Re: OT: Clarification on New Enzymes

[Guest guest]

We normally don't reply to most of the posts about Kirkman's products

on this board but since this post (copy below) clearly does not

reflect our position I thought I would post the answer (same post

that we made in response on another board). We don't want to go back

and forth so this is the last post we will make on this thread.

We have seen remarkable recovery with GFCF diet and encourage its use

and recommend that parents keep their child on the diet if it is

working for them. It is the first line of treatment for parents that

are new to biomedical treatments.

Enzymes can help with digesting all types of foods and many children

with autism have problems wiht digestion that include soy, casein,

gluten, sugars, fats and carbo's. The newest product EnzymeComplete

with DPPIV is meant to digest all types of foods and IF a parent is

adding casein and gluten foods it will digest normal levels of those

as well. It is stronger and more complete than any competing enzyme

and also has higher DPPIV levels.

The following is a copy of our post we sent to anther board to

correct the record followed by the post to this group.

*********************************************

, EnzymeComplete with DPPIV can be used on a regular basis for

those that eating normal amounts of casein and gluten, just like the

Houston enzymes.

What we are saying is that we are not encouraging a parent that has

an autistic child and is on a successful gfcf diet to substitute

enzymes for the diet. That same parent however can make the decision

if it is best for their child to eat casein and gluten foods with or

without enzymes.

There are medical concerns for children with autism that stop us from

encouraging parents to break the diet. We have discussed this

privately with you.

You certainly have the right to have a different opinion. All people

benefit from having both sides discussed.

Thanks
