From A (Autistic Spectrum Disorders) to ZZZ (Insomnia)

Book excerpt: This book was designed to help you follow a diet free of gluten (wheat, barley, rye, and oat) and casein (dairy). It will also help you avoid yeast, caffeine, artificial colors, artificial flavors (especially aspartame and monosodium glutamate otherwise known as MSG), preservatives (including nitrites, nitrates, sulfites, sulfates), other additives (such as high fructose corn syrup and crystalline fructose), and excess sugar. This book was set up to help you transition from your decision to try this diet to actually sitting down and eating without having to do all the research to determine what you can eat day to day. This diet addresses the following conditions and issues: Autistic Spectrum Disorders, Schizophrenia, and Pervasive Developmental Delay (gluten-free, casein-free, and yeast-free); Celiac Disease (gluten-free); Fibromyalgia (gluten-free/wheat-free); Lactose Intolerance (casein-free/lactose-free); Behavior and Learning Issues, such as Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (no artificial colors, flavors, additives, or preservatives).
