I am autistic and I have been on diet of gluten and dairy, casein free and I am still on biomedical treatment since I was 3 and now I am almost 16. God bless...
Thank you. My child is 3 year old now he is autistic n has sensory issues feeding him is a big thing for me. Am also following him dairy n gluten free diet
I have a son who has autism. My son does not speak. My son doesn't even eat solid foods and he is three and a half years old. I'm seeking all the help I can get for him. It is very hard and I cry about it everyday. I'm praying that one day he will be able to speak and eat. Watching your channel gives me hope 🙏
I completely understand. I’m experiencing this with my 3 year old boy. He only eats three different types of food. But I’m slowly introducing different type of food.
Please talk to the pediatrician, she will refer him for blood tests and he ll prescribe zeolites and probiotics that he might need, that will truly help for his well-being and his food intake, I hope he’ll feel much better❤️❤️❤️
I have twins and one is autistic I am going through the same thing with her and she is the same age. It is the hardest thing I’ve ever gone through in my life and I’ve wanted to kill my self multiple times because I had no hope of a future. But anyways the only thing keeping my going (and alive) is my relationship with Jesus. He has given me peace and joy and hope and it’s still hard but way better when I put my trust in Him. Hope that helps!
I too have changed the diet of my 2 year old, removed the dairy and glutens,, and he has actually changed a lot. This happened within less than 2 months. He has stopped toe walking, spinning around himself, he hardly does hand flapping, eats well, poops well, and above all responds to his name. ❤️
@@SaimTarikDairy milk is terrible for many reasons including allergy, the hormones in the milk which increase cancer risk, etc. It is not natural to drink another species milk. Cow's milk is for baby cows. Switch to plant milk.
My son is 4 and was just diagnosed with autism. I am changing his diet to gluten free as well, it seems to be helping him. Sometimes I feel overwhelmed with worry. I worry about his diet, his physical health, his mental health, his emotional health, it takes a toll on you. It’s just something I was never prepared for. This post helps me feel that everything will be ok and I’m not the only one going through this.
Late diagnosed audhd here that had a severely limited diet like that in my childhood because my mother understood it was important a repetitive diet was to me and gave me autonomy around food. Since my diet was so limited she taught me how to prepare it and got me involved- at around age 10 I ended up starting a special interest in baking because cookies were my favorite thing and she would let me bake whatever kind I wanted. I slowly learned to tweak the things I liked, and now after raising 2 neurodivergent with the same issues am considered the best chef in my extended family. Don’t count him out on being a chef just yet! I wish this information was available to my mom when I was a kid. After a lifetime of gut issues, I am just now in middle age learning I have a gluten intolerance and have switched to goats milk. Thanks for accommodating your child’s diet in this way, it’s so important to accommodate your child’s diet and change gradually. I know he will slowly add new foods over time as he is ready, just like I did. I can’t imagine how much more stressful my childhood would’ve been if my mother hadn’t been so accommodating and patient with me. Good job!
My sister and I have sons that are age 4, with autism. We have both thought about trying this diet. I’m happy to see your experience on this. I’ve heard so many people do it but have never seen or hear how they go about it. It’s so nice to hear yalls story and the steps y’all took to get to this place now. I wouldn’t say my son is in a diet right now. Though I will say two weeks ago he would eat tons of sweets and live off snacks. For his 4yo wellness visit, they told me he was below weight. It saddened me to hear because he really doesn’t eat much. I decided to take away all snacks. No more sweets and candy. I’ve seen a change. He requests a lot more for food and if he goes want a snack I try and find a big snack I can divide throughout the day and will give small portions of it to give him in between meals. I’ve seen a difference on his food intake. Maybe I will give the gluten free diet a chance too
I can’t agree with you more. I am raising a 4 year old ASD son. I have been following your channel and learned so much. My son is on GFCF diet and IGG restriction diet for 7 months now and I can tell the huge difference before and after. Since you mentioned about gut microbiota I would like to introduce this video with translating into Korean subtitle in my channel if you allow me to. This video will help so much for autistic families in Korea to know how important what to feed autistic children.
My son is autistic and very picky with a speech delay. He is almost 4 but can't construct a two words sentence. I'm getting concerned though I don't know what to do about it
Hi. The true cause of autism is emf!!!! Electro magnetic fields... They're sensitive to radiation ... Technology wireless devices lights led' s.... Do your research....
