1 in 36 children have autism. If you work in pediatrics, I can guarantee that you are faced with questions about selective eating and mealtime meltdowns. For today's episode, I brought the expert in feeding neurodivergent kids back on the podcast. Breta Alstrom provides useful strategies to help even the most cautious eater learn to try new foods.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- How sensory progressions and food chaining can be used to expand the child's food preferences
- What key micronutrients might be missing in the child's diet and what you can do about it
- Unique techniques to overcome mealtime stress and anxiety
- Realistic expectations of the child's feeding journey and how a positive mealtime environment fosters exploration and joy
