Description

We all know the old adage of You Are What You Eat, but how true is this for our

neurodivergent children?


Having a regular healthy diet when you are neurodivergent can provide a whole range of challenges. Sensory preferences, digestive discomfort, anxiety about food and other issues can make getting proper nutrition really tough.


But what are the benefits of finding ways to inject certain nutrients into your child’s diet?




Can nutrition have an impact on our child’s brain health and ability to manage their energy and regulation? And, on the flip side, what happens when a child’s diet is overlooked?




We talk to dietician Eleni Georgiou about where to place your energy when trying to get your child to eat well, where you will get your most bang for buck and what to just let slide.




We get right into the guts of all things food.
