That is something each individual family has to decide, but one thing I know for sure, is that we are all a bit healthier, because of the influence of this diet. Both of our boys are GFCF at minimum, the rest varies per person. I quit dairy for the baby while I was nursing and although I will occasionally cheat, since I've stopped nursing, I am actually happier dairy-free! I am not gluten free and neither is my husband, but having GFCF foods around more frequently certainly lessens our exposure.
Even our little guy eats like us! Here is his plate full of food for lunch: bison, raw snap peas, a few raw piece of portabella mushrooms, homemade hummus and homemade almond bread. You can see what he reaches for first, we have a couple of carb junkies, the apple doesn't fall too far though (wink)!
Being mom to a child with several food sensitivities identifies me with a new world, one of caution and education. I never knew reading labels and ingredients could become second nature, who knew that artificial colors and additives could create time bombs, that wheat and dairy could turn a child into a tantrum whirlwind...learn about our journey into the new world of food sensitivities and what they mean. THIS WAS ONLY THE BEGINNING!
