Solving Autism Symptoms Through Proper Dieting Tactics
If you or someone you know has an autistic child, you are already familiar with the lack of treatment options currently available. There are some means of relieving the symptoms, but not all treatments show help for 100% of children. One method to try is to cut out gluten and casein from the child's diet to see if it helps.
Gluten is a protein that is found in many grains. As you can probably deduce, it would be extremely difficult to cut out every source of grain in one's diet. This reason accounts for the fact that there haven't been as many studies on the subject of cutting out casein and gluten from one's diet. If you can find a trusted health food store you will be at better odds in making the diet work.
Avoiding dairy products is a bit easier. Casein is a protein that is found in dairy products and is derived from milk. Non-dairy items can be created that still act and taste like the real thing, and most grocery stores will stock such items. You can still eat cheese, drink milk, and enjoy chocolate and other confections despite cutting out casein from a diet.
So why would we want to cut out both proteins from a diet of an autistic child? The theory currently being proposed is that both proteins act as an allergen to autistic children- even when they don't show any signs of the common allergic reaction to a food or protein. Unfortunately there hasn't been enough studies on the subject, and the exact conclusion of how much a diet would help, or if it helps at all, is obscure.
The results of the hard work in setting up a proper diet have been promising for some parents. Parents who say there has been an increase in results claim their child is more responsive socially or seems to be more attention-oriented. While it may not be a cure in itself, the diet has made the life of some parents much easier as a result of implementing the plan over the course of weeks to several months.
It's only a matter of time before the link between symptom relief methods and autism are discovered and studied. Once we can study the condition, we will have a better chance at formulating a cure that can one day bring an end to the autism predicament that so many face. In the mean time, you can make use of subtle improvements such as dietary modification.
In Conclusion
You should consult a real physician or dietary official before implementing your own routine. You can easily conduct the wrong diet and accidentally cause harm to your child if you aren't careful. A medical professional will be able to better device a diet that is safe and beneficial. - 17269
