Leaky Gut & LPS in Autism: Targeted Strategies and Insights

​Discover how gut health may shape neurological and behavioral patterns in patients with autism spectrum disorder.

​In this evidence-informed presentation, Dr. Robert Silverman DC, MS, CNS, CCN, CSCS, CKTP, CES, CIISN, DACBN, DCBCN, HKC, FAKTR will walk you through emerging research on intestinal permeability, immune activation, and food-related responses—connecting the dots between the gut and the brain.

​Dr. Silverman will guide participants through key research on lipopolysaccharides (LPS), the role of microbial balance, and how food sensitivities may contribute to immune challenges. Attendees will gain practical knowledge on available testing options and how to consider gut-focused approaches in clinical practice.
