This diet is a huge undertaking for any family, let alone a family with a child who will have greater diffs than usual adopting to change and it isn't something that works for everyone. For what it's worth, we tried it for 6 months with my daughter who has aspergers and we saw no difference. In fact, she said it made her feel 'different' from her friends because she couldn't eat what others were eating at birthday parties, school etc. Think you made right choice for yourselves for now. Good Luck. dear lisa, posting no.5.

My 11 year old son is 50 inches tall and weighs only 52 pounds as it is! If I changed to a gluten free/dairy free diet he would fade away to nothing. He will only eat about 12 different things and most are dairy or pasta. He refuses to try anything new. I wish there was another option for us! Lisa and Christi…I have the same problem you both do!

He even suggested that we all follow the diet to make life easier for us. I purchased a cookbook and checked things out and came to the conclusion that it is not something we will be able to follow. His favorite foods are pizza, pasta, cheese, eggs and so on and I think the kid would starve to death if I took these away from him! I was told that he would eventually eat what was offered to him and that he wouldn't starve himself. But, it would not be worth the hell that he would certainly put us through to even attempt the diet. I guess if it were a life or death situation I would bite the bullet but I am not willing to live in misery at this point in time. It is too bad that it has to be an all or none situation and that we can't just modify "a little bit" here and there. To see results it has to be followed totally to a "T".

The casomorphines produced by gluten and A1 caseine are the real villains. An elimination diet works wonders to find other problematic foods such as grains (including corn), soy, eggs, spinach, citrus etc. You usually will not see a great deal of progress if you just remove gluten but retain dairy and other sensitive foods It is very important for people with Aspergers to avoid the caseine in A1 dairy products.

I am wondering if anyone has any ideas on how to get my son statemented as his school seem really reluctant or slowto do it. He has been diagnosed with ASD, mild ADHD,Dysraxia,meres irlem(type of dyslexia), Oppositional Behaviour Disorder, Global developmental delay. He was finished being diagnosed August 2008. His education is suffering and he is slipping further behind and I don't think he should be made to suffer. Any suggestions welcome. I live in Wales in England.
