Autism typically has a digestive distress aspect - when we cut the sugar my girl went from no sleep & constant pain to a whole new world. One cracker? Says it no sleep, spinning, etc.
Diet was super important.
I suggest watching The Magic Pill that I linked to as it does a decent job of explaining the diet. One of the things about keto is bad into. I thought I understood it before I dug deeper.
Sugar / carbs is hidden in so much of what we consume - as well as bad oils. Get up right now and walk to your fridge and start grabbing random condiments etc. now as you do so / look at all of the shit that has sugar added that really has no reason to. They pack sugar into all sorts of shit and is almost a “how much can we get away with” deal. Ketchup in a lot of cases has a shit ton.
When you actually get into ketosis your body changes - I started craving spicy food like crazy. Capsaicin. After more research the thinking is that after the body gets out of a sugar dependent shock - it recognizes the parasites that are in the gastrointestinal track that we’re feeding on the sugars / carbs - and knows spicy food will kill the parasites.
Ever wonder why spicy food is more common in more poor areas?
Edit: I also went from prediabetic to perfectly healthy & running etc inside of year. I lost %50 of my total weight
I can only say what keto did for us.
