Autism recovered: What happens with big brother joins the Littlest Pet Shop game

Medical experts say it's not possible to recover autism. We have living proof in the form of three children, that it IS possible. By the time I started this blog, recovery had already happened, but it took years. Parenting children with autism is incredibly difficult but I have to say shifting your parenting skills once they are recovered requires some doing. We're slowly learning and I love sharing the journey. This is a place where I will chronicle our lives at this time and occasionally revisit some of the old times... but only to discuss what we did and learned, what helped and what didn't. Autism will never be missed but the lessons learned during that time of our life are invaluable.

My EASY thing

Recovering children from autism, or recovering anyone from ANY health issue, is not easy. It just isn't. It is my experience that food is at the base of any health recovery option. Everything you put in your mouth either fuels your health or your illness.

Eating enough fruits and veggies isn't easy in any way, shape or form. Our food is processed to death and by the time it get to our plate, it's probably closer to "essence" of fruit or veggie than it is to actually being a raw fruit or vegetable. Health professionals everywhere recommend 7-13 fruits and veggies a DAY to maintain health. To actively pursue healing, you need even more!

But there is a solution to make it a bit easier. It gets 17 fruits, veggies and grains into my kids each day and is SO easy. It's a great tool for moms everywhere looking for a yummy way to get these things into children (and themselves) without a fight. Check out my secret weapon, read the science, listen to the video. VERY educational and explains a lot of what I believe about food and the need for such diligence in what we eat.

Remember, you are what you eat. Don't be a twinkie. :)
