I am new to this so I will start out by saying that I apologize if I make any mistakes as far as where I post and such. I do want to comment on the article.
I have been doing the GFCF diet for my daughter since she was 3 and she is now 5, almost 6. If we stray from the diet, espcially with wheat, she clouds over and is in what I refer to as, "la la land."
Over the few years of the diet I wondered why sometimes she would seem to slip back into la la land after I thought I was being so careful. So after I read that the AAP suggested that if you child is allergic to dairy that they are also allergic to soy, I cut out soy completely. I had always stayed away from soy because I thought that maybe it has a negative effect on her. But as of two weeks ago I got serious about it. I stopped using the gfcf waffles that had soy in them, I stopped using margerine and found some soy-free vegetable shortening to use instead of margerine since this was the only thing I could find to spread on her gfcfsf toast that had no soy in it. After being very strict about keeping soy out of her diet, we have had 2 weeks of clarity. This is the longest stretch ever and I am hoping that we have found the key. I have hoped that a few times before, like when we started the methyl b12 shots and she did so well, but then would still occasionally cloud over again.
So, we will see. But I think that the GFCF diet is not complete without also, very strictly, removing soy completely.

The student that I work with consumes a large quanity of carbs and calories at lunch. Juice bags, chicken sandwich from cafe, corndogs,uncrustables and chocolate pretty much everyday. Seldom if ever fresh fruit or non-processed food. After lunch time usually overwelled with tired, laxidazical behavior. Connections?
