MSNative Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 My aspie son has language delays. I've read that a GFCF diet could help him. I also read that some enzymes could help (Glutenease, Glutenflam, AFP something.) Dh would like us to try ds on enzymes before we go GFCF to see if it makes any difference. Has anyone ever used these? If so, could you tell me about them? Also, have you ever tried it instead of a GFCF diet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksoika Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 My aspie son has language delays. I've read that a GFCF diet could help him.

Has anyone ever used these? If so, could you tell me about them? Also, have you ever tried it instead of a GFCF diet? We follow a GFDF diet to alleviate gastrointestinal issues and every once in awhile we'll know that we've been exposed to gluten (usually when eating out). When that happens, we take glutenease and magnesium citrate. The first time we tried it, we were to excited about having no side effects from gluten that we commented to the pharmacist about how great it was. She reminded us that the enzymes help with the symptoms but that gluten can still be damaging the gut, so we just use them in emergencies. In my experience, eating a GFDF diet is easier than taking a supplement multiple times every day. Hope that helps! Kelli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSNative Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 I tend to agree with you that just going on the diet would be easier. The thought of it is overwhelming dh right now, though. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
