We occasionally get letters or comments from parents that have seen improvements in health with REID. To help provide hope to so many still in the trenches, I’ve decided to make more of an effort to share some these comments (with their permission, of course). Many of us don’t have it all figured out, but we cling to the hope and words of progress. Everyone’s journey is different, diet changes may not reap huge changes for all, but it is absolutely helping some. Like this family, glutamate and the REID diet have been a huge piece to our puzzle. Thank you for giving us hope…
“We have seen HUGE gains following the REID protocol. My daughter was diagnosed with autism a few months after her second birthday. We started intensive ABA, OT, and speech. We did not see big gains until we started this diet. Her language before her diet was ten words or less now it’s in the hundreds and we have only been on the diet 7 months. We recently went back to have her evaluated and they said she does not meet the requirements for the diagnosis for autism anymore. She is still catching up on speech but she attends a typical preschool, does gymnastics, and doing all the things they said she wouldn’t do. For us healing began with removing free glutamate.”
