A fussy schoolboy who couldn't stand vegetables and only ate beige foods has been cured in time for him to enjoy his Christmas dinner - thanks to hypnosis. Noah Young suffers from Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) and he once threw up just from eating a carrot.
The football-mad lad refuses to eat his fruit and vegetables and sticks to a diet of just beige junk foods. He has suffered from ARFID since he was 18 months old and has refused to eat food not in his select diet since.
Eating something new or different can make the youngster gag or even be sick in serious cases. Noah’s breakfast consist of toast with jam, pancakes or dry cheerio's without milk. Lunch is a ham sandwich or jam sandwich or plain pasta while tea is chips and chicken nuggets, pizza, or a plain chicken wrap.
