Diet And Nutrition

What's in this issue?

As you know, holiday-time is approaching, and food is often a focus for many families. Unfortunately, many children with Autism Spectrum Disorder often have picky eating habits, and some may suffer from stomach or intestinal issues. What can happen in the gut can affect the rest of the body, and it is important to know how food affects the various systems. With that in mind, our theme for this month is ‘Diet and Nutrition’. This edition is filled to the brim with articles that touch on mealtime comfort, autism and constipation, picky eating, food texture hypersensitivity, and so much more.
