Treat to liver to heal the brain? Sounds counter-intuitive but it's the truth. Today we sit down with Dr. Jeff Knight to map a practical plan any caregiver of an autism/spectrum child can begin: support the drainage funnel—liver, colon, kidneys, lymph—so the nervous system stops running on overload. When elimination improves and liver burden drops, behavior often softens, sleep deepens, and everyday stressors don’t hit as hard.
You’ll also hear grounded stories that put hope within reach. None of this is about cure claims; it’s about stacking small wins—better poop, better sleep, fewer tantrums—until daily life feels lighter. Think singles and doubles that put your family in position for bigger, better moments.
If you’re ready to trade overwhelm for a method, start with the liver, protect the nervous system, and build at a pace your child can tolerate. Reach out to Dr. Jeff for his guidance at healthempoweredfamilies.com
