Description

 

Food impacts brain health, learning and behavior! Are you surprised?

In this episode, I chat with Julie Matthews, a nutrition expert and mentor I’ve learned from, about how food impacts learning, behavior, and focus—especially for kids with autism.

We break down picky eating, gut health, and why simple nutrition changes can make a big difference. Julie shares practical tips parents can start using right away.

  • Can food really help kids focus and learn?

  • Are artificial additives making things worse?

  • What’s the link between gut health and brain function?

Julie also introduces her upcoming book, The Personalized Autism Nutrition Plan, which empowers parents to create tailored nutrition strategies for their children.
