On GFCF &

[Guest guest]

Here is a list of what the GFCFDiet has done for my son, if you are

interested.

Vivace,

's Mom

:

After casein free (has been casein-free over 6 months):

1) Makes eye contact appropriately.

2) Bowel trained within 3 weeks.

3) Less tactile and oral defensive.

4) Increased communication.

5) Increased appropriate social behavior.

6) Told me his tummy didn't hurt.

7) Little to no constipation and little to no leakage.

After gluten free (has been gluten-free about 2 months):

1) Engages in pretend play.

2) More increased communication (wouldn't surprise me if he gets

discharged from speech services by the time for his next case conference,

and I'm not kidding).

3) Continued increased appropriate social behavior.

4) Initiates conversation and play with other children and adults.

5) Less stimming.

6) Asks in-depth questions, including affect questions.

7) Increased spontaneous speech.
