Jenny McCarthy comes forward

Jenny McCarthy has always been known as the loud mouth playboy playmate. Well now she is known as Evan's mom and a mom of a child with Autism. She isn't the only one coming forward. Holly Robinson Peete (known from her role in 21 Jump Street) has also come forward announcing her youngest has autism as well. It's nice to see this getting some attention because it's the people in Hollywood that the public most listen to.

Jenny McCarthy has said that putting her son on the gluten/casein free diet has changed him dramatically. His eye contact and his communication have come back since she started him on the diet. His journey started with febrile seizures even though he had no fever at that time. Gluten/casein free aren't for everybody as I've said before. It can be not only time consuming, but financial consuming as well. Your child might not accept this new food or they may devour more of it. It's not known who it will work for and who it won't. The best place to start is to ask your child's doctor to check for 'leaky gut'. Wes has no symptoms of this, therefore, we are not going that route.
