i wonder if they controlled for the selective diets asd children have?


To be fair, the article is only promising diagnosis, which doesn't care about the direction of causality.


That would only work if there was a one-to-one correlation of autism with having a selective diet and it being the same diet for all.

And diagnosing selective diet by itself by just asking questions isn't that hard anyway, is it? If it was a cheatcode to a diagnosis I think we'd figured it out already.
