Guest guest Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Donna, I agree. The diet is the most frustrating thing about . We recently did P/N testing because our son's diet is so restricted and my intuition tells me that it may not be necessary to eliminate all these things. My fella tested positive (highly allergic) for soy, egg, sweet potato and many other things that are allowed on the diet. But he is not allergic or sensitive to strawberries (and some other things) which is a big " No No " . It took us a year to make up our minds to venture off from Dr. G a bit and only time will tell if the P/N extracts will make a difference. BUT I definitely am frustrated with the diet especially when the dark circles remain, and we are not making the progress that we had hoped for.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Hi Donna, In over 7 years with Dr. G. I have never heard him RECOMMEND *soy*. I have had a very difficult time with my son and his diet, not because he sneaks stuff or is difficult to convince he can no longer have certain things, but because his IgE remains high, even though I have continued to eliminate things Dr. G suggests, and give things that I am doubtful that my son could tolerate. However at the end of the day, I have always trusted Dr. G and he has never steered me wrong. My sons IgE does continue to come down and even things I have avoided but Dr. G has said are okay (i.e. white bread) I am only now, after all these years, getting it through my head that he CAN have that and it will be less reactive then some of the GF alternatives that usually, often, contain tapioca, rice, corn and so on. While many of us have 1, 2 or even 3 kids as patients with Dr. G, he has treated hundreds, thousands of kids over the years and has a better overall awareness based on his clinical evaluations. Things have also changed or rather evolved over the years as Dr. G learns more and treats more and different kids. At one point Rice Dream was okay, now we are to avoid not only brown rice, but all rice as he has learned of kids being reactive to it. This is a learning process for all of us, including Dr. G. I have in the past resisted completely surrendering to Dr. G`s ideas of the diet as there have been some things that I just can`t fathom…white bread was one of them that I am now giving into - without reaction. The other is artificial sweeteners such as Splenda. While I won`t yet give on THAT one, I am starting to wonder if I had trusted a bit more in the beginning and taken the diet as Dr. G suggests without my own GFCF modifications perhaps my sons IgE would by now, be within a normal range and his body could finally heal, instead of always be inflamed just from what he eats. Compared to the early years when my son could not even tolerate an apple or grapes, he has come a very long way. The Dos and Donts Diet is not that hard compared to the hardcore GFCF diet that is now, I believe, considered ``old school``. Yet for those of us who have seen the difference in our kids behaviour and health just by removing a few offending foods, it is a really, really hard thing to surrender control of! We are just quite frankly afraid to see that side of our child(ren) return. Perhaps soy is okay for some of our kids. If Dr. G says it is okay for YOUR kid, there must be a reason he says that. I know for us, soy is not tolerated. Although eventually, I think the ideal goal is to have our kids be able to tolerate most things, in moderation or on occasion without flipping out or doing any inflammatory damage. Hope this helps Donna. I know this is frustrating. Truly the most difficult part of the protocol is to keep our kids immune systems inactive or homeostatic. Many of us know how much diet can affect our kids so clearly it is one the keys to their ongoing success. Best of luck to you. Lori BTW, what is it that you use soy for. I have realized that there is a completely different mindset with this diet and a ``MILK`` beverage or drink substitution is not necessary…Contrary to all the milk advertisements (paid for by the Dairy Boards) that tell our kids that they need so many glasses a day to be ``healthy``! We use a lot of Hellman`s REAL mayonnaise for sauces, dipping, even to make something ``creamy``. Perhaps that might work as a substitution…If it is for cereal, Goat milk is what is recommended. But then again, it is that whole moderation thing again!!! _____ From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of Dahlia Sent: April-09-10 10:17 AM Subject: Re: Was: Daiya cheese!

