Sugar elimination from diet

NAS63751
over 4 years ago

Hi all new to forum and first time posting, really just to see if anyone have experience or tips on this. My 6 year old son who has autism has terrible problems with very loose bowels and hives when eating certain foods. Dairy has been eliminated from his diet for past three years but after paediatrician appointment today we have been advised to eliminate all sugars from his diet for three weeks to see how that goes and slowly introduce sugars back in. 

Any help or guidance really appreciated.

    Sugar and dairy are hidden in lots of food - milk sugar - lactose - is hidden in lots of things because it is a cheap by-product from the dairy industry - it's even put in things like ham and as a bulking agent in lots of pills & capsules.  

    Is he generally well?   Have they discounted anything else?
