My Son will Only Eat Dairylea Dunkers - ARFIDS

April 03, 2021 • Meesh and Christelle • Season 3 • Episode 47

The lovely Sia is back raising awareness about ARFIDS
ARFIDS - Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder is a condition characterised by a person avoiding certain types of food and having a very restricted intake of food.
Sia's son has an ARFIDS and autism diagnosis and tells us about her son's ARFIDS, explaining Dairylea Dunkers as his "safe food" and almost only food he will eat.
Fascinating and informative as always.
