Changing a child's diet can make a profound impact on behavioral and learning difficulties as well as physical symptoms such as skin rashes or digestive problems. Now, in study after study, science is taking dietary interventions for autism disorders from the realm of alternative medicine into the medical mainstream.

The question of why has now turned into a question of how:

  • How do I convince my child to try new foods?
  • What ingredients contain gluten?
  • Which diet should we try?
  • What kind of testing can we do?
  • Can this help older children and adults?
  • And if it helps, how long do we have to keep it up?”
In 1995, Karyn Seroussi and Lisa Lewis created an international parent network that has educated thousands about dietary and biomedical interventions for autism spectrum disorders. Thirteen years, three books, countless conferences, and over fifty thousand emails later, they decided to put it all together. The sum of their knowledge is here, in one easy-to-use reference guide.
 
Inside this book:
  • The research behind dietary interventions and the principles behind the different types of diets
  • Important information about nutrition, bowel health, digestive enzymes, and gastrointestinal flora
  • How to get everyone on board: family, school, community...and even your child
  • An easy-to-use, alphabetized, “encyclopedia style” format
  • Can this help older children and adults?
  • Meal suggestions, food lists, and loads of ideas that will make special diets work for your family!
