Hi Tanya,
My boys both suffered with chronic ear infections.  Once I took them off of
dairy it cleared up within a month or two.  I also was recommended to eliminate
starchy foods as well.  This has also helped.  My boys have not had an ear
infection since October of last year.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Lisa
