Julie Matthews Takes Autism Diet Message Global
Sharing the Nourishing Hope Message with Parents
Parents deserve to know and understand every helpful healing option for their child. Many children with autism exhibit demonstrable physical symptoms that go unaddressed due to a narrow focus of autism as a strictly psychiatric disorder. However, significant scientific data and overwhelming anecdotal analysis indicate a link between autism symptoms and diet. Doing her part to spread autism treatment awareness, Julie speaks to parents, physicians and wellness professionals at leading biomedical autism conference venues and small parent events to share the knowledge and inspiration of hope for autism.
Leading autism practitioners believe that diet is the most important place to begin treatment upon diagnosis. As an international leading advocate of diet for autism, Julie has expanded her efforts to inform parents and healthcare practitioners about the importance of autism diet, nutrition intervention and supplementation. Julie believes parents should be fully informed about the treatment options available to their children and the need for conscious attention to the special nutritional requirements of kids on the spectrum.
In her presentation and interviews, Julie explains the scientific rationale for special diets, the gut-brain connection, foundations of a healthy diet, autism specific diet options, and particulars on getting started and evolving special diets for children with autism. She is rich with personal insights that help support and encourage parents as they successfully implement nutrition intervention.
