Healthy Habits: The Complete Autism Spectrum Disorder Health & Diet Guide

If you have a child with ASD, you may be looking for more information about what it is, and things you can do to help. A new book ASD: THE COMPLETE AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER HEALTH & DIET GUIDE has all the basics you could ever want to know, and more. The book combines practical information, written to educate without confusing. It also includes nearly 200 recipes that follow a GFCF (gluten-free/casein-free) diet, which has helped many families whose children with ASD also suffer from food sensitivities that exacerbate symptoms.

Since nearly two-thirds of ASD kids have digestive issues and/or are picky eaters, this can lead to nutritional deficiencies. If this describes your child, be sure to connect with your medical professional team about maintaining good nutrition, and consider keeping a food diary to identify preferences or foods and their effect on behavior or digestive symptoms.

If you have a child with ASD and are trying a GFCF diet, this book has a ton of great recipes. The recipes are family-friendly, so you don't have to make special food just for one kid. Even if your kid doesn't have ASD, the recipes alone make this book with picking up if you have a child with wheat and dairy intolerances!
