Guest guest Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 Hello Jane, She is in GF/CF diet for about 9 months now. I didn't see it helps her sleep. Is your son in soy free diet or not ? I am just thinking whether soy can be an issue as well. thanks, Tetty > > Hi Tetty, > > Would you be able to post a little more info on the other treatments already in place.

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 Tetty, Aside from the fact that many of our kids have problems with soy, there may be problems inherent to soy for the entire population. Getting rid of the formula, particularly now that she's 2.5, might be a wise decision. The Weston A Price foundation has come out strongly against soy (at least at the enormous levels many people now consume it) and with good reason, IMO. You may want to check here as a starting point: http://www.westonaprice.org/soy/index.html Best, Anita > > Hi Natasa.

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 We get an easy 12 hours a night from , unclear if it's helping with his improvements but I would guess it must be. I did read an article on sleep some time ago which said adults who were deprived of 2 hours sleep per night for a month showed huge reductions in mental ability and I know if I am deprived of sleep for even one night I have what can only be described as brain fog.
