Re: Diet and Disabilities (was Soy Milk)

[Guest guest]

Hello,

Just had to jump in here regarding the diet and dyspraxia and disabilities in

general. I have four kids with my six yr. old having oral dyspraxia/SI

issues/learning dys., etc.

I DID see a huge difference when we got rid of white flour, white sugar, and

processed food products. Now, I mill all of our flour (it's actually much

easier than it sounds)! I make all of our breads and other " goodies. " I

have seen a big difference in that my daughter can attend much better, her

speech has improved (I'm thinking her body was able to better process the

info coming in).

I would highly recommend trying a diet change and see if it helps. We do use

soy milk but also use " regular " milk (although it's organic..no hormones,

etc.)

I try to get fresh veggies and fruits in at every meal and don't bring any

junk food or pop into the house.

I haven't tried the true elimination diets as they were a bit too much for me

at this time. I would be interested in hearing from others that have.

There are many great sites out there teaching how to eat more wholesome

foods.

I like this one: <A HREF= " http://www.mountaintopsmilling.com/ " >Click here:

There are also a Whole foods digest and wholegrain baking group on the

groups lists. They have some great recipes which is what I needed to really

get going. It's not that I didn't want to eat healthier but I wasn't sure

where to start.

Hope this helps!
