Guest guest Posted November 14, 2000 Report Share Posted November 14, 2000 Dear Kathy H.- You mentioned in your latest post that you are seeing a nutritionist. Can you tell me who the nutritionist is, their location and phone number? We are also GFCF but I am very concerned about my son's picky eating habits! Thanks so much! ne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 14, 2000 Report Share Posted November 14, 2000 Hi JoAnne. We are heading towards doing GFCF plus Feingold. When I did an elimination diet with my son (age 5), he seemed to react to a number of foods including the ones high in Salicylates and phenols. We are trying to eliminate almost all colors from his diet (not easy around Halloween!). I borrowed a Feingold cookbook from the library and their recommendations seemed to correspond with his sensitivities. I keep feeling guilty about eliminating so much, but is a picky eater; he doesn't care! We are seeing a nutritionist. She also recommended avoiding some of the foods listed as bad on the ketogenic diet, saying that ASD kids and kids with seizures seem to have a lot in common biochemically. I need to get a Feingold book! -Kathy H. --- JoAnne LaGreca jblag@...> wrote: > Is anyone doing gfcf plus Feingold?
