Special Diets for Special Kids

Join Lisa for a special cooking demonstration!

Lisa Lewis earned her Ph.D. in Biological Anthropology from New York University. Lisa’s wealth of knowledge about diet and autism comes from her experiences as the mother of a child with autism who successfully followed a gluten-free, casein-free diet. Lisa’s first edition of Special Diets for Special Kids appeared in 1998 and Volume 2 followed in 2001. Her first two books have been helping children and adults with autism, ADHD, celiac disease, and other disorders.

Lisa also gained knowledge about this topic while working with many other parents who turned to the Autism Network for Dietary Intervention (ANDI) that she co-founded with Karyn Seroussi in 1999. ANDI provides information and support to parents all over the world. Their years of research resulted in the publication of The Encyclopedia of Dietary Intervention.

The knowledge she gained these past years and her changed perspective on the topic motivated her to spend the time and effort to update her two Special Diets books into one indispensable resource Special Diets for Special Kids, Volumes 1 and 2 Combined: Over 200 REVISED and NEW gluten-free casein-free recipes, plus research on the positive effects for children with autism, ADHD, allergies, celiac disease, and more!
