Well my son is definitely making progress since he got on the RIGHT probiotics and digestive enzymes, after the osteopath got the Genova stool test results. He’s added guar gum (which means he can have Purely Decadent Coconut Milk ice cream now!), gluten-free oatmeal (my daughter and I failed that food challenge), and apples (he is SOOOO happy to have apples and applesauce back). Not sure what food is next. But I am so thankful that he is finally healing.
I tried my son on eggs about a month ago. His previous reaction had been crying uncontrollably for a couple hours the following day after ingestion (about 18 months ago). He said his stomach hurt that night, but that was it. So I increased his Molybdenum (helps sulfur foods) and tried again (put it in cake so he wouldn’t know he was getting eggs). I used quail eggs and it was the equivalent of 2 chicken eggs in a chocolate-coconut bundt cake. He had one small piece (maybe a 12th of the cake). About a half hour later he said
Turkey passed on Thanksgiving Day (brined, delicious). Then I made bone broth out of it (36 hours) and my son had some turkey soup, with ground turkey meatballs, and cauliflower in it. Delicious. He had a few bowls of the soup. So now he’s added back turkey, rice, and peas. We are on the road to healing (though he is reacting to something at the moment, and we don’t know what, so we’re stalled in adding things back in). Now that we’ve been supplementing Molybdenum for a month, I want to trial eggs, but we have to wait for the
I have decided to trial my son on turkey next Thursday, on Thanksgiving. He hasn’t had it for 17 months and now is as good a time to try it as any, and that way I don’t have to bring as much food to my in-laws for dinner. I made this Sweet Potato Casserole last week, which I think I’ll bring to the dinner, and I’m thinking of trying to make a green bean casserole (maybe I should do this beforehand to test it out….), and I still haven’t tried to make the pumpkin creme brulee now that
Last Thursday, we gave my son peas, for the first time in 2-3 years. It was one of his “moderate” intolerances according to the ALCAT blood test, but he’d already been avoiding it for about a year before the test due to the screaming all night long after he would have a helping of peas. He had about 3 Tbs. on Thursday, and… NOTHING. It’s the first food that he’s really gotten back with absolutely no symptoms at all. It means he’s finally healing. Hooray!! Now it can be added back into the rotation.
