Abstract

Autism is a neurological condition that affects a person's capacity to communicate and relate to others. Current drugs are ineffective in treating the symptoms of autism spectrum disorder. Symptoms of autism spectrum disorder are frequently co-morbid with a diagnosis of epilepsy. Ketogenic diets are remarkably effective in treatments for epilepsy in children in the same time there are several studies showed the effectiveness of ketogenic in Autism and behavior asso- ciated with it.

This study tests the effects of ketogenic diet feeding in Autism and their behavior, a child with autism spectrum disorder. The child was started on ketogenic diet formulas starting at 5 years of age, diet protocols continued and performance of tests of sociability and re- petitive behavior was assessed. A ketogenic diet improved behavior- al characteristics of autism spectrum disorder. Ketogenic diet feed- ing improved multiple measures of sociability and reduced repetitive behavior in autism child. Positive gene mutation of autism may be an important factors in showing the response of high lipid diet in those children.
