What is the best diet for a child with Autism?
Once a diagnosis is given how much more is involved in trying to figure out which food might be involved in the Autism? Have they even determined a connection with the process food and Autism?. What are the latest food decisions on children and autism? Have they changed their mind very often over the concept of food allergies being part of what causes Autism?

That said, obviously *ANY* healthful diet is good for *ANY* child.
That said, there are *SOME* children with Autism who *MAY* also have dietary issues that may be linked to a condition called "Celiac Disease". There is no direct link between the two conditions, but having Autism doesn't mean they *DON'T* have something else, as well.
With any diet, make sure that it is a well-balanced diet. Too many people try to remove certain things from their diet without taking good nutrition into account.
(I was improperly diagnosed with Celiac disease in the past, and had to eat a gluten-free diet for about a year before it was properly diagnosed as something else.)
