Thank goodness there's someone else! Yes, family and dear friends are different, I still want to help them and a couple of them have completely turned their health around on low carb, after being very doubtful at first. It's awesome your 12 year old grandson did his own research. That's a smart kid. His health issues sound similar to a co-worker of mine. She can't eat dairy and a touch of gluten will mean an emergency. She is investigating paleo now too.
