My son is 4 and high-functioning autistic. I cannot get him to eat

the items on the Intro diet.....tell me what you are doing and how

your daughter is eating now, please! Bowen is eating SCD chicken

nuggets, peanut butter, peanuts from shell, grapes, raisins, Granny

apples,and a couple of the almond flour based cookies - he

hates new foods and refuses them

Does she have any bowel symptoms? Usually when she is symptom free -

so if she only has behavioural symptoms when they are gone.

> How long does this take?

It depends how severe the level of her bad gut bugs is, what she

eats, and if you take proactive measures (probiotics, meds,

fermented foods etc.)

>Do we need prescriptions

> or other remedies to aid in this?

If she just has the kind of gut bugs that can be starved out then

no. Since she seems to be improving well, it wouldn't seem that she

needs meds. Probiotics and/or yogurt, sauerkraut have good bacteria

that can speed things up by taking up space were the bad gut bugs

were. The good guys also provide healing, enzymes etc. that aid in

healing.
