About this title

Synopsis

Help Your Picky Eaters Expand Their Food Choices!

Broccoli Boot Camp presents clearly written, commonsense behavioral interventions to successfully expand diet variety and preferences for healthy foods. It begins with the simple premise that when children are encouraged to taste and consume tiny portions of new foods (using the authors’ system), they learn to accept and enjoy them as part of their regular diets.

Other topics include:

• Difficult behaviors encountered at mealtime
• Nutritional deficiencies seen in selective eaters
• Food allergies
• And much more!

The second edition of Broccoli Boot Camp contains updated and revised content that addresses selective eating patterns across a wider range of children, including those diagnosed with issues such as avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder and pediatric feeding disorder.

There are two new chapters. Chapter 18 focuses specifically on fading or stopping a plan, and Chapter 21 is a guide for clinicians and professionals.

Using compelling, real-life case studies, Broccoli Boot Camp gives parents the tools they need to promote healthy eating for their child, as well as improving the family mealtime experience!
