[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 524489, member: 1169"] Not dumb at all! If you google "Feingold diet" you can find out lots more. Basically, the protein in wheat/barely/rye (gluten) and/or the protein in dairy (caesin) can cause a negative behavioral and/or gastrointestinal reaction in people with an intolerance for them. There is something in apples (and I think pears) as well as aspirin that can cause neurological issues in people with sensitivities. Same with ALL of the artifical ingredients (dyes, flavors, preservatives) -- some to a greater degree than others. These aren't "true" allergies so allergy testing doesn't help in this area. There are lots of theories about WHY these things impact some kids so negatively and don't seem to affect others, but they don't know for sure yet. My logic in trying it was that (1) chance of side-effects is zero (2) safer treatment than drugs (3) my child needed something to help -- they were missing their own childhood!!! [/QUOTE]
