My son 23 months old has been diagnosed wheat allergy. Wanna know:
1. Is it curable?
2. What is the corrective action?
We are of course getting in touch with specialist help but wanted to know from hardcore experience of any parent who have had similar problem with their babies.

There is no cure, you have to take wheat out of his diet completely. It is difficult and you have to always be checking labels but a lot of people do it successfully. Check for websites and support groups. I have known kids that act out with ADD and ADHD symptoms because of wheat or gluten allergies and when it was taken out of their diet they were fine.

Are you sure it is a wheat “allergy” and not a wheat or gluten “intolerance” If it is a wheat allergy, then he might outgrow it or possibly take allergy shots for it. If it is a gluten intolerance, then gluten containing products will always have to be avoided.

    It isn’t curable.
    Celiac Desease is extremely common, and many areas have parents groups that meet on regular basis to talk about recipes, and avoiding wheat.
    I know a few adults with this condition, and though difficult there are many more resource out there now than in years past, many books and alot of things actually say Gluten Free right on the package, whole food mart has aisles for it, and other stores have sections.
    Since your son is so young, in a few months eating this way will feel normal. There are pastas made out of corn and rice, and cookies (good cookies) without wheat,good luck.

    EXCELLIUM is the mycelium of Ganoderma Lucidum which contains a spectrum of ingredients such as vitamins, minerals and enzymes. During the early stage of growth, the mycelium of Ganoderma Lucidum is harvested approximately one month after germination. Gano Excel is the world pioneer in producing and commercializing mycelium (Excellium). Excellium is also known as “The Brain Tonic” as it contains plenty of Organic Germanium which increases the oxygen levels in the blood. Excellium is best taken with Ganoderma for maximum complimentary effect where Ganoderma does provides the healing effects while Excellium supplies the necessary nutrients.
