Marian Hope Center believes that to maximize the full potential of a child, it is important to focus on all aspects of a child. What a child eats is fuel for his/her brain, behavior and overall health. To make the most gains out of our therapy services, it is so important that our children feel “good” on the inside.
Diets full of processed and refined foods are stripped of essential nutrients that the brain and body needs for optimal functioning. We want our families to be educated on proper nutrition and embrace the value of nutrient-rich diet. Check out our blog, Helping Families Through Nutrition. We also offer a variety of individualized nutrition services.
Individualized Nutrition Services
Our therapists and educators work with our registered dietitians to help families understand and embrace better nutrition for their child and for the whole family.
