another basic question about the intro diet

[Guest guest]

I'm considering starting the SCD with my ASD son, but I'm very

concerned that he will not eat anything while on the intro diet.

All the intro diet foods are things that he doesn't currently eat.

Has anyone's child gone on a hunger strike during the intro and how

did you handle it? Do you just keep offering foods and see that he

drinks plenty of fluids? Did your child begin to try new things?

Luke has such a limited diet right now - limited to GFCF allowable

junk food (chips, fries, ketchup, sugar)- that I think he will be

pretty difficult during the intro. I'm not going to let that scare

me off because I know I can handle it, but I'm worried about him and

would like advice from someone who has gone through this.

Thanks,