@@saintcolumbo8869 No... I have autism. I am not sensitive to radiation. I am sensitive to loud noises and pain. What you are saying is comparable to the statement: "The true cause of autism is gravity". These forces/currents do not make people autistic. Stop spreading misinformation. It is because of people like you I get mistreated. My previous school claimed autism was an intellectual disability, and that I was a danger to the school. None of this is true. You are just as uninformed as my old school...
My little guy is almost 2, is on the spectrum as well, and we have been starting to go gluten free and dairy free. I've noticed some signs of him being a bit picky, so I keep offering him a variety of foods! Thank u so much for this video. You all are awesome
My son is 6, No fruits, veggies or juice and something else that not match to his sensory disorder. It is very similar situations where I believe that parents have to try&try give new items, 1 in a thousand which he might choose but my heart blossom. 4yrs of trying there is not more than five thing that he eat but better than nothing. Hope Dylan enjoy more healthy food in the future , wishes to other moms, too. Neya is so cute.
There was no such thing as cooking for a child. You ate what was put in front of you or got your ass beat and went without. This stupid woman is feeding processed food which is a trigger!
Granny Jacque here, seeing your eldest son giving you a thumbs up for his mince and rice gives me inspiration. I have a 17 month old grandson who has not been diagnosed yet. But I'm feverishly watching videos like yours. Getting granny armed and ready, to support, and love on him. Blessings
I can really relate to your story. My son is 7 and on the spectrum. He didn’t sleep thru the night till he was around 4years old. That was when we took him totally off dairy. He also started talking and not having diarrhea all the time. I love watching your videos!
There is a connection between symptoms of autism and gut health. 😊 My son has shown marked improvement in terms of his hyperactivity and how he responds to his name. I am optimistic about his continued progress and eventual recovery.
Your video are a god sent and i want to thank you for sharing all that you have. It's helping me out with my little one. I really can't thank you enough. Much love ❤
Yup chicken nuggets, pasta, pizza. Gut problems. Tippy toe walking. Not many friends or interaction with others but very smart! This is what I see in my family member. He was never diagnosed with autism though and I fear labeling him.
Omg my nephew is almost 4 years old, he’s not diagnosed but I’m noticing some autistic traits in him like toe walking, sometimes hand flapping, just started talking, but he does interact with other kids.
Fruit and vegetables contain other nutrients which cannot be completely replaced by a multi-vitamin. Using the "small and gradual" approach, my wife got our fussy autism eating son to eat certain vegetables, e.g. spinach mixed with chicken, pumpkin mixed with rice, etc. And certain foods like blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, banana, avocado, watermelon he eats whole. Also he prefers her cooking to anyone else's as well. Also fruit smoothies can be used to hide some blended vegetable ingredients as well.
PLz aviod fungus food also, you will see the tremendous change . Let him eat flex seeds and walnut instead of almonds or almonds milk . Use coconut oil and flex seed oil as much as you can . Coconut milk .
Hi, I been giving healing to autism kids n results r amazing,3yrs old kid who was non verbal, he is verbal now just after 6months of healing n many more cases
Diet is important for autism..i have 6th year old boy with autism..the diet makes him calmer, less shouting, can sit for a long time, less moving, looks exactly in the eye for long time..i just started the diet 1 month ago, and feel so happy..yup my son looks a lot skinnier but healthy..he cant enjoyed food outside, can only eat homecooked meal..you arw doing good job!! Good luck for you too
The bottom line Some people feel they’ve benefited from the GAPS diet, though these reports are anecdotal. However, this elimination diet is extremely restrictive for long periods of time, making it very difficult to stick to. It may be especially dangerous for the exact population it’s intended for - vulnerable young people. Many health professionals have criticized the GAPS diet because many of its claims are not supported by scientific studies.
@@dirkvandammedvd it is every parent choice..they can choose to diet or not..it is important, but not a must...i am just sharing my experience..by hoping, it can be option for other parents while looking any ways to help their children...only the parents know what is the best for their child.. moreover, i didnt recommend the diet without health professional supervision.. dont do the diet for autistic kid recklessly by simply eliminating
@@ignafahin8015 Parents have the right to correct information before there made there decision. You can't "heal" autisme it's genetic. Stress, related to be autistic in a normal society, is de couse of problems with the guts.

