[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 472758, member: 3419"] Yes, but it's still really hard for us to get our difficult child to swallow large pills. And he hates fish ... unless it's totally covered in breading. :) Which he's allergic to. Now that he's mostly off of gluten, we no longer have to supplement iron. He was leaching iron and other minerals and vitamins because his body couldn't retain anything. It's been about 4 yrs and he is absorbing much more. I suspect if other kids are also gluten intolerant, they are also leaching valuable nutrients, and wouldn't have to take so many supplements if their diets simply eliminated gluten (and milk products or whatever they are allergic to or have sensitivities to). In addition, so much of our food is processed, we have to add vitamins and minerals back in. We have noticed behavior improvements with-our son when he is not on gluten. If he stays overnight at a friend's house and eats junk food, it shows up within a few hrs in the form of anger, impatience and sometimes violence, as well as stomach aches and headaches. [/QUOTE]
