[Sir Francis Dashwood]

I am taking care of a 3 year old boy right now, who was showing all the signs of autism, until he started seeing a doctor who treats food sensitivities and things like you mention, the heavy metals and other things left in the body after immunizations.

We have just found out that he is sensitive to his 3 favorite foods: milk, wheat, and soy. He also lacks the enzyme that helps detoxify the body.

Since starting a milk/wheat/soy free diet a month ago, he is showing MARKED improvement in all symptoms.....and there is still a long way to go with other treatments and vitamin/mineral therapies.

This disorder is generally accepted as a biological syndrome that affects both the gastrointestinal and central nervous systems.

Could you provide contact information about this physician or a body of research materials on this topic related to this work?

You need to get the DAN protocol (Defeat Autism Now) from Dr. Bernard Rimland at the Autism Research Institute.

Do a web search on Bernard Rimland. He has been treating autism as a biological disorder for thirty years and the DAN protocol worked wonders with my son.

When we went on the wheat-free, dairy-free diet the changes in my son were dramatic. But it doesn't work for everyone.
