Guest guest Posted November 30, 2006 Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 Jenn, Thank you for the encouragement and for the interesting info regarding the fact that too much fruit and veggies can feed yeast. My boys have textural issues especially with meat and I am hard pressed to get them to eat meat in any form. Though, I can at times, sneak chicken into pureed pear sauce. I got to the appointment yesterday for the Developmental Pediatrician after rushing to get there because of an earlier commitment that day, and the receptionist told me the doctor had been called away due to a sick child and they would have to reschedule. They have had to reschedule us four times now due to the doctor being out of town and illness. This was the first time that I made it to the appointment before finding out it had to be rescheduled. So, cross your fingers, we may have an actual appointment tomorrow. The receptionist kept apologizing profusely and I told her I just want to get my boys into some therapy. Well, thanks for sharing how well your daughter is doing these days. That is encouraging news to hear esp about her talking more. Dana Garrett and Jim and Jen wrote: Dana, You will see fluctuations in the types of foods he wants due to yeast mutating to eat different foods. Before the diet, the typical american diet is potatoes etc. The yeast were eating the potatoes and now there are no potatoes for them to eat. So, they will try to survive on anything they can. ALL carbs can be yeast feeders as well as sugars of any kind. So, if one was to eat all fruits and veggies everyday, that still wouldn't be a healthy diet especially, if there was a yeast issue to deal with. You'll see the ups & downs as he progresses through the healing stages. It takes time and that's why we are going day by day. Maybe that's what has gotten us this far. There are those really difficult days sometimes but, keep in mind the desired end result. You won't be happy everyday but, overall you become healthier and stronger on this diet. Kali has in turn given me hope each time I see her do something new. I hope I offer you a bit of encouragement for tomarrow Dana. Jenn & K Can honey cause/feed yeast issues with some children? I really feel like my son, , has major yeast issues from his behaviors and cravings for only " sweets " I had him on the starter diet for a few days and he ate some but for the most part went on a hunger strike. As I have introduced foods back in, it seems he may have an issue with honey. Would that make sense? Should I just not feed him any honey at all right now? Can cinnamon cause any issues? I am trying to get at the root of his re emergence of autistic type stimmy issues that had for the most part cleared up.
