Publisher Comments:

The best kid-friendly recipes and guide to the gluten-free milk-free diet for ADHD and Autism.What it is. Why it works. How to do it.

The Centers for Disease Control reports significant increases in Autism and ADHD - both affecting primarily boys. The CDC estimates that 1 out of 175 children (age 4 to 17) currently have Autism (300,000). Before 1985, Autism occurred in less than 1 out of 2000. ADHD is much more common in that it affects 4.4 million U.S. children (age 4 to 17).

Common to both of these conditions is the negative impact of certain foods - especially milk products and glutens such as wheat(and to a lesser degree - soy and corn.) One of the challenges that parents face is coping with children who have picky appetites and crave the very foods that affect their behavior, focus and development. The other challenge is finding ways to get their children to eat healthy foods and improve their nutritional status.

The uniqueness of this book is that it not only provides gluten-free milk-free substitutes and recipes, it provides successful suggestions for feeding the picky eater. The authors share details about just how and why the diet works. The specialty ingredients are explained and extensive sources provided. There are also testimonials from the parents and from the children themselves.

Synopsis:

This is a cookbook filled with "kid friendly" recipes formulated especially for children with developmental disorders such as Autism.

This is a wonderful cookbook with nutritious recipes that many of my patients have found to be very kid friendly. The first few chapters are a well written explanation of why the Gluten and Casein free diet can be so beneficial for kids with neurodevelopmental disorders.

This is my first choice for GF/CF cookbooks!
Warmly, Dr. Leigh Ann Chapman
