We have extensive experience solving complex pediatric cases using the most current laboratory testing and nutraceutical treatments. We treat ADHD, anxiety, depression, developmental delay and autism, neuroimmune syndromes, sensory processing disorder, food sensitivities, eczema, leaky gut and related gastrointestinal disorders, and more.

Going back to the basics is best. Our own Alexis Maple is breaking down the foundations of real health, and spoiler: it’s not complicated!

✨ Eat whole, real foods
💧 Stay hydrated with clean water
😴 Prioritize restorative sleep
🚶 Move your body (bonus points for getting outside!)
☀️ Soak up some sunshine and fresh air
🤝 Invest in your community

When you wake up feeling restored, everything else starts to fall into place. That’s the magic.

Which of these are you working on right now? Drop it in the comments. 👇

Neuronutrition Associates evaluates and treats mold exposure as part of our environmental health approach, because hidden mold can drive inflammation, fatigue, and neurological symptoms. 🦠

So before remodeling my home, I brought in Jesse, a mold detection dog from , and inspector Taylor. Jesse alerted me to areas I suspected, and uncovered a roof leak we didn’t know existed. Taylor then found moisture imbalances in our HVAC system.

Now we can fix the issues and breathe easier. Jana and Caroline have also worked with Taylor, so she is someone we trust when families ask for referrals.

If your child struggles with OCD tendencies, rigidity, or behaviors that seem “stuck,” here’s what might be happening beneath the surface: Glutamate excitotoxicity. 🔥

Glutamate has a purpose, but too much glutamate in the brain can cause dysfunction. The goal? Clear excess glutamate and support GABA to restore inhibitory balance.

C-sections save lives, and for many families, they are absolutely the right and necessary choice. This is not to shame any mother who needed one. This is about empowerment: if you had a C-section and want to take action to support your baby’s microbiome, there are steps you can take.

A recent study in Pediatric Allergy & Immunology examined whether personalized gut microbiome support could help C-section infants develop healthier gut bacteria and reduce immune-related conditions.

Babies who received tailored recommendations and six months of coaching showed higher levels of beneficial Bifidobacterium, more genes for digesting breast milk, and a significantly lower rate of atopic dermatitis compared to the control group.

The takeaway: targeted support in the first months can shift outcomes.

“You suddenly developed asthma.”

I have frequently heard this in my career: a child is fine, and then suddenly they’re in and out of the ER, involving inhalers, steroids, and a diagnosis with no explanation. And the doctors say, “We don’t know why some people get asthma.”

I challenge that.

Almost all of my chronic “sudden asthma” patients have mold toxicity. I see many cases where we got the child out of the home, treated the mold, and suddenly, no more asthma medication needed, asymptomatic for over a year.

Don’t let them tell you there’s no answer. Comment MOLD below for the full episode link.

Eight years ago, Alexis joined us as an administrative assistant. Today, she is a certified health coach, a leader within our practice, and quite possibly the best team matchmaker we’ve ever met; she brought us Janelle AND Megan! 🎉

But titles aside, Alexis also:
✨ Takes your functional medicine plan and turns it into something that actually fits your real life.
✨ Meets you where you are (no judgment, no overwhelm) and helps you build confidence with small, sustainable changes.
✨ Holds the space between appointments, offering resources, encouragement, and practical strategies for nutrition, lifestyle, and wellness habits that actually stick.

Change can feel like a lot. But with Alexis in your corner, you are NEVER doing it alone. We pinch ourselves that she has been with us for eight years, and we are so grateful that you get to work with her, too!

What if there was a prescription that could actually help, but your doctor hasn’t mentioned it? 😤

Dr. Emily breaks down one of the most irrefutable and elegant research pathways in autism: folinic acid (Leucovorin). Unfortunately, most pediatricians, neurologists, and developmental docs still aren’t prescribing it, even though the research has been repeated, randomized, and controlled.

PANS/PANDAS can take over a child’s personality overnight, with tics, anxiety, and OCD seemingly coming out of nowhere.

But here’s what most families never hear: sometimes the infection isn’t in their throat. Strep loves to hide in the re**um, producing zero classic symptoms while quietly triggering neuroimmune chaos.

If your child is experiencing a flare and not showing improvement, it’s time to look where no one else is looking.

What if your child’s lab results aren’t showing the full picture? 🧠

For many children with autism, standard labs are rarely run, and when they are, they often miss the underlying imbalances that may be influencing mood, focus, and physical comfort.

The research is detailed:
✨ The gut-brain connection is real
✨ Nutrient deficiencies (vitamin D, omega-3s, iron, folate) are common
✨ GI issues can directly impact behavior and sleep
✨ One-size-fits-all diets don’t work because every child is unique

So how do you know what your child actually needs?
The answer isn’t guessing, it’s TESTING. Functional lab testing provides a personalized roadmap, revealing inflammation, gut imbalances, and nutrient deficiencies that standard checks miss.

So you’ve had an inspector out, they looked at the vents, smelled nothing, took an air sample, told you it’s moldier outside than inside, and you walked away thinking your home is safe.

Here’s the problem: that inspector was WRONG. Mold hides behind walls, under sinks, inside windows you forgot leaked two years ago, and in basements from floods you thought you cleaned up.

When I tell a family I think it’s their house, they’re usually shocked: their home is new, there’s no visible mold, and no smell. But the symptoms don’t lie.

If your child is struggling and you can’t find the WHY, don’t trust a quick walkthrough. Trust a partner who knows WHERE to look. Comment MOLD below, and I’ll send you the episode link to hear it all!
