Synopsis

Written for parents of children with ASD, Autism: Why Food Matters provides you with a comprehensive summary of research and information to understand how and why healthy foods or a modified special diet can help your child. Paula discusses emerging scientific research that looks at ASD as a whole body condition and reveals how food can help relieve and help heal some of the physical and medical co-occurring conditions underlying autism. Writing in an engaging and accessible style, this book leads parents through the reasons why dietary changes matter for every child on the autism spectrum. It gives strategies for feeding a picky or resistant eater and includes issues to consider when beginning a dietary change for your child. You will walk away with the ability to “connect the dots” to help you understand the whole body approach to your child’s condition and the reasons why food matters for all children, especially for those with ASD.
