Talk:Oligoantigenic diet

This article is pure ad copy. POV violation.
Maybe what they are selling is good, but there is nothing here but selling.

I agree this article seems purely marketing, but what can be done?
I have been away from Wikipedia editing so long - and I was never that deeply involved - that I am no longer familiar with the procedures for flagging content problems.

I would also argue that actually this topic is of reasonable importance, given that food intolerance and food sensitivity is becoming a more wide-spread concept among laypersons and alternative health providers, at least in the U.S. Laypersons need good guidance, not marketing copy; so for example if they know about Wikipedia, they may investigate a topic here and wrongly conclude that because there is a Wikipedia article on it, that automatically lends credence.

I have flagged this article for a serious issue regarding WP:Neutral point of view
Per Template:POV, I have flagged this article for lack of a neutral point of view. Although the page initially presents itself as factual using third-party sources, the third and fourth paragraphs (beginning "The pain and discomfort" for the 3rd paragraph, and "The role of the Certified LEAP Therapist" for the 4th paragraph) are built entirely on the claims of a company marketing its particular tests for food sensitivity - see Oxford Biomedical Technologies and the related company website cited in footnote 4, CLT - Become a Certified LEAP Specialist. The entire article is built to point to these last two paragraphs; thus Wikipedia is effectively being subverted into a marketing tool for this company. For the article to remain relevant, either these last two paragraphs should be removed entirely, or third-party sources should be found that more accurately describe the possible clinical relevance of the so-called Mediator Release Test and where this test fits into the larger topics of food sensitivity and food intolerance. Aspects of these topics are contentious in the scientific, medical, and alternative health communities, so this particular topic on the Oligoantigenic diet should at least allude to the contention.

Additional Sources
I noticed that the external link in the first paragraph discussing the diet's effect on ADHD was a dead links. I tried to find an archived version but didn't have much luck. Here is an alternative sources that may be of use.

For ADHD: http://pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/early/2012/01/04/peds.2011-2199.full.pdf

"Oligoantigenic,elimination,and additive free diets are complicated,disruptive to the household,and often impractical, except for selected patients. Supplemental diet therapy is simple, relatively inexpensive, and more acceptable to patient and parent. Public education regarding a healthy diet pattern and lifestyle to prevent or control ADHD may have greaterlong-term success." --Flounder19 (talk) 16:15, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
