Note to Mamas of yeasty kids: This menu is not fully suitable if you are in the early stages of yeast eradication.
Your best guide for a yeast diet can be found in Donna Gate’s Body Ecology Diet Book, and support can be found on her amazing parents’ community website: BEDROCK. Unsure about yeast? Take a look at Charlie’s behaviors and severe lack of focus before we cleaned his diet. (Charlie’s Before u0026amp; After Symptoms)
Remember– We aren’t just healing The Child, we’re healing the Entire FAMILY.
Sample Weekly Menu
I post these on my fridge so even Charlie knows what he’s eating on any particular day.

Carolyn offers encouragement and knowledge so other moms can experience the same successful results as her son. One of her older sons, also ADHD, struggled for YEARS with O.D.D. symptoms. She wants you to know you can have control over symptoms even when given that VERY overwhelming ADHD or O.D.D. diagnosis.
