The World of Autism

Dr. Jeff Knight is on a mission to helping families find greater hope, freedom, peace of mind and confidence in helping their children that suffer from symptoms related to autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Knowing that there is no one “cure” to autism, Dr. Knight breaks down key topics and solutions to helping children with autism dealing with the myriad of obstacles related to gut and digestive health, proper nutrition, challenges with sleep (insomnia), detoxification of the brain and body, neurological, behavioral and social challenges and creating more awareness on treatment options that can help children become the happiest, healthiest versions of themselves. After spending the past several years serving and treating children with autism, Dr. Knight is excited to provide greater insight to help families everywhere. In this podcast Dr. Knight will sprinkle great information, education, solutions, interviews with experts and stories and experiences of hope for parents and families to keep pushing forward amidst the trials of autism!
