I'm impressed. You're truly well informed and very intelligent. You wrote something that people could understand and made the subject intriguing for everyone. I'm saving this for future use.

I have 2 boys - Mr 5 who has dairy and soy allergy and has very low tolerance to salicylates and amines. Mr 10 has dairy intolerance and is less sensitive but salicylates and amines are also a problem for him. Easter over the last few years I have found instead of chocolate we have an easter egg hunt with plastic eggs with Easter stickers, chicks and even the loose change out of my purse going into them - the children love it! This year we also did home made marshmallow, shortbread and pancakes cut out in Easter shapes. At the end of the day - it is about the tradition and making the day special - it doesn't have to be just about chocolate. I also keep an eye out for Easter activities and craft to do before easter - this year we made easter chick cards with the children's hands traced onto coloured card and cutout as the wings and an easter bunny paper plate mask. It is amazing what ideas you can get from websites such as yours and it is comforting to know that we are not the only family out there who has to deal with these issues. I know when I first found out my Mr 5 had dairy allergy diagnosed just at 1 year of age I felt very alone and confused. But with the help of a lovely dietician and the support of a good paediatrician (sympathetic to food intolerances) life slowly became easier and now we are aware of what foods are ok and which are not - now it is like second nature. Thank you Allergy Train - the products you source have brought a lot of enjoyment to my boys and made my life so much easier. Congratulations and keep up the fantastic work!

Hi Jenny

Cheers! TM.

I enjoyed reading your blog as we are in a similar position just reversed. Our 4 year old son has been diagnosed with Sensory Processing Disorder but I am now looking at food intolerances as a lot of his behaviour can be explained via this. Our elimination diet is already providing answers. I did read on the fed up with food additives site that sound sensitivity can be caused by food intolerances and also a thiamine deficiency which I am going to investigate further. Good luck with it all. It is definitely a long road with ups and downs but all worthwhile if there is light at the end of the tunnel.

I find the article you posted insightful. Thanks for sharing it.
