[QUOTE="SRL, post: 117667, member: 701"] Just a note to consider while you're doing your research-- Kids sometimes will be atypical on some of the symptoms. Others will be borderline and fit most of the symptoms but in milder forms. I have one of those so I was always left scratching my head on whenever I saw a symptom list. There's a lot of variation with a lot of gray area because it is a spectrum disorder. I wouldn't jump into an elimination diet for a child with sensory issues before getting sensory supports into place. Kids who have sensory issues relating to foods and food disorders can really suffer emotionally and physically by changes in diet unless the new foods don't assault them. I'm not saying not to try, I am saying you need to understand the sensory implications and have those bases covered first. [/QUOTE]
