The evidence to support elimination diets or tests for food sensitivities simply doesn’t exist."<br />I am not trying to be argumentative with Tess by posting this, I just want to find out the truth, because I am pretty desperate and I will try an elimination diet but, I want to know that there is solid evidence behind it.Johnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102713423319258388.post-30617673517143360322012-04-22T22:53:00.624-04:002012-04-22T22:53:00.624-04:00Tess, this is great you are writing this book. I a...Tess, this is great you are writing this book. I am sick of these billion dollar pharmaceutical companies and their drugs getting all of the attention. I would love to read this book. The stat that interests me the most is the one on restriction diets, but I don't know where to start on a restriction diet. I couldn't imagine giving up wheat: bread, pasta, oatmeal; eggs; dairy: milk, ice cream, yogurt; and food preservatives: basically everything except vegetables. Is there a difference between how add/SCT people respond to certain diets and/or supplements compared to ADHDers? Or have they not done those studies.<br />Also, where did the link to you amazon store go?<br />One final question, do you have a section where you describe what supplements and alternative meds have worked for you and your ADD kids, and what haven't?Johnnoreply@blogger.com
