Gluten free diet can be expensive to follow.
Most Gluten free products are sold in specialty or health
stores.
These stores usually charge a much higher price. Some major
grocery stores are now carrying Gluten free products.
You can find Gluten free flour, pancake mix, waffles, cookies,
snacks, and many other foods. |
Most parents find out it is cheaper to make their own Gluten free
food. Recipes can be found on the internet, or in Gluten free cookbooks.
Some parents go together with another family following the Gluten
free diet and buy in bulk. Then they share the foods. This can help
lower the costs of the Gluten free items.
Often people following a Gluten
free diet will remove all dairy (Casein) products from their
diet as well.
You can find out if your Autistic child has an allergy to
a certain food by having allergy testing done. The doctor
can arrange for this testing.
You should know that gluten free diet is not a cure for
Autism. But it is used to help lesson the symptoms of Autism.

Dairy free diet to treat autism
If you are going to try the dairy free diet with your child you
will need to make sure they are getting enough calcium. This can
be done with vitamin supplements, or milk substitutes. Many types
of food are including calcium. If you choose to try a Casein (dairy)
free diet with your Autistic child remember to allow enough time
to see if the diet is helping. It can be helpful to keep a journal
while trying the diet. Keep a record of behaviors your Autistic
child has. Then you can see if the number of behaviors is dropping.
If you have not removed Gluten from your child's diet you may want
to consider this if your child is not improving from the dairy free
diet.
A Casein free diet might be helpful in treating your child's Autism.
It is not a cure for Autism though. It will only help treat some
of the symptoms.
