Why we chose this book

Although it's early in the exploration of contributing factors to autism, some people with autism seem to respond to a change in diet. Considering that families become so frustrated, they are willing to try most anything they hear might work. This book gives nutrition counselors and families guidance in which interventions work best with words of guidance and precaution from the author's experience.
