Dr Chris Palmer is a Harvard psych who treats his clients with lifestyle (and medication when necessary) centred around a keto diet. He claims incredible success for mental illness such as schizophrenia. He doesn’t claim as much success with ASD but does notice improvements in some markers. He has a new book out called Brain Energy where he explains the science behind a keto diet for mental illness. Essentially it’s a metabolic dysfunction within the mitochondria.
If you search through your favourite podcast app you will likely come across some useful interviews with him.
Thank you. Yes, I've read his work. I've use a ketogenic diet for psychosis in my own home and teach clients how to. In my opinion, mental health issues are often related to metabolism and nutrient or macro imbalances.
