THE Diet (GFCF)
Many researchers and groups supporting the GFCF Diet feel that the need for foods containing Gluten and Casein act
much like an opiate in the body of a person with autism. They become addicted to it, and therefore will go through a
period of withdrawal when the diet is changed.
While no information on this site is to be used in place of medical advice we at Arizona Autism Support strongly urge
you to Take it easy and start slowly, eliminating foods gradually to help ease them through this transition Begin by
changing the diet one meal at a time
Many people believe by eliminating the use of certain foods that contain glutens and/or caseins, helps children with
autism function more normally. Remember that not all children will respond to special diets and it should never be
considered a failure, just not an intervention for your child. It is worth trying to rule in or rule out.
These links will provide you with information on the GFCF Diet. There are also links to other types of dietary
interventions
