Could there be a link between your child's learning disabilities and their diet?

"My belief is now -- and there is very good evidence for this -- is that the brain and the associated nerves are the number one site for gluten related disorders."

Could there be a link between your child's learning disabilities and their diet? Is it quite possible! There has been studies that have supported food allergies and a link to neurological disorders. Consider taking a closer look at your child's diet. Could the 8 common allergies be the bad guy? I often tell my sweet girl when she wants to indulge in food that is knowingly bad for her body and mind. "That food makes you go Kookoo for coco puffs, we don't want that, do we?"

She usually will tell me "NO!" And look for something else. Kids learn to listen to their bodies. You will be surprised at them when the light bulb goes on and they reject the food that is like poison to them. The human mind and body wants to be healthy, even if they are Nine years old!
