GFCFKids
The principle aim of
this list is to
provide a discussion
forum for parents of
children on the autism
spectrum who are
avoiding gluten and
casein and other
substances in their
children's diets. We
hope that the
discussions will
include practical
information and tips
on following a GFCF
(etc) diet; scientific
research and opinion;
the latest
developments in
understanding GFCF
(etc) diet-related
health problems; your
personal stories and
experiences with
relation to GFCF (etc)
problems; information
on what food is GFCF
(etc) and what is not;
tips on how to eat out
of the house; recipes
and tips on how to
cook and prepare GFCF
(etc) food; what
vitamins, minerals,
herbs and other
supplements may be
appropriate for a
child with autism, how
to cope with difficult
diet demands, plus
support for parents.
Appropriate topics for
discussion on the list
include anything at
all related to diet
and autism spectrum
disorders -including
GFCF but also yeast,
nitrates/nitrites,
dyes, vitamins,
minerals, supplements,
dealing with teachers,
friends, schools,
outings, siblings,
testing, etc.
Membership necessary,
easy and free to join.
Membership now totals
more than 15,000
families who have
chosen Dietary
Intervention as a
therapy choice to help
improve their child's
life! Dietary
intervention may be
that one "piece
of the puzzle"
which will help with
your child's recovery
from ASD.

"DAN!"
Physician List
Since its
establishment in 1967,
the Autism Research
Institute has had as a
major priority the
tracking of promising
treatments for autism.
We do not subscribe to
conventional
medicine's strategy of
simply trying
"the drug of the
month." Autism is
not caused by a
deficiency of Ritalin
or Haldol. Intensive
study of the
scientific literature,
and analysis of case
reports from thousands
of parents of autistic
children convinced us
that there is much
that can be done NOW
to help many of these
children.

Support Group for any
parents implementing
the GFCFdiet in the UK

is unmoderated and
unrestricted. It is
principally to provide
a discussion forum for
parents of children on
the autistic spectrum
who are avoiding
gluten and casein in
their diet. It is
hoped that it will
also provide
information and
support to anyone who
is following a GFCF

or with their
children. All related
topics are welcome.
ExploreENumbers -
United Kingdom product
labeling
This UK website was founded to
offer a unique
reference point on "E"
number basics, dangers
and advice. Information
covered includes all
that you need to know
about E Numbers and
their safety. From
what E Numbers to
avoid to those that
are safer, this site
tells all.
Publication of this
website was due to the
concern that there was
no single UK resource
for interesting
features and practical
advice on this
subject.
The
features and articles
are written by
professional
journalists and
experts - who have a
particular interest,
or a background in
this area.

Magazine
Living
Without
Magazine
www.livingwithout.com
Magazine's
primary aim is to
support and educate
readers with allergies
and food and/or
chemical
sensitivities. This is
the magazine you turn
to after your
diagnosis - after the
doctor sends you home
with a couple of
pamphlets and a pat on
the back.
It's no mystery that
people with special
diet and lifestyle
restrictions,
particularly those who
suffer from severe
allergies and
intolerances, often
feel unsupported and
misrepresented. Many
are embarrassed to ask
for special
consideration. We
understand about all
that. We know that
asking the waiter
about ingredients on
the menu is not
whining - it's
survival.
Living Without
wants you to know that
a life with allergies,
intolerances and
sensitivities can be a
vibrant, healthy and
happy life. We want
you to use this
magazine to open the
door to living
abundantly with your
special needs.
This magazine isn't
about minimizing the
challenges of living
with allergies and
intolerances... it's
about presenting the
important truth of how
good life can be,
living
without. - Publisher:
