have you ever wondered if you need to be changing your child's diet once they've been diagnosed as autistic? how do you know when dietary supports are needed?

in this episode, I sit down with Dr. Nina-Marie Rueda, a naturopath and nutritional expert who works with families of neurodivergent children. in our conversation, we get into the nitty gritty on myths and truths about dietary recommendations for autistic children, the importance of a healthy conversations around food and mealtime, and common problems that may result from nutritional and physiological imbalances.

this episode will help you learn:

the definition of a naturopath and what health factors are assessed by naturopathic doctors
theories on dietary shifts to best support neurodivergent children
a breakdown of what different nutritional tests mean and example recommendations for dietary changes for maximum nutritional benefit

*please note: in this episode, both identity-first (autistic child) and person-first language (child with autism / ASD) are used. although as clinicians and practitioners we are slowly learning to shift our language and take the lead from the autistic community, the stance of this podcast is that we ultimately want to honor what each child and family prefer. Dr. Nina-Marie shares her perspective as a parent as well as some of the families she has worked with.
