Re: GF/CF and what else? Plus GSE question

>>>> My son has AS and I read they typically don't respond as well to

diet changes. I'm wondering how many of you have had IgG testing and

based food eliminations on that or just decided to try one or more

foods.

I didn't do the testing because I was told it wasn't that accurate

and we may have to do the foods one by one anyway. So I just started

through the major foods but planned on trying enzymes initially

anyway. We found dairy was one food, but started the enzymes and all

the rest of the 'issues' faded away. So never got around to more food

removals as it was irrelevant then.

If you do the testing and get back a huge number of

foods...say...over 20 common foods (48, 72 including foods he has

never had), that is a dead giveaway that it may very well be a leaky

gut situation where there is poor digestion across the board instead

of any couple of foods truly being a problem. If only a few key foods

turn up, it is more likely to be those are true targeted food

intolerances. Enzymes can help in either situation. But it can be

really alarming to get test results back with an enormous number of

foods turning up as off limits forever.

Depending on how much yeast is there, and what food and supplements

you are giving, one drop per day with No-Fenol might be sufficient.

If he has no yeast, GSE can tend to cause a bad bacteria problem. You

might want to start by giving No-Fenol by itself, on an empty stomach,

and see what changes you might notice.
