Guest guest Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 jo, I know it's so difficult to not see remarkable improvement since s diet is so extremely limited. Are you eating all free range, organic stuff? I am not sure it's really important, but it does help us (no risk of untolerable chemicals for my exceptionally sensitive dd who is seven). One thing I came upon with my journey is the need to vary the food we eat, so we don't become 'intolerant' to new foods. If you add a more advanced food what happens? Do you think there is any possibility you could add just a tiny smidge of a new food in the morning and then skip a few days before giving it to him again? I wonder if this might help broaden his ability to eat more variety (but I am no expert on your son, you are). I added a new food in a small amount and didn't eat any other new food until we had eaten it several times more over a couple of weeks. We were able to progress this way into more advanced foods over the course of time.Marilyn, is 10, autistic/seizures.

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 I will look over the list and see what advanced food I could try. The only fruit he has been able to tolerate is bananas and I really think he has yeast so I took it out. I know pears are ok for yeast. I just started him on 1/16th of dripped yogurt and it's not going too well. he is on no probiotic.
