Gluten Free Diet
GF/CF Diet after about 10 months
I’ve been on the GF/CF diet for about 10 months now. I’ve had a comment asking I’m how I’m doing now so here’s a short answer:
I’m still on the GF diet. It’s getting more difficult to stay on because of the extra cost and with all the rising fuel and food prices. In the supermarket [...]
GF/CF diet (for Aspergers) – June, 2008
This post explains how my GF/CF diet is going and any progress I am making after about 7 months on the diet.
After about 6 months on the diet I did experience a second rush of improvements but it was disappointing. It mainly took the form of more regular bowel function and by becoming more focussed [...]
GF/CF diet (for Aspergers) – balance sheet of progress so far January 14, 2008
After about two and a half months on my GF/CF diet I feel like weighing up my progress.
The tedium of the Christmas and New Year festivities was more bearable this year. I normally get terribly depressed at this time of year due to assessing my life, and usually coming to the conclusion of another “wasted [...]
GF/CF Diet Diary (for Asperger Syndrome) December 21, 2007
This is continuing my Gluten Free diet diary post. I’m about 2 months into the diet.
Three weeks ago I stopped drinking milk and other Casein containing foods. So now my diet is Gluten Free/Casein Free, (GF/CF).
I’d put off eliminating Casein as it only takes 3 weeks to get rid of the withdrawal symptoms and it [...]
ASDs are caused by genetically inherited gut malfunctions
It is routinely put forward that the causes of Autism aren’t known for certain. But I think all the evidence so far shows that Asperger Syndrome and Autism are caused by genetically inherited abnormalities in the functioning of the gut. People just seem to be uncomfortable with the idea that ASDs are genetic in origin.
I was moved to [...]

This is my Gluten Free diet diary post. Not a great deal is happening as I’m into the waiting phase.
There isn’t a great deal I can report about my Gluten Free diet as I’ve had the initial improvements (see earlier posts) that you get after 3-4 weeks on the diet, and I’m now got to [...]
Gluten Free Diet Diary (for Asperger Syndrome), November 14, 2007
This is a record of how my Gluten Free diet is going.
At the end of my last post I related how I’d resolved to be more determined than ever to stick to my GF Diet and get gluten out of my body. At this stage I was still eating 2 slices of bread a day [...]
GF Diet Diary (for Asperger Syndrome), November 7, 2007
This is a record of how my Gluten Free diet is going. In this post I relate how after initial dramatic improvements nothing seemed to happen and I start to wonder if I was deluding myself.
My last post described how my GF diet had evaporated depression and anxiety. At this stage in my gradual introduction [...]

This is a record of how my Gluten Free diet is going. In this post I relate how this diet has cured me of depression and anxiety.
At the end of September, 2007, I was still eating 4 slices of bread a say but now I cut out biscuits. I noticed the following improvements:

Gluten Free Diet (for Asperger Syndrome) – Introduction
A Gluten Free diet is supposed to help thosse with Asperger Syndrome or Autism. I’ve tried it and found it really works!
I decided to go on a Gluten Free (GF) diet this summer(2007). Having read the Sunderland Protocol I am convinced there is a strong connection between Gluten (and Casein) and Asperger Syndrome and Autism.
As soon as I discovered the Sunderland Protocol, not long after I found out about Aspergers, I reduced my gluten intake. [...]
