Multiple Studies Find Ketogenic Diet Helps Reverse Autistic Symptoms

In late 2015, results from a National Health Interview Survey regarding the rate of autism in the United States sent shockwaves across the nation. Contrary to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) official estimate that 1 in 68 American children are now autistic, the new data found 1 in 45 children, ages 3 through 17, have been diagnosed with the disorder. While the new numbers were calculated from a parental survey and aren’t an official replacement for the CDC estimate, the agency admits its data has limitations and could very well have underestimated the prevalence of autism in the U.S.

Regardless of which estimate is considered correct, the fact remains that parents, physicians and researchers have all seen a disturbing upward trend in autism over the last several decades. The debate continues as to why autism is on the rise, but there are no easy answers. Many within the medical and scientific community, as well as resourceful parents, have turned their attention instead to finding treatments and therapies that help ease, if not entirely erase, hallmark symptoms of the disorder. One approach which has shown promise is the use of a ketogenic diet.
