You know, I had a "wild hare" kind of thought in the car this morning on my way to school about your situation. Have you had your thyroid tested? I wonder if...
Susan, So much to say here, so little time. first of all your 6 meals a day and lack of weigh is classic yeast. You are not digesting what you are eating....
I've had my thyroid checked pretty thoroughly. No abnormalities that I know of, but you have to wonder. I saw my son's nutritionist today. She said I look...
Hello there! My son needs to be on a 5-day rotation diet and he cannot eat amaranth. Do you think I could use Teff and what other grain(s) would be sort of...
Wende, I would add in to my rotation a grain free day instead of teff or another alternative grain. Just my opinion. Colleen ;) ... From: Wende Bartolomeo To:...
Colleen, I just really worry about that because he would need to have 2 days of no grains. I worry about his energy level (when he doesn't have grains he is...
I'm pretty sure that teff is OK- I forget who said that they had discussed it with Donna and she agreed- she doesn't suggest it because it can be hard to get....
Teff is a high starch grain as well as buckwheat, and amaranth- they cause problems with my son's yeast issue - I assumed it was because of the starch. Check...
Wende, My son doesn't eat any grains at all really - only occassionally a soaked nut or sometimes I allow Quinoa every 7 days or so. He just doesn't do well...
YEAH! I am so excited that I can use teff too (on a rotation basis). If you could think of one other possibility, that would be AWESOME. I hate to deprive...
Colleen, I would love your advice on how to get more veggies into my son. I try every day, several times a day and all he would eat were zucchini. Now he...
Colleen, Does your son natually like a variety of vegetables, or do you have a secret method you can share? Mine will go 3/4 of a day without food before he...
Does anyone out there live in the Boise, Idaho area? Just curious. We may have to move there or to Rochester, NY (from Phoenix, AZ) at the end of the year. ...
Hi everyone, I am thinking of starting this diet with my ASD 5 year old son. I would love to hear from other parents with ASD kids. Could you tell me what kind...
Wende, I do all those things as well with the hamburger, turkey, veal, meatloaf etc. I also puree zucchini or yellow squash and add them to pancakes made from...
Susan, I posted to Wende about some ideas. I would suggest thinking outside of the box and asking yourself everytime you make something - how can I add a...
Colleen, My son likes spicey sausage, that would be the best place to hide them I think. Can you share your recipe for sausage? A good vegetable dip would...
We live in Idaho, but are on the east side of the state. We call Boise area the “banana belt” because it’s so much warmer than where we live, and they...
I am just starting to try and use some grains. I have 12yo boys. One is a scrawny ASD kid who has improved tremendously on GFCFetc->SCD->now seriously...
do you cook veggies or do you give raw? my 2.10 yr old loves it when i give cooked veggies with meat or soaked grain. the condition is this... the veggies have...
I got the same feeling about this - if he craves it that much, I would suspect it's the yeast asking for it. When my son wants something that badly, I know...
Could you explain why you have moved from SCD to BED? I'm trying to stick mostly with SCD but adding some components of BED (as I believe we are dealing with...
Well, I think that I am watching both diets and trying to incorporate as much as possible from both (like I think that my scrawny guy can tolerate goat...
Hi Lynette, yes, I did the same. as I did the SCD for over one year with good success, but autism stayed and in Germany -after having done live blood analysis-...
Salt is one way of perserving the veggies. It is not used in BED because it inhibits enzymes and stalls the natural growth of microorganisms. Better to ...
I have not yet discussed this diet with my colon hydrotherapist, but the last time she did a probiotic infusion on my son, she said that taking probiotics...
