Guest guest Posted March 10, 2003 Report Share Posted March 10, 2003 Can you tell me more about gaspretin and the CS diet? Never heard of them. My son always has loose stools, too, even GFCF.

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2003 Report Share Posted March 10, 2003 Hi, Gaspretin is the porcine version of secretin. We obtained it from www.pharmaworld.com with a doctor's prescription. One of our DAN doctor's wrote for it. I don't think the Gaspretin brand is available now, but Secrapan is, and that is also porcine secretin. After 1 IV dose of gaspretin my son's stools became normal. I attribute sustaining this response to the Specific Carbohydrate Diet. It takes GFCF one step further. It is scientifically sound. No grains are allowed. Only meat, eggs, certain cheeses (those with no lactose), vegetables, fruit, nuts and nut flours. You can read all about it in Elaine Gottschal's book " Breaking the Vicsious Cycle " . There are a couple devoted to the subject, one is called " ElainesChildren " . I have found it very helpful. let me know if you have any other questions. Beth > Can you tell me more about gaspretin and the CS diet?
