Jenny McCarthy is giving out some real good information. She has said it's not a one fits all fix for all children. Autistic children respond differently and each child is different. The gluten/ casein free diet is a real tough thing to do, but in alot of cases it makes a world of difference. I saw a huge difference in my son within a week. It's been difficult but he has done well and his gut has been able to heal where he feels better. He has not been in as much pain in the abdominal area. She has given alot of different areas to pursue. There are alot of different issues regarding the immune health of these children. I commend her for putting out this information to every parent to consider. Alot of parents are in denile, meanwhile their children aren't getting the help they need. Early intervention is key to sucess with our special children.