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Hi. It's not easy, but if you child is a kid, my opinion is to follow Dr. G. When my son was four, we starting this protocol and from testing, had allergies to wheat, cheese, peanut butter, citrus, and eggs. (All the things he loved.) My son is also not one of these kids who recovered quickly. At eleven, he is doing 500% better, but still has a way to go. His labs are much better and the last round of labwork was the best he has ever had the whole time with Dr. G. I really feel like his system is cooling off. It's hard, but try to keep in mind some of our kids just take more time and need more of our energy in order to catch up. (I was told when he was two by a neurologist that he probably would not talk or be able to understand what I say to him based on a BEAM test.) For years, he has been living off meat, vegetables, fruit limited, cereal, & chips, lots of water. Basically, he eats like a diabetic and has gotten used to it. For some of us, it takes a while. I hope this helps. Lynn > > > Can someone please explain to me why Dr. G has no problem with -- even > RECOMMENDS -- *soy*, but keeps cutting all kinds of other things from the > diet?

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Hi Lori, Dr. G recommended Soy Silk as a substitute for Rice Dream in cereal. HATED Soy Silk and could even taste it when I tried mixing it with the Rice Dream to gradually get him used to it. He also hates Vance's DairiFree. Dr. G also recommended soy yogurt as source of extra protein. 's IgE levels have always been in the *normal* range. Always. He does get those " allergic shiners " occasionally, but I feel those are due more to weather/pollen changes than food. Dr. G's main concern has been his rosy cheeks. Last office visit I managed to convince Dr. G that the rosy cheeks are more due to excitement, wind, heat, and activity, and not so much to food. When we first did the allergy blood tests seven years ago, showed a low-moderate sensitivity to soy. That's why I'm suspicious that I should take soy out but not be so concerned with some of the other things. Aaarrrgggh... Thanks for your insights, though!

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Diet I have fought with my wife, his teachers, my in laws, and Dr G for years over diet. The only totally conclusive comment I can make is when I finally stopped worrying about what made my kid happy and excluded all of the potential triggers, (We basically feed my son veggies (tons of them) fruit (a couple of portions a day), and just pushed the protein, along with Potatoes (chips, home made fries, mashed, ETC ...) And did what is never talked about on this list is get rid of all potential environmental allergens. Carpet, stuffed animals, unidentified cleaning products, Fragrant candles, Feather pillows, and just simply changed the filters on the AC bi-monthly I saw the lights come on and he is just flourishing. The logic that we need to balance our kids happiness and good health is not a viable compromise. What is not addressed is just common logic if you understand immune triggers. THEY ARE EVERYWHERE, environmental. well intentioned teachers and grand parents, other kids all meaning well! and just plain pollen. mango trees in bloom can trash a spring break! I know, just did that and went there. I look at it this way, if he is exposed once every ten days you are wasting your time. If for one year you just shut down all potential immune triggers, period, you may well give this kid a lifetime of opportunities. Once healthy it is easy to re-introduce what ever may be questionable and believe me you will see if you reintroduce an immune trigger! Connor is going to a gen ed school unassisted in fifth grade. He is a skin picker with tactile sensory issues among other things. Immune triggers cause him to get hive like reactions on his legs that he then picks at. When he gets off the bus and I see a mark or bloody sore that is new I ask him, what did you eat. He now gets it. He cheats but makes the connection and then the behaviors go away until he acts like a typical preteen and breaks the rules again. Don't suffer through what is right or maybe wrong. Healthy is much happier than a sick kid that wants a cookie or ice cream. In my house never, never mention donuts, Potato pancakes are good enough!

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Just curious, I try to keep my son away from any food group that is not part of my historic preferences, Not because of likes or dislikes but because they are more likely to create intolerances due to a lack of exposure.. Asian spices, specialty cakes and cereals (artichoke Flour as an example). Unusual fruits and snacks, or fad foods. I will read about hormones in soy tomorrow, either way I avoid it as I would a sup or substitution for dairy! Bill From: Kristy Nardini <knardini@roadrunne r .com> Subject: RE: Re: Was: Daiya cheese!

