Can Autism Be Treated With Stem Cell Transplantation?

Respected Dr.B.S .Rajpoot, Namaskar. First of all I will congratulate u for treating the autistic child of 15 years by transplanting the stem cell. It is a historic research in the disability field particularly in the case of autism. For the last so many years there was no treatment of autism. Stem cell transplantation will prove a sparking future in the life of disabled persons having a Mental Retardation, Autism, Cerebral palsy and Down syndrome problem etc. I am residing in small town of Shimla H.P. My son is having Autism and he is 23 years old. As u R aware that the Autism is a brain disorder that often makes it hard to communicate with and relate to others. With autism, the different areas of the brain fail to work together. Most people with autism will always have some trouble relating to speech. But early diagnosis and treatment have helped more and more people with autism to reach their full potential. But in my case my son has been diagnosed by 300 Doctors but with no improvement in his speech / memory/IQ level. He don t have allergy with any food. He can’t speak, some time he become an aggressive mood. He will have to support by the parents to his day to day routine work. Physically he is all right. In the light of above please suggest me can my son be treated by stem cell transplantation therapy? . Early response will be appreciated please. With warm regards. Sincerely yours C.L.TEGTA, MOBILE 0000 AND 0000.

Hi,

First of all, the stem cells therapy has been used successfully in the treatment of spinal cord injury. In the other neurological disorders, the stem cells therapy are under trial. Second, the treatment of autism is divided into three parts: the medical treatment, psychological treatment and diet control.

The psychological treatment helps the patient learn more social skills. The diet rich in tryptophan such as Turkey breast,a banana with milk,dates with milk and honey with milk can help control aggressive behavior. Moreover, folic acid and omega 3 supplement once per day before meals every other day can help the patient.

Too much saturated fat, artificial additives, salt in food can make the symptoms worse. Tomatoes, spinach and canned food can also make the symptoms worse.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mustafa, Neurologist
