[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 9 yo was diagnosed with apraxia/dyspraxia at age 3. Based on behavior and tantrums, I was positive that he wold eventually be diagnosed with ADHD. In the interim, we tried the Feingold diet and it made a huge difference. By age 5, he was an entirely different kid. His apraxia/dyspraxia was considered resolved at 7. He has no ADHD. [/quote]

OP here. I never heard of this diet. I am going to research it! I cant imagine my DS's dyspraxia being resolved because despite therapies, with age its feeling worse. Would love for it to resolve though!![/quote]

I’m the PP. To clarify, diet had no impact on apraxia/dyspraxia. That was years of intensive therapy.  Between ST and OT he had as many as 5 sessions a week. Plus, I worked really hard with him at home to replicate therapy sessions. The diet only helped with behavior and emotional dysregulation. [/quote]

Thanks for clarifying. I need all the help I can get with the behavior![/quote]
