The UltraMind Solution

About a month and a half ago, my husband was watching a program on PBS by Dr. Mark Hyman. He was talking about Autism. One of my son’s has been diagnosed with Aspergers Syndrome, or High Functioning Autism. The doctor talked a lot about diet and nutrition and how many of our modern day problems are because of our modern day eating styles. We have seen a huge difference in our son since he began a Gluten Free diet last July. His mood seems to be more stable so we see much fewer of his rage cycle than we did before. He had felt much better and had fewer instances of bowel troubles. We had personally seen what a change in diet can do for a person. What he said was so intriguing we immediately ordered his book.

The book arrived about a week later and I began to consume it. It reads much like my old Zoology textbooks from college in some places. I enjoyed that. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Zoology, but following graduation have done little with my degree as I have chosen to be a SAHM. Many of the things he says in the book “rang true” to me.
