Our relationship with food is complex. Because it’s about way more than food. It’s how you feel about yourself. I want you to feed your mind, nourish your body and fuel your soul.
Ask me questions about diet and nutrition now.

Hi Kirsten,
I am mum to a 8yr old girl, since my daughter was around 3 yrs of age he food intake suddenly became a nightmare, before this becam a problem she would eat veg, sunday roast dinners, jacket potatoes with cheese, but for the last 5 years all she eats are beige and cream coloured food for example chips, raviolli, scrambled egg and toast, white rice and popadums and occassional fruit that is her intake. My GP stated "dont worry, by the time she reaches secondry school and sees her friends eating school dinners she will want to join them" GP stated that she was not underweight and i dont need to worry, my daughter has only got to look at new food offered and states she doesnt like it! My daughter has been diagnosed with autism recently and any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Kirsten, we have just joined Scope. It's great to find you on here. We have been following The Wahls Protocol for nearly 4 years and Sue's PPMS has greatly improved. We are gluten, dairy and processed food free and love watching programmes like "Eat well for less." Sue's T2 diabetes has gone and we love the diet which is paleo based. There seems to be a lot of confusion about coconut oil which we use. Any comments would be helpful. Thanks. Martyn.

Hi Kirsten!
My boy has a suspected food allergy. What should I do? -
Hi @thara- hope you don't mind me answering but as somebody with a severe food allergy, this is a matter for your GP so they can be referred on for further testing and possible diagnosis. This NHS page may help, too. Wishing you and your boy all the best!

I have a few health problem one of wich is type 2 diabetes according to gp it’s looking ok on hb1c but where as when taking my blood glucose it was allwas good at 6,7,8 but feel nauseous and dizzy if go either side of those numbers
but now for a few months it’s been raised at 15 and if goes higher nausea sickness
one question is how can I go out start to walk to begin exercise shout I have loads of carbs before I go also could it be safe to try a keto diet
On top of all this my meds for other conditions cause daily nausea sickness also laboured breathing I do have asthma but the meds seam to make me really hard to breathe at top and bottom range
I really need advice how to get weight down and if possible get out walking to help health and weight I realise I’ve dumped a lot in one go in your lap so just one thing would be a start
