Can Limiting High Fructose Corn Syrup Help Autistic Children?

Apr 23, 2012 | Carb Syndrome - Case Studies

I was wondering if your patients get better when they abstain from high fructose corn syrup? Your definition of the disease includes the word “reversible.”

I have worked with an autistic child at this end who got better and remains well by not consuming high fructose corn syrup or food ingredients known to contain trace amounts of mercury, cadmium and lead. This is a child who was at the peak of his disease totally unmanageable.

In my medical practice of over 30 years I learned long ago about the importance of considering the total spectrum of my patient’s lives when trying to manage their chronic medical problems. As you point out so well, our current reimbursement system makes it difficult for physicians to do so unless they are working in a team environment.
