## Resource

Parents face endless frustration watching kids struggle with focus, behavior, and development while doctors offer limited solutions. A tailored diet approach can help identify hidden food triggers and nutrient gaps, significantly improving symptoms and quality of life. In today's episode, I chat with Julie Matthews about using food as powerful medicine for children facing autism, ADHD, and other neurodevelopmental issues. Julie shares practical ways to personalize nutrition plans, such as spotting sensitivities to gluten and dairy or addressing gut dysbiosis. We cover research-backed diets that reduce inflammation and hyperactivity, plus tips for handling picky eaters and starting small for big results. "We can remove problematic foods, and we can add nourishing foods that are going to help supply the nutrients they need for their brain to function." ~ Julie Matthews In This Episode: - Recommended diets for ADHD - Food sensitivities vs food allergies - Autism and the gut-brain connection - How to repopulate the healthy gut bacteria - Research findings on therapeutic diets for autism - 12-step personalized nutrition plan - Therapeutic diets for kids with autism - RFK Junior's advocacy on food safety - Navigating picky eaters and introducing new foods - Working with clients and doing functional tests Products & Resources Mentioned: Bon Charge Blue Light Blocking Glasses: Get 15% off with code WENDY at https://boncharge.com Organifi Happy Drops: Save 20% with code MYERSDETOX at https://organifi.com/myersdetox Organifi Collagen: Use code MYERSDETOX for 20% off at https://organifi.com/myersdetox Chef's Foundry P600 Ceramic Cookware: Get 20% off with code WENDY20 at https://chefsfoundry.com Heavy Metals Quiz: Take it at https://heavymetalsquiz.com About Julie Matthews: Julie…
