In this episode of Autism Help, Heather McKay explores avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder, commonly known as ARFID, and how it can affect autistic people.
Heather discusses the different treatments currently offered for ARFID and explains why some approaches may be ineffective or even make eating more difficult for autistic people, including contributing to the loss of safe foods. She also introduces some of the changes that may help make support more appropriate and accessible.
