We've been doing special diets since Kyle was 30 months old. We started with GFCF, soon went soy free and potato free - those were 2 of the 30+ items on his food "allergy" test. We did SCD for a year, but he developed a nut allergy and we went back to GFCFSF. After a few years we let up on the grains a bit. He eats a little organic oatmeal and wheat every week. We've settled into a mostly casein free, soy free, preservative free, artifical coloring free, artifical sweetner free, MSG and excito-toxin free very low sugar and I'm sure there are others.
