NARC is having its 3rd Webinar entitled “FOOD & AUTISM: Guidelines for Parents”

🗓 27 February, 2021 (Saturday)
⏰ 11.00 am – 12.30 pm

Synopsis:
💥Feeding problems are common in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Parents/caregivers of children with ASD often describe family mealtime as stressful, chaotic, and exhausting.
💥Food selectivity is the most widely recorded feeding problem in ASD. Common dietary patterns in children with ASD include strong preference for processed foods, snacks, and starches concurring with a bias against fruits and vegetables.
💥Challenging mealtime behaviour may occur when the child refuses to eat foods based on texture, taste, or smell; demands only single food item; insists on eating in a specific location; or requires certain utensils.
💥Children with food selectivity are at higher risk of nutritional deficiency syndromes and may increase the risk for overweight and obesity.
💥In this webinar, Dr Siti will provide guidelines for parents on how to overcome food selectivity and dietary preferences of children with autism.
