Nourishing Hope is an autism nutrition practice dedicated to the health and healing of children with autism through diet and nutrition intervention. We believe that nutrition is a fundamental principle in helping children on the spectrum reach their full potential. We partner with parents and caregivers to help them successfully apply autism diets, nutrition fundamentals, enzymes and supplements as a complement to physician recommended treatments.
Led by Julie Matthews, Certified Nutrition Consultant and leading autism nutrition specialist, our practice is located in San Francisco, California and reaches out to families worldwide. We provide private consultations, physician partnering, group education and scientifically-based material to assist with autism nutrition.
If you would like to have Julie partner with you and your child or children as your private, personal autism nutritionist, visit Consultations and get familiar with the support and services we are dedicated to when serving your family. We look forward to getting to know you better and helping your child reach their full potential!
