Trying to wrap my brain around what to set for my kid to eat. She is my youngest out of 3 and has a rash from food she is eating. As she’s in school and has a autistic/ADD sister that doesn’t understand her diet fully as gives her snacks too. We avoid some dairy products, but have added things.

Brittany, it really is such a hard diagnosis to get but you’re an awesome mom for helping her get one. Plus having a diagnosis this young means she’ll understand early on what she can and can’t have. Wishing you and your kiddo luck on this journey. If you ever need extra resources please feel free to message me! ❤

how are pasta and rice recipes possible? I am cooking for my 90 year old mother but i thought csid rules out these starch rich foods?

Hey! Thanks for asking about some of those starch recipes: I suggest substitutions like cauliflower rice or veggie pastas (zucchini or spaghetti squash noodles) if starch isn’t tolerated by someone. CSID is one of those finicky things that impacts everyone differently until you can find tolerance levels. My big trigger for flare-ups is sugar, so I tend to steer clear, but I can consume rice as an option. Food journals and writing down symptoms with different portion sizes are also great ways to test out tolerance levels for sugars and starches. Feel free to ask any other questions.
