Gluten-free, casein-free diet

This is very encouraging to hear and adds a good arguement to what seems to be a bit of a contentious area.  Our Pediatrician dismissed our suggestions to go Gluten Free/Casein Free.  (she is close to retirement I think and perhaps is a little turned off to these sorts of ideas).  However, because our boy (3yrs) seemed to be putting on a bit of weight I thought we should reduce the amount of milk he consumed throughout the day.  In the end We managed this no problem (moved to natural juices), and who can say if this was the reason his behaviour has dramatically improved over the last 12 months. Maybe it was his interventions/therapies or maybe just maturity, but we no longer have the meltdowns or uncontrollable behaviour we had when he was 3.  Things are going ok for the moment, but in the future I will be careful to look at his diet if we need to work on any behaviour issues.  Good luck with your new way of eating. Maybe you should publish your recipes.
