Not so. Tourettes is hereditary (genetic), it has has nothing to do with infectious agents. Our son and I both have mild cases of it, and one of the best things we found to help was diet. Avoid things like yellow #5, sugar and neurotoxins such as aspartame and MSG.

    I have cooked for 9 years for a husband with celiac disease.

    There are good news and bad news for you and your daughter.

    The bad news are: it cannot be healed. People with that
    condition will have it for the rest of their life.

    The good news are: if a strictly gluten free diet is kept,
    the patient can lead a happy life to old age! No other rules
    have to be kept, unless there are already medical conditions
    as a result from a diet that wasn't right for her.

    If your daughter has not known, so far, that she has celiac
    disease, she will probably have eaten a lot of wrong things
    and her intestine could be damaged, she may be lactose intolerant
    and may have malabsorption of various nutritents, including
    calcium, so her bones should be checked for osteoporosis.

    Any other medical problems should also be checked for a
    connection with a possible mineral or vitamin deficiency,
    because the damaged intestine doesn't absorb food elements
    like it's expected. So even if she eats a perfect diet,
    as long as her intestine isn't restored, deficiencies
    can appear or continue.

    Again good news: with the proper diet, her intestine can
    regenerate and all these problems can move to the past.

    She needs to avoid any and all products that contain wheat,
    rye, oats or barley (or other grains from these families).

    Other grains are OK, specifically mais, buckwheat, rice,
    millet and potatoes, which is not a grain but can well be
    used instead.

    She needs to read any and all labels of canned food, because
    wheat flour is in many sauces (that go for instance with canned
    fish), sugo etc. etc. Also labels that contain "modified starch"
    should be avoided, because there could also be gluten in this
    starch (but not if it is mais starch or potato starch, these
    are certainly gluten free because the whole plant doesn't
    contain gluten).

    If she is a devoted cook, she will be unhappy because she
    cannot use wheat flour for bakery anymore. Commercial producers
    of gluten free food use exotic combinations of flours to arrive
    at a texture that resembles wheat flour, but without the gluten
    it will never work the same way, and most times they try to
    emulate WHITE wheat flour, which is an inferior raw material
    to start with.

    I have developed a flour mix that tries to emulate WHOLE GRAIN
    flour, and does without any of the very expensive ingredients
    that commercial companies use and that are so hard to come by.

    1/3 whole buckwheat, 1/3 whole brown rice (both ground in my
    own electric grain mill), 1/3 potato flour. To the finished
    mix, I add between 5% and 10% brewer's yeast. This adds protein
    and a healthy Vitamin B complex of which the wheat flour has
    a lot but the other grains don't. Dietary fibre comes from the
    brown rice. The Vitamin E which is in the wheat flour will have
    to come from other sources (nuts, oil).

    The ingredients can be varied in percentage. If the flour tastes
    too strong, use less yeast. If it is too rubbery (my way of making
    up for the missing gluten), use less potato flour. If the buckwheat
    taste is too strong, take some of that out and either increase
    the other two, or add some mais or millet flour (millet is a good
    source of silicium and other minerals). If the product is too
    brittle, use less rice or mais. And so on...

    I have made everything under the sun with this mix, from noodles
    to cakes to bread to lasagne and pancakes and tiramisu and everything
    else. As a general rule, expect the products to make more crumbles
    and be less elastic and break easier than wheat products, but this
    is also true for most commercial gluten free products, which have
    the general disadvantage that while they don't contain gluten,
    they are not made by the holistic rules of the modern wellness
    kitchen, so that dietary fibre and many minerals and vitamins
    will be missing that should be in a flour or flour mix.

    Unfortunately I don't know anything about Tourette's, but I hope
    I could help at least a little!

    If you have specific questions, you or your daughter may want to
    contact me directly, as I don't always have the time to read
    my mailing lists. But there are also good books out there.



    All the best,
