Diet

I am fairly sure Lucy’s brain was starving for 4 of her 6 years.  Her first year and half she was breastfed and didnt seem uncomfortable and was FAT (shes been skinny ever since).  She wasn’t absorbing her food (it came out just like it went in…in big loose stools) and she was having violent fits.  We first figured out she was reacting to glutamate….because her Dad was sensitive to it.  It was a snowball effect after we saw how much difference it made when she didn’t have high glutamate foods.

She currently is limited in her food intake.  She eats ALOT but only: fresh green beans, rice, apples, oranges, and coconut

She is intolerant to protein, salicylic acid, gluten, glutamate,  & cysteine

She takes enzymatica digestive enzymes to aid her in digestion - if not, her food goes in one end and out the other…without much nutrient absorbtion.

Because I believe her conditions are a result of toxicity (mercury &/or Vitamin A)…I also beleive that the toxins are still in her body and we are fighting an uphill battle until they are gone.  I have seen what a huge impact dietary changes have had on her, I know there has to be other ways to help her.  Until a year ago when we changed her diet…we were at a loss and didn’t know if she’d ever be “OK” We now know that we have to keep looking and keep trying.
