My child has intollerances ? Please help?!
Question: My 5yr old son has intollerances to certain preservatives/colourings etc in food. His symptons include hyperactivity, night terrors, tantrums, lack of concerntration, inability to sit still (main reactions), n sometimes itching, stomach aches(but not oftern). I have him on a diet with no nasty preservatives, and no colouring (160b really reacts with him). When he would have a reaction we definitly knew as he would become glazed in his eyes, talk very loudly, become hyperactive, over emotional, tantrum throwing etc. Although we have noticed a great improvement in his behaviour, after changing his diet in the last 4 months it seems that he is slightly showing signs of an intollerance again?!?! Not as bad as before at all, but enough to be concerned (and mentaly drained from)! Has anyone any ideas? Or has anyone had any similar experiences with there children, or themselves as adults?? I would appreciate any info that could help my son and our family with this? Thanks

One of my kids won't eat much of anything. If a vegetable goes in his mouth he immediately projectile vomits. He will not eat ketchup or puding or anything with that texture and cannot drink milk it upsets his stomach. We found out last year that he was hypoglocimic also so He had to learn to listen to his body and learn sutle hunger cues so he could catch it before his blood sugar crashed! I know it is not the same thing but It is a eating problem.
You can try histamine as homeopathy, e.g. 6X. And take 2 days per week for eating rice and/or potatoes only. Avoid wheat and milk (and products).
