Alis girls Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 ES has been advised to try above diet for a month to see if it helps his symptons. Typical teen - eats like a horse and seems to like avoiding fruit n veg unless I force them into him I am sure there are several forum members on this diet or kids who are. have good booklet from dietician but expert advice is welcomed. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluffyknickers Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Sorry only just seen this... My daughter has been dairy free since about 6months old (is also Soya free, wheat and egg). I am just going out but will have a think of some dairy/soya free stuff. x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patricia W Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 My sister has MS and has been on a wheat free, dairy free diet for 5 years or so. She just uses substitutes or leaves the offending item out. She looks very well on it so maybe I should try it. Tricia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fluffyknickers Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Oatly 'milk' is nice enough and they also do an oatly cream (online or waitrose). Chocolate oatly is nice too. For spread I use Pure (get soya free one) available at most supermarkets and also vitalite. Bread - there are not that many Soya free breads but the easiest one was a tesco finest one and is brown or granary. Check some pitta breads as these were often fine to eat and we would have them with houmous. I find ideas as to what to put in sandwiches hard as my daughter also egg free but we tend to give her things like jam, agave, pate (tesco finest one is only one I can find that is egg/dairy free). if eggs are allowed and liked there are some mayo/salad creams that are free from. Biscuits - just use pure/vitalite instead Cakes - same as above or I make a chocolate brownie with vegetable oil instead (if you want the recipe let me know). I tended to look at a lot of Vegan things and before she was off wheat too I would say she is a Vegan who eats meat! Eating out - best place was Pizza Express as she would have a pizza without the cheese. If she was having a macdonalds treat she would have the fish fingers and fries. Breakfast - would be toast or cereal with oatly. Check cereals as some do have dairy in. As a treat she would have coco pops. Things that required a white/cheesey sauce i would simply leave out so for example I would make lasagne and either use oatly to make a white sause with no cheese or just have layers of mince with pasta. There are some lovely puddings like a rice one but I only found these on line (rice & rice). A lot of the time My daughter would have jelly and oatly cream for pudding! Sweet treats are things like Orgranic chocolate (online or waitrose) and marshmallows. I would also make rocky road with hob "Ooops, word censored!" biscuits and pure spread and cocoa and marshmalklows. Let me know if you need more info.
