Well, I currently am doing a lot of organic foods and a bunch of supplements. I don't want to be dishing out supplements forever so I thought I would try either the GF/CG diet or CSD. Both make scientific scense. I
I feel organic foods are definitely helpful, but probably won't be the cure. My children are doing very well on the supplements, but I want to keep trying stuff and keep learning so that I don't have to have them rely on supplements the rest of their lives.
At this point, I trying to research which diet looks better.
By law, food monitored by the FDA must list if they have any allergens, ie wheat, dariy or soy. Usually a regular slab of meat won't have something added, but if your worried about it you can contact the company.
The meats you want to really check are the hot dogs, sausages, bacon, deli meats, etc...things that are flavored or ground up and made into something else.
As for what the animals are fed, that is definately something you might want to look into.l Chickens can be fed with feed that contains arsenic to keep the feed from developing bacteria and stuff. Tyson foods announced in 2005 that they do not feed their chickens with any animal feed that is lced with arsenic.
If you can try...buy organic. They usually don't contain peservatives such as nitrates.
does everyone here feed their kids organic food including organic milk?
I am just abt to read on the GFCF diet which to me seems sooooo difficult but I am going ot read it thru before making any decisio to or not to implement it.
In the interim however, should I go 100% organic with dd? Yogurt, milk, chicken, fruit??
Hi all. I am curious to know ground beef is casein free. Someone told me that they sometimes put milk as an additive in the meat. I am not able to find much info on this. We get our ground beef from a fresh meat market, so Im guessing nothing else is added to the meat but Im not sure. It does not give any ingredients on the package.. Any advice on this? Thanks!!
I am wondering something similar about meats. Does anybody know if the average slab of meat/poultry at the grocery store has anything added to it, which is not required to be listed on the label?
Also, are animals fed anything that could affect our kids? Someone once told me that cows are given foods high in glutamine, and it comes through in their meat. That could be an issue, since genetic research is revealing that many autistic kids lack the genetic programming to be able to regulate glutamine/glutamate activity properly in the brain.
Thanks for the info little byrd!
