[quote=Anonymous]I am reluctant to post this for fear of reprisal, but have you considered food sensitivities? I am reading Healing the New Childhood Epidemics and it really resonates with me. I have quite a few foods that I have to avoid in order to function properly; emotionally, physically and mentally. To some it sounds like quackery I'm sure, but my suffering was very real and not one of the gazillion doctors I went to could figure it out. Certain foods (anything with MSG or sulfites) cause a cognitive impairment leaving me barely able to carry on a conversation. I am digging deeper into the issue now for my epileptic child. I have made some food/seizure links (i.e. if DC eats X a seizure will likely happen within X hours). Another interesting book may be Excitotoxins: The Taste that Kills, I have not read that one. Google scholar has some interesting things relating glutamates in the food supply and damage to brain cells. If not for my personal experience this concept would be more difficult for me to grasp. OP, I wish you the best of luck finding some answers.[/quote]