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 It's not all soy that is bad. It is the overprocessing of soy that is bad. If you just eat edamame beans and tofu and soy milk (from a reputable company), you're all good. All three of these things you can make in your own kitchen. But when they start turning soy *into* things (like cheese, tofurkey, etc) the processing process releases estrogen and they are finding that girls that have had excessive soy products are dealing with precocious puberty and boys' estrogen levels are high.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Kristy, For soy has never been a problem. We use Silk on cereal and non-dairy creamer for cooking things like eggs, muffins or even meatloaf. I guess each kid has different triggers.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 I don't exactly believe that highly processed wheat is okay, either so no, I don't. Sorry! I think keeping our food in as natural state as possible is always better than processing the heck out of it. If the ingredients list on a box is a paragraph, I don't particularly want to eat it. If I can't pronounce it, recognize it or it has a numbers in the name, it probably was never meant to be food. Now don't think I'm perfect, I can't afford to eat as pure as I'd like unless I become vegan - which isn't likely to happen but I do what I can, when I can which is all anyone can do.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 I agree that I can find no science behind the concept that white bread is less allergenic than wholewheat but I have seen it happen. Whole grains cause hives and behavior in my son while white bread does not. Regardless if your son is allergic to wheat he is allergic and it must be avoided. It sure is easier to be able to compromise slightly in a jam but you still need to avoid immune triggers and I am sure where the logic comes from, Not real good but better than not trying. > > > > From: Kristy Nardini <knardini@roadrunne r .com> > > > > Subject: RE: Re: Was: Daiya cheese!

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Here's my take on it, for what it's worth. My guess as to what's happening when someone with an intolerance to wheat can eat highly processed wheat is that it's likely because they aren't intolerant to everything in it but rather a singular minute component. Our food is made up of many things, proteins, enzymes, etc, it's not just " wheat " . In processing, something must be getting removed that someone can't tolerate, allowing them to eat it. You can be intolerant to a piece and not the whole and processing takes so much out of our food that many people can eat things they are typically allergic to because whatever that component is has been processed out. It becomes much less nutritional but edible. And then you are looking to do what Dr. G suggests, use bread as a vehicle for other nutrition, not rely on bread for nutrition.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Cheryl i agree. When Dr G told me peanut butter is OK but peanuts were not I research how they make peanut butter. Yes the only ingredient in natural peanut butter is peanuts but if you go to the history of peanut butter the machines they use remove the heart/seed that is the actual growing heart of a nut. The chemicals in the heart (they are generally very bitter) is very different than peanut hearts. Most allergy specialists will tell you peanuts and far worse than peanut butter. Go Figure! In reality processing can be a simple mechanical process that may well remove a sheath or heart of the wheat seed. I just have never been able to determine what that process changes about the chemical composition. It is not necessarily about preservatives or additives. Most likely it is about taste, hence peanut butter missing the bitter heart! (And a wide range of hormones and potential triggers that may well be behind the reaction) > > > > > > From: Kristy Nardini <knardini@roadrunne r .com> > > > > > > Subject: RE: Re: Was: Daiya cheese!

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Cheryl That is what gave me insight into this diet. The hearts of peanuts are very different than the nutrients that are in the halves. In wheat there are similar structures and a chaff. the outer skin. Whole wheat includes the chaff and probably a seed heart. If you think about the purpose of the seed the nutrients come from the bulk and support growth, one part. The heart carries the DNA and the hormones that start a new life. The chaff protects it from weather and predators.All are made up of different chemicals. hormones ETC.. . Early hunters and gathers would shake and toss the seeds before grinding to allow the wind to remove that part of the seed that was not palatable, still happens in non industrial cultures, the chaff. Whole Grain contains all of the parts and the marketing behind it may well be to increase the profits by reducing the steps. Not making it more healthy nor digestible and that may well be the problem. Again I just have not found any science about the immune reaction to what component of wheat is the problem. If you google Casein there are tons of studies about what varieties of Casein are a problem, (one published today) that support this diet. > > > > > > > > From: Kristy Nardini <knardini@roadrunne r .com> > > > > > > > > Subject: RE: Re: Was: Daiya cheese!

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 But doesn't non-dairy creamer have casein?
