FreeAutism Research Institute Online Education
This talk covers the importance of self-care for adult caregivers, and focuses on reasonable dietary and lifestyle choices and appropriate basic nutritional supplementation. We will talk briefly about all of the current dietary trends, what to believe, what is based in evidence and research, and how to make choices for yourself and your family amid all the noise. This talk will review the key components to success with the above strategies by focusing on two major components that wear us down – poor sleep habits and poor nutrition. It will review sleep hygiene and natural sleep support options, healthy dietary intake for all, and nutritional supplements to consider for acute support when needed.
