[quote=Anonymous]It's OK, but think OP is slightly confused. You can definitely have sensitivities to gluten and casein, but the problem with sugar likely relates more to the child's yeast dysbiosis. Sugars feed yeast and the yeast in turn produce lots of nasty toxins that get into the blood stream in ASD kids who have leaky gut. The ped is correct that rapid die off of yeast from using an anti-fungal can cause a lot of behaviors initially. I wonder if the ped had discussed using probiotics first, which would help to repopulate the gut with good intestinal floral and keep the bad flora in check. Anyway, GFCF diets have gotten so much easier with a wide array of really tasty alternatives. Whole Foods and Roots Markets have some excellent products and local dev ped, Pamela Compart, MD, has written a really nice GFCF cookbook.[/quote]
