Guest guest Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 It's an absolutely fabulous article, which I highly recommend. It's so nice to see environmental issues and research mentioned for a change. I was so pleased to see the likes of Dr. Martha Herbert and Dr. Pardo-Villamizar quoted, rather than the usual knuckleheads that are so often quoted. I made copies and distributed it everywhere I could think of. > Has anyone seen this month's Discover Magazine (April).

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 Dear , Even though I have not read this article, I have been on the enzymes in autism yahoo list for many years. There is a definite link between the gut (considered the body’s second brain) and the brain. Clean up the gut with digestive enzymes and probiotics, then possibly you can reduce a lot of behaviors associated with disorders and auto immune problems. My daughter has been on digestive enzymes for many years. We were able to clear up many of her tantrums and SIB by eliminating gut issues associated with foods like casein in milk and wheat. Now, as a teenager, she can eat foods that she could not tolerate when she is younger.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 I agree. Allie became verbal within a week of eliminating dairy, within 2 mos she had over 100 words. She is now eating these foods, has taken digestive enzymes, and I hope to get them back in her as soon as we get her pill-able. I'm afraid if we try to mix in water she'll stop drinking, she won't drink juice & she won't eat soft foods except very, very limited basis.
