Review
“Lisa Lewis’ contribution to the understanding of biomedical aspects of autism have been considerable. . . . Her new book also concentrates on the practical applications of knowledge and understanding. It is well-researched, well written, and very much needed.”
Paul Shattock, Autism Research Unit, University of Sunderland, Sunderland, England
"The writings of Lisa Lewis have made a huge impact on the field of autism. As an educator and a parent, Dr. Lewis has been instrumental in describing the issues of gluten and casein sensitivities, and how these problems affect the behavior of autistic individuals. She has changed the lives of many autistic individuals and their families.”
Stephen Edelson, PhD, Director, Center for the Study of Autism, Salem, OR
“What will change, and is changing, the minds of the medical establishment is activist efforts by intelligent, well-informed and highly motivated parents like Mary Callahan, Lisa Lewis and many others.”
Dr. Bernard Rimland, Autism Research Institute, From the Foreword to Special Diets for Special Kids I

Jenny McCarthy made this book even more famous when she referenced it extensively in her 2008 bestseller, Louder Than Words:
"I knew the months ahead would seem like years while I waited for services, so I decided to educate myself on diet interventions. I ordered a book called Special Diets for Special Kids Two. … The book came in the mail. Special Diets for Special Kids Two. I couldn't wait to read it and fill my eager heart with more knowledge. I was blown away when I read that mothers often noticed that their autistic children were malnourished because they couldn’t absorb nutrients from food. … Could it really be true? Could diet make that much of an impact? … I found it completely fascinating and exciting that a diet could help. … I couldn’t believe that the gut could correlate to the brain and that what I fed Evan could have a direct link to his behaviors. But I was inspired and willing to give a diet a shot. … so I made this my new mission."
There is a little question that the rate of autism has been climbing, although the reasons behind the increase are the subject of vigorous debate. Read the first page

Buy the first book and borrow this one...,

This review is from: Special Diets for Special Kids, Two: New! More Great Tasting Recipes & Tips for Implementing Special Diets to Aid in the Treatment of Autism and Related Developmental Disorders (Hardcover-spiral)
Although this book has some good recipes, it isn't the book the first one is. Her first book had recipes that were much easier to cook and to adapt to your own child's needs (if they had any yeast problems or other allergies). This cook book is good but if you can only buy one, spend the money on the first one or on a Carol Fenster cookbook.
