Guest guest Posted October 30, 2001 Report Share Posted October 30, 2001 Jasmine, We had a similiar experience with my son. We took him off gluten and he became allergic to corn. I was really struggling with the diet to begin with and then the corn allergy came up. His gluten peptide testing came back right at normal so we opted to put him back on wheat. It was a tought decision which I still question daily. We were not doing a rotation but had heard of it through Seroussi's Book. He can now eat corn products again with no loose bm's. What do you do? It's the worst of both worlds. Hope this helps. Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 30, 2001 Report Share Posted October 30, 2001 | I recently went to a GFCF seminar at my local autism | research center. They told me that if you have a | child with a leaky gut than they will become allergic | to anything they eat on a regular basis. I was | informed about a four day rotation diet. Example: If | my child has chicken nuggets today I can not offer | them again for 4 days or he will become allergic to | them. Is this accurate info? Is anyone else worried | about a 4 day rotation diet or do you just feed you | kid what they will eat? Jasmine My daughter's diet opened up, gradually, once she started getting digestive enzymes. I guess getting better digestion meant she felt better and could 'stomach' other foods. I never did a rotation, and she never did develop new allergies to her daily foods. I think the enzymes may have protected her. K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 2, 2001 Report Share Posted November 2, 2001 Have you started supplementing with zinc? Many of our kids are low in zinc. It aids with appetite among other things. My son started eating more and better variety when I introduced it. It should be taken outside of meals so that it can be absorbed properly.Hope this helps. in FL > We are starting the GFCF diet too.
