A properly developing and functioning brain is strongly related to what you eat, what you digest and the state of your intestinal flora. This fact is supported by practice and science.
Dr. Natascha Campbell-McBride set up The Cambridge Nutrition Clinic in 1998. As the parent of a child who has fully recovered from a severe learning disability, she is particularly aware of the problems faced by other parents like her and spends much of her time helping these families. She realized that nutrition plays a crucial role in helping children and adults overcome their conditions and pioneered this field with probiotics.
Her willingness to share her knowledge has been reflected in her contributions to many publications and giving presentations on the topics of learning disabilities and digestive problems at many international seminars and conferences. This book summarizes her experience and knowledge, including her most recent work.
She is convinced that the link between physical and mental health, the food we eat and the drink we drink and the state of our digestive system is established and the results of her work support her position on this subject. At her clinic, parents discuss all aspects of their child's condition, backed by the knowledge that they are not just talking to a professional, but to someone who shares their experience. Her lived knowledge of the challenges these parents face puts her advice in a class of its own.
Natascha Campbell-McBride studied Medicine and then Neurology and Human Nutrition. At her clinic in Cambridge she focuses on nutrition for children and adults with behavioral and learning disorders and adults with digestive and immune disorders.
Dr. Natascha Campbell-McBride is to be congratulated on putting together a thoroughly researched and daring book.
