The purpose of this study is to see whether participants with persistent developmental disfluency who report fluctuational disfluency due to vocal cord tension on a day to day basis of can achieve a more normalized fluency by identifying dietary allergen responses and subsequently eliminating these dietary triggers from their daily consumption.

| Dietary Factors and Disfluency: Variations in Severity of Vocal Cord tension | Initial fluency samples are taken prior to treatment protocol of study. Food sensitivity panel will be assessed for potential allergans. Allergan responses are graded from 0 being no response to food allergen to 3 being the strongest response and subsequent removal of sensitive allergan from diet. Speech sample and disfluency severity will be evaluated qualitatively again via the SSI-3 on repeat office visit at fixed interval scale. Erickson S-24 repeated at end of study and final conclusions made. | 1 Year |
