Hi everyone, I'm looking for anyone that can relate to the following food sensitives. My young daughter has always had some sensitivities (gluten, dairy/casein, anything artificial, etc.) We have discovered even more sensitivities (salicylates, phenols, glutamates, grains, sulfur/ammonia, possible candida, nearly any "sugar" as in fruits, sweeteners) We have two exceptions to these rules. This leaves us with very few options. We are waiting for 23andme results and did a hair analysis with Dr. Amy Yasko and have begun slowly working on the protocol. She's had problems nearly since birth with this stuff.
Instead of Sisa screaming 80% or more of the day with behavioral problems and stomach pains, they seem to now be limited to every two hours almost on the dot and it's killing me. I'm now wondering if it's hunger in addition to inflammation/pain/constipation/diarheah.
What she *seems* to do well with:
spaghetti squash
butternut squash
peeled white potatoes
leeks
eggs
"clean" chicken (home raised or organic with no "water solution") fast cooked dark meat
organic elk and beef
ghee
lard
pink Himalayan sea salt
baking soda
chamomile tea
ginger root & ginger tea
panela (home made pure cane syrup)
homemade goat milk yogurt (somehow this works??)
Carlson's unflavored cod liver oil
GABA Balance and Valerian Root
She was eating celery, then I found it listed as the #4 highly sprayed pesticide food and for whatever reason she will not eat organic celery (and the neighbor's pigs who eat "everything" won't even eat the organic celery. ?? weird)
I don't think I'm forgetting anything. Fortunately she likes her food but can anyone relate to ALL of this? It is way too much. Unfortunately we are currently very much in poverty which limits any testing/supplementing I can do right now. This should, hopefully, turn around in the nearish future, something we are working on at least as I am sure additional lab tests and supplementation could help. I'd like to try some molybedenum and maybe digestive enzymes but, for example, the digestive enzymes often have papaya and I am worried as she can't eat papaya anymore.
If anyone can relate to all of this, any recommendations? With the addition of GABA and valerian root she finally has improved enough to where I can think a little bit and try to "journal" behaviors, which this week I am seeing the every two hour trend. It is so hard as I can barely even get myself out of bed in the mornings. She is really very well provided for, well stimulated, we live in the forest on a farm which is wonderful for her. But in the meantime I wish I had some ideas on the diet. To possibly need a small bit to eat every two hours is a hard one with so many limitations!
