The brain is remarkable.

We use it for every function of our existence.

Our diet plays an imperative role in nourishing our bodies that strongly depend on optimal brain function. In the first 1000 days of life, nutritional programming takes place that forms the foundation of our health and wellbeing.

Neuro-disabilities have specific nutritional needs. From birth to adulthood, nutrition plays a critical role in every phase of life. Some conditions have a high risk in developing particular nutritional deficiencies and require specific nutrients to thrive.

Neuro-Nutrition is a platform where we have put all our expertise, skills and experience in special needs nutrition together for parents, caretakers, families, healthcare professionals, and facilities. We guide you on your journey in dealing with neuro-disabilities. Our focus is to provide our clients with the necessary skills and knowledge to support and develop this area of special needs nutrition. Everyone should grow and develop to the best of their abilities. Imagine we can put a nutritional plan together that includes all the nutrients your brain needs to grow, function, and develop. A plan that is realistic and sufficient for your child and where safe and efficient feeding is essential. Expert legal reports are provided for medico-legal cases. In-depth courses for healthcare professionals are presented on an annual basis to improve your current way of working and stay on the forefront of special needs nutrition.

The heartbeat of this practice is our clients and each special-needs child. We strive to improve the quality of life of children affected by any form of neuro-disability, and their families, by addressing all nutrition-related concerns. Successful stories and constructive feedback from courses inspire us to keep going.
