Arizona State University Study Proves That Nutrition And Dietary Intervention Effective At Improving Autism
Contrary to historical medical beliefs and public education and perception, new controlled twelve-month study shows that diet and nutritional intervention significantly improves the symptoms, cognition, digestive health, and behavior in individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
San Francisco, CA – May 30, 2018 – Nourishing Hope, a world leading authority on nutrition and dietary intervention for the healing of Autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders, today announced that a recent study by Dr. James Adams, Director of the Autism/Asperger’s Research Program at Arizona State University, co-authored by Julie Matthews of Nourishing Hope, definitively proves that nutrition and dietary intervention do, in fact, significantly reduce the symptoms and behaviors associated with individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
Dr. Adams’ study, published in a peer-reviewed journal, Comprehensive Nutritional and Dietary Intervention for Autism Spectrum Disorder (download study here), A Randomized, Controlled 12-Month Trial, shows a direct and irrefutable correlation between nutrition and improvements in autism symptoms. Dr. Adams has published dozens of research papers over 15 years of investigating nutrition and autism, showing similar outcomes.
“The positive results of this study confirm that a comprehensive nutritional and dietary intervention is proven and effective in improving non-verbal IQ, Autism behaviors, developmental age, and other symptoms in most individuals with ASD,” says Dr. Adams. “For 16 years Nourishing Hope has provided scientifically based nutrition strategies that help children and adults with autism around the world. Now, their founder Julie Matthews has contributed to this “gold standard” research study that substantiates their approach.”
The comprehensive nutrition approach significantly improved:
