Has anyone tried it?

Tried putting our whole family on it while we were working with our then 5 year old son. Tried it for about two months, and with him, we did not see any change in behavior. We did have him take enzymes, though, and that seemed to help. He took enzymes for about three years.

The diet is difficult to keep up, but for those who feel that it works, it is worth it.

Haven't tried it.

I tried it and I liked it. I don't think it did anything for my AS, but I lost weight and learned some interesting recipes. My cooking was still terrible, but at least I had an excuse while I was gluten free. It was pretty hard for my family, so we stopped. They weren't following the diet very closely, mainly just supporting my efforts. I think when I move out, I'll try it again. One problem was milk. I love to drink milk and soymilk makes me gag. Even after like four months of no real milk, I still couldn't drink it. I ate a lot of candy on that diet, hard candy is gfcf, but I eat candy anyway. I think I lost weight because I wasn't eating since the food was more expensive and I didn't want to burden my parents more than I already did. I think it is worth a try, it does help some people. You have to be on it for a while before you can expect much of a difference, though. Good luck!
