Case Studies 3 Hyperactivity, Learning Disability, RhinitisAn eight year old boy presented with: 1. Hyperactivity, and disruptive behavior at school. 2. Learning disability/ attention deficit. 3. Chronic rhinitis with frequent "colds". 4. Moodiness, restless sleep, and nightmares. This child had always been difficult and irritable. As an infant on a cow's milk formula, he suffered colic, sleeplessness, and screaming fits. He was troublesome as he became mobile; he was constantly in motion, destructive, accident-prone, and pugnacious. He often "attacked" his playmates with hurtful punching, kicking, and biting. Disciplinary measures seemed ineffectual. Poor adjustment to school was apparent immediately with apparent inattention, inability to sit, and loud, aggressive, destructive behavior. He spent two years in kindergarten, and then was moved into a special class where he remained a problem. Psychometric testing at the end of the third school year revealed above-average intelligence, superior spatial abilities, but poor language development. Nose congestion and cough were common symptoms throughout his life and he had frequent "middle ear infections" treated with numerous courses of antibiotics and decongestants. Tubes had been inserted in his ears on three occasions with temporary benefit. He remained an idiosyncratic eater, specializing in milk, dairy products, bread, pasta, potatoes, meat, and apple juice. He refused all cooked vegetables, but would eat raw carrots. His favorite dinner was Kraft dinner with cheese, and Jello or ice cream. He had intense sugar cravings and defied his mother's sugar prohibitions. Mother would find cookies, candies, and chocolate bars stashed under his bed, and on one occasion he was caught stealing chocolate bars from a local store. He often complained of stomach aches and leg pains. He did well on the Alpha Nutrition Program with remission of all his physical symptoms as long as he stayed with safe foods. His "addiction" to junk foods asserted itself from time to time with obvious return of symptoms. Asthma, Diarrhea, Learning DifficultiesA 10 year boy presented with the following problems: Asthma of four years duration, with episodes of coughing, wheezing, and associated emotional outbursts. Diarrhea occurred intermittently, often with associated crampy abdominal pain. He had had several medical investigations for this, with no abnormalities detected. Medications had been prescribed to relieve pain. Temper tantrums occurred several times a week. While this child was often pleasant and cooperative, he would have episodes of agitated, refractory behavior, often fighting aggressively with his sister and brother. Learning difficulties at school were attributed to difficulties concentrating and to "attention-getting". He was often restless at school, talking inappropriately and acting "silly". His language skills were 1.5 years behind his grade level and he was receiving 5 hours of special help per week. Psychological evaluation had shown above-average intelligence, but low language performance scores and attention deficits. The child's original diet featured 4-6 glasses of milk per day, Cheerios, grilled cheese sandwiches, Kraft dinner, apple juice, carrots (raw), beef, potatoes, hot dogs, whole-wheat crackers and cheese, ice cream, cookies, Coke, and the occasional cooked vegetable. He was described as a "picky eater" and refused to eat most foods not on his favorite list. He often ate compulsively; for example he would eat several bowls of cereal at one sitting, or repeated servings of crackers and cheese. He did well on the Alpha Nutrition Program (and remained well at a 2- year follow-up). By Week 4, his parents stated there was "... a world of difference" and he was "...a joy to experience". The asthma, diarrhea, temper tantrums, and attention deficit all improved together, showing that they are not separate problems, but simply different manifestations of the same all-powerful food allergy process. There are many ways for food problems to interfere with a child's normal functioning
and to promote disease. We assume that several problems interact in a complex
manner to produce the symptoms and dysfunction that we seek to remedy.
