1. The idea that gluten is bad for most people

is utter nonsense. Yes, there are some for whom it is a problem. But that's less than one percent of the population.

3. You're so spot on, SheilaT!

Not only is the idea that gluten is bad for most people a ton of nonsense, but so's the idea that casein is bad for most people, as well.

Those experimental treatments and/or diets that have been applied to people on the autism spectrum are not only downright dangerous for them, because they can either cause death, or deprive them of essential nutrients that's needed for bones, nerves, teeth, and the res of the body, and, especially for children and teens, the nutrients, minerals, proteins and vitamins needed for normal growth and development, as well.

Moreover, they're forms of abuse that are inflicted on people who are on the autism spectrum by those who are ignorant, or vicious and cruel.
