215: Autism + ADHD, Empowering Parents, Children’s Nutrition | Greer McGuinness

In this episode of Realfoodology, I sit down with registered dietitian Greer McGinnis, who specializes in autism, ADHD, and pediatrics. Greer shares her personal journey as a mother of a nonverbal child with autism and the effective strategies she used to help him find his voice. We explore the challenges parents face when navigating autism, the importance of nutrition, and the concerning issue of glyphosate exposure in children. This conversation is packed with valuable insights and practical tips that I think will really resonate with families facing similar situations.
