    Work - next steps

    Ok thanks. I am working towards a new role. Whilst in the past i am great on interviews i am constantly fighting my desire to tell 100% of the truth rather than sell myself.

    Lactobacillus reuteri and probiotics

    Lactobacillus reuteri and probiotics

    Thanks, @Fino, in response, that's correct - I did tap this question out too quickly - it is the production of oxytocin in neurotypicals that I seek in order to alleviate the symptoms of autism, especially under stress conditions. Regarding the nasal spray, I have looked at this and that is an...