@@dirkvandammedvd thx for your information..people only want to see and believe what they want to see and believe, you and i are no exception..the gluten,casein, sugar free diet for autism did really give positive effect to my child..while my awesome boy can be more focus, have ability to learn how to communicate with others, and also skill to live his own daily life..moreover he is healthy..previously before the diet, he has constipation, only once a week to poo, now he poo everyday, he is also picky eater, now he ate every single meal i offer him..so if you think this diet is not okay, it is dangerous, so let it be..believe what you want to believe..cause i want to believe what i want to believe, cause i see how it change my son..so he can survive in society, cause we cant change our society one night..it tooks time, and i am a mom who are fighting with time i am in rush for my children..and after doing the diet, i see hope..i dont know who you are, so i just think that we are having different options..bye
@@ignafahin8015 Believe idd.(Lol). I'm listening to science. You'r not gonna cure him of autism with it, that's my point. In the best case your make his guts better, his life easier, and finaly him happier and your life easier. but you'r not cured him from his autism.
I just watched your video and I want to say thank you so much! I just wanted to cry! Finally someone who understands how hard it is! Finally another mom who is talking about this! My son was just diagnosed a week ago and i'm at a loss of what to do - especially when it comes to eating. Your videos are an inspiration and eye opening for me! I cant get my son to eat hardly anything! I'm worn out trying to get him to just eat one thing healthy every day.
I saw your comment and just wanted to cheer you on! As long as some food is getting in, it's okay. I hope you can find him some favorites soon. My son (also on the spectrum) will sometimes drink fruit smoothies with spinach since we named it Green Monster :)
I didn’t breastfeed my first child too I didn’t know how to and nobody told me how much breastmilk Is important for your baby it’s basically food/medicine/vaccine everything combined and my first child is also autistic he’s 4 now . I’ve switched to camels milk and omg let me tell you it’s a game changer my child is like a totally different child, he’s a lot more calmer, responds to his name, makes eye contact and his speech has gotten better aswell, he used to look really pale now he looks alot more better I defo would recommend camel milk. It’s basically a cure for autism .
@@an_overlooked_comment_from Hey! I give him 4 ounces a day and no Autism will not go away however it will improve his/her symptoms but please do your research before you purchase camel milk is really expensive and may not work for everyone. I know of this because in the middle east, it has been used for centuries to treat premature babies and we believe it's the only milk in the world that is close to breastmilk and also scienctifaccly approved as well. The only downside is camel milk has less fat so you will have to make up for it with fatty food so your child isn't losing any weight.
2 of my 5 kids are severe autistic (both diagnosed before the age of 2). They are all about structure in food. I recently stopped gluten and milk products for them both. It definitely has effect in my daughter's body. She has the whole year constipation and since removing it, she finds it easier to poo. She eats a better diet now. I slowly changed it. Step for step. She is 11 and my son is 12. They both can not speak. They could speak both until 14-18 months and they both stopped talking at the same age. I love them. I learn you so much. Autism is something they choose for when they were born, they need to learn something in this lifetime and the people around them aswell. What did you learn especially from your child? But diet is everything I can agree with that. Much love. X
@@mariposa9617 the younger the child it should be easier to change his habits, as he won't remember after a month he ever had milk. There's coconut milk, rice milk, you can try mix it to get him used to anothertaste, also coconut yoghurt and gluten free pasta. When gut bacteria get better he should eat more things. He's still very young so he can develop very well
its hard and take perservernace. it doesnt always work for children either. but the healthiest body you can have will give you the healthiest brain you can have so always worth a shot x
My 2 year old son is autistic and I am having a hard time getting him to eat different foods. He will only eat pizza , hamburgers,waffles , chips , apples water and juice. I will definitely check out your other video .
This must be the autistic menu for sure… it’s the same menu for my nephew. If you introduce New food you need to give it every week or it will be put in the “I don’t like it” pile and they will refuse to eat. I was able to add hamburger to the menu. 🙄. It did take some time and lots of energy
We had our daughter on GF/CF shortly after she was diagnosed. Later, we did the Specific Carbohydrate Diet... I rarely left the kitchen with that one. Now I am attempting, with some recent success, to get her into Keto. Your message of "if at first you don't succeed..." rings true and is a comfort to all parents of special needs children. Hang in there guys!
6:36 I heard on a Ted Talk about conditioning your brain for study that you can bring a lamp when you study, and only light it when you study. So on the test your brain goes into study mode. Should be transitional(?) to eating. When eating at home to bring with some kind of on/off switched toy or rather, for when eating. And he just takes it with him when you go eat someplace else. Just a suggestion. Might be worth a try. Maybe you've already solved it. Twas over a year ago, this video.
