But there is a di...I'm not sure this will help. But there is a diet called the Specific Carbohydrate Diet which addresses the link between autism and a leaky gut. <br><br>The book, "Breaking the Vicious Cycle" by Elaine Gottschall ( http://www.amazon.com/Breaking-Vicious-Cycle-Intestinal-Through/dp/0969276818/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1286938147&sr=1-1 )speaks about the cycle of how certain foods can damage the intestinal lining and make it prime ground for "bad bacteria".<br><br>Only thing is its not a completely vegan diet, and I know that you are. Yogurt is often used in the diet to reintroduce the "good" bacteria back into the gut <br><br>(I think there's a coconut milk yogurt recipe can be found in the Primal Blueprint Diet (http://www.amazon.com/Primal-Blueprint-Cookbook-Grain-Free-Gluten-Free/dp/0982207727/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1286938298&sr=1-1 )<br><br>Um, according to the SCD, it's the sugar overload in the gut which damages the intestinal lining and causes and overgrowth of bad bacteria. The toxins from this bacteria damage the intestinal lining, and leak into the body. These toxins also affect the brain's chemistry (affecting behavior, etc;). According to the diet's theory, being grain free/casein free isn't enough -- it's important to get off all things that can be converted into sugar inside the body (like sugar, soy, starches, yeast, etc; found in most processed goods). <br><br>It's not an easy diet to follow. I was on the diet, but fell off after a trip up north to see someone. But, I did notice a change, and plan to get back on the wagon.<br><br>This is just for information. I think there are vegan alternatives to the diet...but not sure. You can check all of these books out at your local library to study.<br><br>Take care. God bless you and your sons, and I hope this helps. <br><br>There's a group called PecanBread http://www.pecanbread.com/Deehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17526799841384271001noreply@blogger.com
