Bad thoughts with TICS/OCD?

[Calicat]

Hi Jasminky,

I remember a big discussion awhile back on this forum about kids who were fed primarily soy formula as babies. Some moms, if I remember correctly, thought there was a link. You might want to search the forum for info on this at some point.

Jasminky -

 

We simply omitted anything made from dairy for 1 week......after 3 days we saw incredible differences in ocd, worries, bad thoughts, etc....I would say dairy is my son's number 1 trigger! though butter is fine!

 

I've also heard Soy can be a big trigger for children with ADD ADHD OCD tics, etc. so you might want to omit that next if you don't see improvement by taking dairy out.

 

I started omitting the things first that I gave to my child every day....it seems the things he loved the most were the worst for him!! Hard I know... but still so worth knowing.

 

If you want to do a food elimination program you can visit my web site at www.smallchanges.info and click on the "10 steps" page and there is a link to Dr. Rapp's food elimination program. you might find that helpful!

 

Hope this helps out!

mom2a- can you tell me how you tested for the dairy issues. My daughter was on Soy formula as a baby and never drank cow milk. Still does not. She really doesn't like eggs. She does though have a yogurt or two a day. But she has always done this. she also does not have a big variety of foods that likes or will eat. Her diet in other words is very limited as it is.
