Summary of Transcript:
This YouTube video provides an overview of a diet structure that is recommended for people with autism. It suggests a “tweaked ketogenic diet” with 80-90% fat, 10-20% carbs, and 20% protein. It recommends adding MCT oil to bypass certain mechanisms in the liver and gallbladder, as well as veggies, non-starchy fiber, leafy greens, electrolytes, B vitamins, and trace minerals. The video also encourages viewers to comment their success stories if they have benefited from the content.

Summary of Description:
The ketogenic diet is a structure that could potentially help provide significant improvements in the communication skills, sociability, cognitive function, demeanor, and self-control of someone with autism. This diet consists of 5% carbs, 20% protein, and 75-90% fat, with 25% of the fat being MCT oil. Foods such as fatty meat, coconut oil, tallow, eggs, fatty fish, and fatty nuts should be included. Electrolytes, B vitamins, and trace minerals should also be added to the diet.

Let’s talk about the best diet for autism. This is the overview and percentages of macros so you can create a meal plan for someone with autism. 

This structure could potentially help provide significant improvements in the communication skills, sociability, cognitive function, demeanor, and self-control of someone with autism. 

The typical ketogenic diet:
• 5% carbs 
• 20% protein 
• 75% fat 

I think someone with autism should do the healthy version of keto by adding more fat (80-90% fat) and keeping the ingredients healthy. I would suggest that 25% of the fat be MCT oil. MCT oil can immediately give the person ketones. This will feed the cells directly to help promote improvement in the brain tissue. It may also be good to bring the person’s carbohydrates down to 10-20g. 

The healthy version of keto would consist of a lot of non-starchy vegetables with a lot of fiber, a lot of leafy greens, or green powder. The person may want to avoid dairy, casein, gluten, and ghee. 

The diet could consist of foods, such as:
• Fatty meat/fatty sausage 
• Coconut oil 
• Tallow 
• Eggs 
• Fatty fish 
• Fatty nuts 

You would also want to add electrolytes, B vitamins, and trace minerals to the diet.
