I think gluten is in wheat and casein is in dairy products. Am I right? Taking out wheat and dairy products from a child’s diet is a major part of his diet. What is he supposed to eat instead? We tried to eliminate these from his diet, but he just was too hungry. What should we do? And how long does he have to live without these foods? For the rest of his life?

If so do you have any advice???
I am already a vegetarian. I do not consume alot of dairy products but I do eat eggs occasionally for protein.
If you are a raw-foodist how do you get enough protein and how do you feel about eating this way?

I heard that eating your veggies and fruits raw should diminish your chance of getting cancer.Sowe have been eating raw veggies and habe been making fruit and veggy smoothies No meat, no dairy products lots of rice and rice products and all kinds of grains nuts and tofu. Almost no fat except for olive oil no sugar,ezcept when it is in prepared foods and juices. It is a lot of fun once you get the hang of it and is easy and quick to prepare. We feel quite energetic. and my headaches are gone – zap! I also lost 4 pounds in three weeks (fast enough for me)
But we love breads of all kinds and eat it, but we wonder if it is appropriate
with the raw food diet.

The recent Wife Swap episode got me thinking about a raw food diet and I’ve been researching its benefits. What about the bacteria and contaminents in raw food, especially unpasteurized meat and dairy products? Is it bad for you?

I am quite familiar with healthy eating, raw foodism, and nutrition (working on a B.S. in nutritional science) though my question needs to be answered by someone with far more insight than myself. I understand what enzymes are, how they work, and am a believer in both digestive therapeutic applications. I am also a fan of the raw food diet for the clean, simple, and ‘living’ factor, but cringe when I read about raw foodists ‘selling’ the notion that eating raw foods will increase enzyme activity in the body. As far as I know, our body starts producing enzymes in the form of amylase as soon as we begin to salivate for food. The harsh environment of the stomach denatures most proteins, which includes enzymes. How can we say that the enzymes are still in tact in the stomach on top of saying that they are ready and willing to help break down the foods that they let sit so nicely in front of us before they were consumed?
Thanks you guys, but just so you know, this is less of a personal question, and more of a scientific one. Also, I am not speaking about the consumption of raw meat, but about that of vegetables and/or dairy products
