Autism Spectrum, Nutritional & Wellness Support
Adjunctive Functional Health Support Program
¿Para quién es este programa?
This program is for families seeking nutritional and wellness support for common co-occurring issues, introduced alongside their existing care team. It does not aim to change anyone's neurotype and never replaces a developmental pediatrician, neurologist, or behavioral team.
Autism is a neurodevelopmental difference, not a disease to be cured, and this program does not aim to change a patient's neurotype. Its purpose is narrower and supportive: addressing the GI dysfunction, nutrient insufficiencies, sleep disruption, and sensory-regulation needs that are common co-occurring issues for many autistic individuals, in order to support overall comfort, health, and quality of life. This program is intended to run alongside, never in place of, the patient's developmental pediatrician, neurologist, or other primary medical/behavioral team, and any intervention should be introduced collaboratively with family and care team input.
¿Qué aborda?
- GI dysfunction and digestive discomfort
- Nutrient insufficiencies, often tied to a limited diet
- Sleep disruption affecting the whole household
- Sensory-regulation needs
- Feeding and food-selectivity challenges
- General comfort and quality of life

- Support, never a cure The goal is comfort, health, and quality of life, not changing who your child is.
- Start with GI and nutrition Digestive dysfunction and nutrient gaps are common, and often responsive to support.
