Sugar
Not only is sugar addictive, but it also is pro-inflammatory. Research found that people with autism, like those with type 2 diabetes, have impaired glucose tolerance and excessive levels of insulin. Because of this, consuming sugar may magnify improper insulin signalling.
Avoiding sugar and refined carbohydrates and increasing lean protein can dramatically improve concentration and judgment, and decrease impulsiveness.
