Introduction: Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by difficulties in social interaction, communication, and repetitive patterns of behavior. Due to the growing interest in reports of food selectivity, sensory sensitivities and atypical eating behaviors in individuals with ASD, this study aimed to create an educational booklet on feeding for children with ASD. Methodology: This is an integrative literature review, with articles published in Portuguese and English in the last six years for the elaboration of an educational product, carried out in the VHL, LILACS and SCIELO databases. The descriptors and combinations used were "autism spectrum disorder and nutrition", "autism spectrum disorders and child nutrition" in Portuguese and English, respectively. Results: With the selection of 07 articles, based on their data, an educational product, of the booklet type, entitled "Nutritional care for professional nutritionists" was structured, containing 24 pages, divided into 6 parts. Discussion: The nutritional aspects involved include habits and difficulties in relation to the feeding of children with ASD, the presence of dysfunctional eating habits being observed, and strategies are established for the management of the difficulties present and the symptomatology of the disorder. Final considerations: The characteristics present in ASD have pertinent impacts on the diet and nutrition of autistic children, making it necessary to manage the evident difficulties and adopt strategies aimed at improving the symptoms and quality of life of these individuals.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is included among neurodevelopmental disorders and has increasingly gained attention in recent years. The growing number of diagnosed individuals, coupled with the increase in studies on ASD, leads us to emphasize and encourage the habit of early screening, benefiting such atypical patients and expanding the understanding of the family and support network. To identify the most commonly used screening tools for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), describing them in terms of their objectives, mode of application, target audience, age of application, and professional/person skilled in their application. This is a descriptive-analytical Systematic Literature Review (SLR), which uses selected articles from the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), PubMed, Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature (LILAC), APA PsycArticles, and Psychology Index journals, between 2019 and 2023, using the following keywords, their combinations in Portuguese and English: Autism; ASD; Autism Spectrum Disorder; Screening tools; Child; Screening. The Boolean terms used were "and" (AND) and "or" (OR). Results: Ten articles that met the eligibility criteria were selected and analyzed, with the following screening tools being identified: Classroom Observation Scale (COS); Questionnaire for Early Signs of Autism Spectrum Disorder (QR-TEA); The Infant-Toddler Checklist (ITC); First Year Inventory–Lite Version 3.1b (FYI-L); Social Communication Questionnaire (SCQ); Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers (M-CHAT); The Modified-Checklist for Autism in Toddlers, Revised, with Follow-Up (M-CHAT-R/F); Social Responsiveness Scale, Second Edition (SRS-2); Toddler Autism Symptom Inventory (TASI), Autistic Spectrum Disorder Behavior Scale (ASD-BS) and Behavioral Evaluation Protocol for Children Suspected of Autism Spectrum Disorder – Revised (PROTEA-R-NV), which were most cited in the reviewed studies. The results point to a diversity of screening tools for ASD between 2019 and 2023. However, there is no consensus on the best timing for screening, as the cited screening tools are targeted for different age ranges, application forms, and applicators, which can be parents/guardians, teachers, or professionals.
