Gluten Free, Dairy Free Diet for Children

a wealth of information on the Internet, in magazines, on radio and television, whether or not gluten and dairy products play an important role in autistic behavior. Neurotransmitters and neuroreceptors in the stomach correspond with those in the brain - this information is coming people to believe that some kids will benefit from the diet. Current research looks at the influence of gluten and milk proteins in the digestive functions. Gluten is a protein in wheat, casein and whey proteins in milk.

Every child in the autism spectrum has a different chemical composition, and thus, certain foods and vitamins affect each child differently. One child may respond to diet and vitamins, although for others, it can increase aggressive behavior. While others see an increase, over time, it continuously decreases, while others may point to the plateau behavior in the fully reduced. Although some children do not benefit from this diet, the other children were significant changes in behavior and personality, and can even gain or lose weight.

Many children have digestive problems such as constipation and diarrhea. One of the signs of autism is a sign of rigidity - the routines, food, activities, and transitions. For children, having a rigid diet is one of those routines that they do not want to change. Many of them do not receive the necessary nutrients from different foods, so they do not receive benefits intended for the well-rounded diet. Some children will eat salty, crunchy food, while others will eat foods that are red and round. Are these problems related to brain development is a question that is being investigated.

Children with autism have a taste for objects and items that are not food, such as chemicals - glass cleaner, dusting spray, soap, lead paint, dirt, metal, etc. Something in their body is lacking or missing, or together, which is body tries to replace what was lost. This is similar to the craving something salty, if your body without salt, and then find yourself craving products such as spices or meat with a high salt content. Does the diet eliminate this craving?

Vitamin therapy involves a combination of vitamin B and magnesium as they produce better performance and attention, and reduce bad behavior. The dramatic improvement occurs after a child with no chemical additives and eliminate allergic foods from the diet. Some diet consisting of 50-75 percent raw foods (excluding fresh meat). No junk food, sugar or white flour products are offered, and only steam distilled water is given to drink. Choline, DMG, plus magnesium, calcium, vitamin B complex plus niacinamide, B3, B5 and vitamin C are important supplements to improve brain function and circulation in the brain. DMG is a carrier of oxygen to the brain, it is important for normal brain and nervous system function.

There are other types of cleansing and fasting diets and treatments to rid the body of chemicals, but as always, please check with your doctor before starting any diet program. Remember - your DNA is much different than your autistic son or daughter's DNA. What you can do for them, can work for you. Do not try your medications or supplements, the doses of their doctors prescribe for them. You are trying their drug therapy and the NOT indication of how well the diet will work for them.
