Thank you for the gentle reminder. I was not trying to advertise but felt that it would be misleading if I didn't identify myself as a rep. I will definately ask permission before making any futher posts that could sound like advertising.
As for the topic...as an educator, I would like to caution everyone who is looking to change their child's diet to first try to elimiate one element and then move from there. I have several chronic illnesses and I am personally in the process of trying this myself. My best advise is the baby food system. Try one thing for a week, see if there is a change and then move on from there.
Asa a parent, I found the Women's World article (it came out the first week in October) to be slightly misleading and I am worried that there could be some disappointed parents if it doesn't work for them. For example, Wildtree was referenced in the article but only as a place to buy all natural products but I could see where a parent looking for answers could see it as an aid to a cure. This is why I answered the post. I know that the product Wildtree has to offer is all natural but in no way should be said to be a cure. Do I think that the product could benefit those trying this type of diet, yes absolutely. But please do not associate Wildtree with any type of cure.
I have done a lot of research on diets (my best friend's son is Autistic and is on the low functioning end of the spectrum)after Jenny McCarthy was on Opera. Yes, there is a lot of benefits but there is a sense of false hope. Although I identified myself as a Wildtree rep, please know that I understand what most of you are dealing with and my ONLY reason for posting here is to make sure that no one gets taken advantage of or mislead. I feel that there is a lot of people who have had great success with diet changes and some that have had great disppointment.
Just so you know, this doesn't mean that I don't think a diet change is beneficial...I absolutely think that it could be but I caution that anyone who tells you their child was cured or makes it sound like it is a cure is misleading you.
Best of luck to all, I am so glad that I found this forum as a parent, educator and friend of a person with a special child. I think that anything you try as a parent to help your child is worth it and I look forward to reading more posts on this and many other topcis!
