WOW I just got off the phone with a DAN Dr. that was talking about

that book. He has a chapter he wrote I think in that book he also

wront a book Feast without yeast by Bruce Semon. PLEASE COULD YOU

EMAIL ME and we can talk about this more. I have a son that is

allertic to yeast and we are trying to start the gfcf diet but this

dr. said it is Bioclemical and he believes in Anti Yeast theraphy. -

PLEASE email me with more info about this diet. Our son is allergic

to yeast. I just got off the phone with a DAN Dr. and he was so into

this Bioclemical Problem that is going on with these Autistic kids.

He talked about a anti yeast theraphy and also nystaytin or something

like that. I do need to hear more. He told me about two books one

is Biology treament by Shaw and the other is Feast without

yeast that HE actually wrote I do belive if it is done by Bruse

Semon. I will look forward to hearing from you. THANKS Cindy with

son Gavin age 3 that was just diagnosed with Autism. A STAY AT HOME

CARING MOM THAT WILL DO ANYTHING FOR HER SON!!!!
