A nutrition-focused guide for navigating special-needs mealtimes

Drawing on the nutritional component of Robert Melillo’s Brain Balance Program, this guide connects food routines with the practical challenges families may face around selective eating, sensory issues, and possible food sensitivities. It distinguishes everyday fussiness from more persistent eating problems, then lays out an elimination-diet approach for identifying sensitivities. Parents are also given guidance on supplements, nutrients discussed in relation to brain health, and child-friendly meal preparation. The book frames nutrition as one part of a broader approach to supporting children with autism spectrum disorders, ADHD, dyslexia, and other neurological differences, with an emphasis on workable strategies for busy households.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Parents and caregivers of children with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, or other neurological differences
  • Families navigating picky eating or sensory-related mealtime challenges
  • Caregivers seeking recipes and nutrition-planning guidance for children with special needs
