My entry into this field came when my son was diagnosed with an array of environmental and food allergies after years of struggling with serious attention and behavioral problems. The culprits included common foods like peanuts, tree nuts, eggs, soy, wheat, peas, potatoes, strawberries, green beans, peaches, green peppers, carrots, apples and pears.
As you can imagine, this diagnosis drastically changed our lives – surprisingly, for the better! The attention and behavioral issues DISAPPEARED, but the frustration, helplessness and steep learning curve that came with adapting to everyday life while ensuring my son’s optimal nutrition drove me to help other parents change their childrens’ futures.
