Potential factors impacting reduced sulfation include phenosulfotransferase activity, sulfate availability, and the presence of the gut toxin p-cresol. Epsom salt baths, vitamin supplementation, and fecal microbiota transplant therapy are all potential treatments with promising results. Sulfate levels have potential for use as a diagnostic biomarker, allowing for earlier diagnosis and intervention.</p> Autism sulfate ASD sulfation Sulfation Deficiency in Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Literature Review on Prevalence, Potential Treatments, and Use as a Diagnostic Biomarker
