Summary: The Down Syndrome Nutrition Handbook
Comment: Posted for, Brian Chicoine, MD of the Adult Down Syndrome Center
The Down Syndrome Nutrition Handbook is an outstanding resource for people with Down syndrome throughout their life span. It contains excellent information and practical suggestions for people with Down syndrome and their families. A wide variety of topics are addressed from general nutrition to nutritional intervention for diabetes mellitus, celiac disease and other health issues.
The book is well written, person-centered, and health-centered. It is beneficial when read cover-to-cover as well as when saved for use as a reference book. In addition to the writing style, the pictures make it a valuable education tool for people with a wide variety of reading abilities.
I highly recommend this book for people with Down syndrome, their families and anyone who wants to help them with their nutritional goals.

Summary: Excellent Resource!
Comment: I have read several books on Down Syndrome, and this is one of the best. It has so much information, and is easy to read. The easy to use 'tools' offered in this book are great. Suggestions in this book will be helpful throughout a lifetime. While my child is in his late teens, it is still helpful for us, in preparing for his adult life. I also enjoyed reading about the younger children, and thinking 'I remember that, and I wished I had this book then'. I would recommend this book to parents, educators, and any other professionals also.
