Elaine Gottschall wanted to share what she has learned in the three decades since her four-year-old daughter was diagnosed as having severe, incurable ulcerative colitis.

The book is a result of her uncharted odyssey to keep her child alive and stave off an ileostomy (surgical removal of the colon and replacement with an external bag).

Elaine is convinced that proper nutrition is often an alternative to heavy medication and surgery. Many diseases can be prevented, alleviated, or cured by nothing more than the correct diet.

Children with autism are physically sick and in pain.

Autism is a whole body disorder; a complex, multi-system health problem, encompassing the central nervous system, immune system, endocrine system, and gastrointestinal system. As a result, the physical effects of autism can impair speech, cognition, metabolic health, behavior, sleep, mood, and every part of a child and family’s life.

Most of these children have severe gastrointestinal problems that are unrecognized and therefore untreated. Early biomedical treatment is essential so that these children can have a better chance to learn, communicate, experience real joy and happiness, and develop warm and satisfying relationships with the people in their lives.

The Gottschall Autism Center will provide an individualized biomedical, nutritional, and parent educational program. Families are given the opportunity to relax and reclaim their optimism in a respectful, loving environment. No one else can match the experience and dedication of a parent. We seek to empower parents by giving them the tools they need to help their child work towards health.
