[quote=Anonymous]After my child went gluten free for about 6 weeks (takes a while to complete leave the body), teachers thought I had medicated him because his behavior and attention were so much better. He also finally had language bursts. (We did it when he was a toddler). He did not have celiac, but he had an intolerance and gluten was making hims feel sick and in a fog whenever he consumed it. When you feel well you are more available to learn, regulate and be social.

Also, most sources of gluten are GMO and can withstand when things like roundup are sprayed to rid weeds around the crops. I read that there are often concerning levels of the chemicals in roundup found in things like wheat. Many people who struggle with gluten here don't struggle with it abroad.

I don't know how good the studies are regarding detecting round-up and other issues with gluten. All I know is it made a major difference for my son. I also know when I went off it my bloating and stomachaches stopped and I too lost the brain fog I had from Hashimotos.

My child still clearly has high functioning autism, but he is able to have friends, be mainstreamed and feel well. People are surprised to find out he had frequent tantrums as a toddler that often involved rolling on the floor, he was sensitive to every noise, couldn't handle change and was significantly language delayed. Not saying gluten-free was the answer to it all and a miracle, but yes, I am convinced it helped a lot.[/quote]
