Abstract

The Bristol stools forms scale (BSF scale) was used to compare the gastrointestinal health of autistic children before and after they took a probiotic for three months to the health of children who did not take a probiotic. Methods and Procedures of Research for the Study Case study participants' ages ranged from 9 to 16, and all had been given an autism diagnosis. The DSM-5 has diagnostic criteria for autism spectrum disorder. A research study in which both a pretest and posttest are administered to the same set of participants. For a full twelve months, study participants took a cocktail of three distinct multi-strain probiotics. The Bristol faecal form scale, sometimes known as the BSF scale, was used to record information at weeks 0 and 6. I found that the intensity of my stomach problems diminished after using probiotic medication.
