GFCF eating
I spend a fair amount of time on the Celiac’s Delphi Forum, as well as the Asperger’s (High Functioning Autism) Delphi Forum web sites. (You’ll find the links in the lower bottom corner of this page).
Today one of the posters asked us if we blog. So, in honor of her, I decided to post this for the onlookers of my web site and blog.
For those who have no clue what I am talking about…let me explain. GF means Gluten free (as described on my web site) and CF means Casein free (Which is dairy/milk protein)..also discussed on my web site. By being free of these foods, people can live symptom free from Celiac’s, get relief from some allergies and it helps tremendously with people on the autistic spectrum.
I have a four page packet that I pass out to those who ask for it. It informs the individual how to incorporate a GFCF way of eating into your life. In this day and age, we are so lucky to have stores full of GFCF foods. There are recipe books and tons of web sites and Internet connections to help, as well as an abundance of knowledge.
My son has been GFCF for almost four years now. He’s done great and it is my passion to help others who need to change their way of eating. I even provide free tours of the local Whole Foods Market.
Many people ask me, if I eat GFCF, too. No, I do not always. But, yes, I do sometimes. I am very careful to keep my son’s foods separate. In fact, he has his own freezer, only GFCF foods are allowed in there. He has his own bagel cutter and his own toaster. A few weeks ago we went out to lunch at PF Chang’s and we all ordered from the GF menu (making sure everything was CF, too) .
