GFCF survey - New update under way.

[Guest guest]

Thank you everybody who have helped us by sharing your experience through the

survey. We got a large number of responses in September, and I'm presently

working on the next update. Roughly half the mathematics and statistical work

is now done.

* The corellation between improvement and time on diet remains strong. The

longer the patient stays on the diet, the more improvement.

* There is a strong corellation between early intervention (compared with the

patient's age) and quick intervention (after the first appearance of symptoms).

Both these factors have a strong corellation to improvement rates. We will need

more data before we can confidently separate the relative importance of the two

factors. (Because the question about quick intervention was added to the survey

at a late stage, we've only got 43 respondents who have sent us follow-up

reports, and who have also answered the new question).

* We still can't see any clear connection between improvement rates and any of

the other dietary interventions that we're asking about: Yeast / Corn / Egg

elimination.

Yours sincerely

Jørgen Klaveness
