Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Food
attention deficit hyperactivity disorder food
Do you think a Gluten free (flour free) diet is healthier for kids?
It is now being reported that 1 in every 80 children worldwide has a diagnosis of Celiac disease and is allergic to wheat flour or any other type of flour found in breads, cereals, cakes, pasta, and in cookies, etc… Autistic children are now being placed on this diet as well, and are drastically recovering from their autism along with oxygen therapy. Do you think that celiac disease and Hyperactivity disorder and attention deficit disorder is the cause of flour or gluten filled foods? Thanks for your answers. If you are a parent, would you consider putting your children on a gluten free diet knowing the worldwide statistics of how many children suffer from epilepsy, chrones disease of the large intestine associated with gluten, and other serious disorders? Why or why not? Thanks for your answers.
I’m unable to say categorically that a gluten free diet is good for everyone, including kids, as it appears there are people who do not have any problems with it (though of course it may just be that we aren’t aware of them). It is very expensive, though, and extremely difficult to police - at school, gluten is in every lunch box, on every plate in the canteen, and in most of the sweets at the tuck shop. So unless you believe that your kids are suffering from some of the symptoms linked to gluten (which are many and varied), it probably isn’t worth doing.
On the other hand, you mention add/adhd - and there are people who say that a gluten free diet helps with this. Autism often responds to a gluten and casein free diet. If you child is suffering from any of these difficulties, it’s definitely worth trying one or other of these diets for a few weeks to see what happens.
Apart from celiac disease (where the tests are still not 100% accurate) there is no test for gluten intolerance. The only way to find out if there is an intolerance is to cut the food for at least 3 weeks to get it out of your system, then challenge by reintroducing it at all 3 meals on a single day to see what happens.
