I think there is enough evidence that points to a gut connection with a whole host of disorders. Leaky gut, and mal-absorption seem to be connected to Autism, ADHD, and auto-immune disorders. Unfortunately this area of research is unlikely to make big pharma any money…….

As a white water kayaker, I get to ingest more bacteria than most people, and have noticed a correlation between my well being, and taking antibiotics. Unfortunately the differences in well being are really only noticeable over long time periods; making direct connections difficult.

Certainly for me, nutrient deficiency is connected to my ADHD symptoms, and also blood pressure, heart rate, pseudogout, anxiety, and delayed onset muscle soreness. I would have been very skeptical of an ADHD connection, if it were not for the physical issues that are much more quantifiable.
