Is the flour bleached white? Bleached flour contains aluminium.

I'm afraid that's what is happening with my son. Chelation is the only thing

I must have missed your first post, but why exactly are you giving

the PB 8?

Is it to help with a yeast problem?

If so, it is going to be virtually impossible to get rid of yeast as

long as you continue to allow sugar in his diet.

I wasn't exactly sure he had a yeast problem...but I gave him the

probiotic just to see if it would help. And it does seem to help

him with any kind of reaction to gluten.

However, he doesn't have any other symptoms other than a rash on his

upper back that comes and goes, depending upon what he has eaten.

Of course, that is the part I was trying to " tune " , in addition to

increasing his NoFenol dose.

I am not clear on how to eliminate a yeast problem (and I'm thinking

I should be reading The Yeast Connection). If he truly has a long-

term problem, does he need to avoid sugar and flour forever? The

enzymes have helped, PB8 has helped, and I am trying to determine

what else might be going on. We've not had any testing done that

would confirm any specific problem; in fact, doctors have been no

help at all.

He has Asperger's and some significant sensory problems, which come

and go as the reactions take place.

Any advice on avoiding sugar, and for how long, would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Unfortunately, to really get rid of yeast and keep it away, you need to be

off sugar and simple carbs. That being said, it will not happen with my

Asperger's son. So, I give anti-yeast tx. (OoO) and probiotics.

It still helps although I know it would be best to get rid of sugars.

Hope you are more successful than I.

For food issues, yes.

Some kids need to avoid carbs also, that is the premise behind SCD

For my son, chelating metals removed all his yeast issue.
