Guest guest Posted October 15, 2001 Report Share Posted October 15, 2001 Mine is 11yo. He did very well with KidCalm (http://www.enzy.com/products/searchresults.asp ), but I now have him on B vitamins, extra B6, cod liver oil, magnesium, calcium, zinc, folic acid, vitamin E. I saw a huge change when we began the nutrients. As for the behavior: I think the withdrawals from casein and gluten is normal, pressures at school on top of the withdrawals is why it is probably so much worse at school? And this seems to go on a long time (I think I heard something like possibly six weeks?). I'd try the nutrients, or KidCalm (the GABA in it did a lot for my son). I've never tried making bagels. Bette Hagman has one in one in her Breads cookbook called quick bagels (not quick though) and here is one from gfcfrecipes: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/GFCFrecipes I made up the ANDI wunderbread mix (but am going to try our soft pretzel and pizza mixes tomorrow-you could use whatever favorite bread recipe you like). I opted not to add the yeast or vinegar and did not let it rise. Then I spooned the dough into greased doughnut forms. Baked in oven on 350 degrees for about 40 minutes and out popped beautiful, yummy, crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, bagels. You might try ordering some? Expensive. http://wwwc.catalog.com/cgibin/storemaker?id=208255321701767373812 & action=page & p\ age=frsetmain.html Lolita >I have a 6 year old son with Asperger's.
