Single mom with two boys with autism/down syndrome.

I have two boys Jonathan 20 and Jezeriah 5.  They both are on the SCD diet and also follow the low osolate diet to further support digestion.  Jonathan started on the GFCF diet at 12 and over the past 5 years I added more changes to the diet and noticed an incredalbe change in Jonathan.  Jezeriah has never had wheat and most grains.  he has never had milk either.  The support of this diet is incredably life changing!  I also use baking soda baths and sea salt baths to further support detoxing the body.  In our home we take our shoes off before entering our home.  I use no toxic cleaners of sprays/substances to freshen air!  I believe kids with autism have  a very hard time getting toxins out.  So I do my best to limit toxins!  We have no carpets in our home.  I try hard to get the kids in the sun at leat 2 hours per day.  When there is no sun vitamin D suppliments are given.  I use B12, B6 and zinc suppliments daily along with chloraphyll, alovera and quinton which are mineral suppliment. I believe autism can be cured and we as parents must work hard to heal the gut and see that the environment is as toxic free as possible.

My boys are very aware and doing extremely well in life!  Jonathan can read and write very well.  He can swim over 1 mile in a lake, hike 15 kilometers and njoys kayaking canoeing and sailing!  Jonathan is also a gifted artist.  Jezeriah is learning to speak more and more.  He is learning to swim and is much more able to be calm in new situations.  Jezeriah loves to laugh, dancve and walk to the park.  He has come such a LONG way in 5 years!  Both boys are continually improving daily!
