I just wanted to tell you how your LEAP Testing was life changing for my son and my family. This time last year my son was considered delayed in many areas. He was two years old and not speaking, and not making eye contact. David had many therapists and was making little if any progress. His developmental specialist said that she suspected Autism. His delays were not his only problem. Poor little guy was always sick. He had yellow runny stools everyday. He ate all kinds of different foods, but was always sick. He would wake every two hours throughout the night and cry scratching his stomach. The closest thing that I can compare it to would be when an infant has colic. It was uncontrollable crying. David was growing fine and his doctor said that he just had stomach flu again, but David had dark circles under his eyes and was not interactive at all. He was so sick and in his own world. It was the hardest time of my life.

I had to do something to help save my little boy. I began reading and reading. Dietary invention seemed like a very safe and noninvasion way to try to help David. I first thought he had Celiac Disease because his symtoms were the same. I had David tested for Celiac Disease, and it came back negative. I also had him tested for food allergies through his doctor and the test did come back positive for egg whites. David was eating eggs every morning. I removed them from his diet and he improved a little. I then removed dairy products because I thought although it was not an allergen he might be lactose intolerant. He imporved even more. I was reading about how the Gluten Free/Casin Free diet helps many Autistic children, so then I removed all wheat/gluten products. David improved immensely. I was certain that his diet was crucial for his well being. Then I hit a brick wall. David was avoiding all the foods that I thought were bothering him, but was still having some bad nights and days.

Once I found out about the LEAP testing I was thrilled. I was so excited because I knew that David was sensitive to foods, and now I had a way to test him. His test results were incredible. He tested reactive to 53 out of 150 of the items. He was reactive to many things that I was giving him in his daily organic foods like honey, vanilla favoring, lemon flavoring, strawberries, pinto beans, almonds, and white potatoes. The list goes on and on. But then our life changed as we changed David’s diet. He started to sleep at night. The dark circles were replaced by bright eyes. He started to make progress in his therapy sessions. His so called stomach flu was cured. The LEAP testing gave me the tools I needed to personalize his diet.

David is currently on a very restricted diet, but he is happy. He did receive the official diagnosis of Autism in August, but he is improving so much with dietary invention that we are hoping for a full recovery. He is an inspiration. Thank you so much for the LEAP testing. I know that David would not be well without it. It was a miracle for us because it showed me what he could eat so he could begin to thrive.

I hope that other parents will read this and be able to personalize their own child’s diet because has been the most effective treatment for our son to this point. He is doing many hours of therapy every week, however, he couldn’t get through the therapy sessions and learn if he was sick. Many foods were definitely making him sick and have been removed.

If you ever have any parents of a children with autism, please tell them there is so much hope with Dietary invention and your LEAP testing. You’re LEAP testing changed our lives.