Hi, my 7 yo son was diagnosed yesterday. This has been so useful, I have always noticed how when my son has lots of bread especially in the morning he seems more out of control. I will definitely be considering gluten free. He has always had issues with dairy and I was referred to a dietician when he was a baby. The dietician warned me against using goats milk because it's still mammal milk and has a very high percentage chance of having issues with that aswell. We give him oat, rice, cashew or almond whatever is on offer 😁
Have you read the Nemechek Protocol written by Dr Nemechek about the diet and how to “cure” (it’s more like relieve autistic traits and symptoms) autism? It’s great and it helped so many families
Another great informative video. Qiyam (Key-yahm) my great grandson who I wrote about in one of your other videos weaned himself off of milk. We found out he’d been allergic to it . He continually had a rash on his cheeks and chin. We thought it was a drool rash, but once he quit milk it went away. His diet consists of pediasure through his g-tube and a purée pouch of strawberry, peach and pear or broccoli, apple and pear for breakfast along with his formula. He may never eat regular food because of his texture sensitivity.
I’m thrilled to find your channel and I’m excited to help my son improve with his verbal and social communication skills. It’s hard to find genuine information on autism, especially from UK based families. Thank you so much!
you are a great mom, i would wanted to know everything when i was young with my little children and daughter with autism. (she is 30 now). You can use essential oils to help your child with all his symptoms fram anxiety and so on, it''s a great help here with all kind of things. Pick a very good brand.
What will they eat?? My daughter is sooooo picky, despite the fact that I started her on fruits, veggies, etc. My daughter didn't have gut issues, until more recently. My daughter loves milk, chips, pasta and tomatoes soup. And oatmeal and cereal. I sneak broccoli into some things, like teriyaki bowls. She'll eat it that way. But not most other ways. Eggs, they'll eat eggs. But I want to encourage her to eat more foods. Hard though because they are sensitive to texture.
THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH !!!! This video and these information are so important and you won't believe how comforting for me. It is so very hard on us parents with this issue , that only someone who is in it knows the pain and stress you go through for the love our little ones. Love all your videos. Keep being the wonderful mom you are , 😊. ❤❤❤❤❤
Hey!! Just one thing I had learned in my life... I m from India and we eat wheat everyday... As per to ayurveda, don't drink water after having any meal.. especially anything contain gluten n carbs.... It will stop the process of digestion and the food get stuck in the walls of intestine... Only after 50 mins of having one should drink water or other liquid...may be this can help in making digestion n gut strong
This is not true! According to Michael F. Picco, M.D. (MEDICAL DOCTOR) "There's no concern that water will dilute the digestive juices or interfere with digestion. In fact, drinking water during or after a meal actually aids digestion. Water is essential for good health. Water and other liquids help break down food so that your body can absorb the nutrients. Water also softens stool, which helps prevent constipation" Please trust medical doctors! I'm begging all of you... As a person with autism, I trust my doctor.
Something many people have noticed about milk is that it depends on the cow race. There are 2 kinds . Kasein A1 from ex Holstein cows is highly inflammatory and milk from ex Jersey cows is A2 and good eaven for some allergics. Mayby something to look in to ☺🐮⚘
I learned some medical schools offer no nutritional training, and those that do, medical students receive less than 24 hours and it’s often based on meat-dairy-egg industry-funded misinformation. There is a group of doctors, though, who are trying to change that: The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, pcrm.org - and their website may have some information about nutrition and autism. Re animal milk: humans are built to be weened from mammalian milk. We are the only species that continues to drink animal milk beyond natural weening as well as the only animal that drinks milk from another species. The casein (milk protein) and mammalian estrogen are among things our human bodies shouldn’t be ingesting and are causing a host of health problems (lactose intolerance is the norm, for example, for most of the world and a genetic mutation for those who can tolerate it). Anyway, all that to encourage you (and everyone) to switch to plant milk. Some studies are investigating if cow milk is associated with autism. There’s not enough info to be definitive, though. Whole-food, plant-based eating also helps the gut microbiom along with the probiotics. Sorry so long... I hope some of this helps you like it has helped us. ❤️
Thank you for sharing I have heard that and it’s very sad I think if we managed to sort out the whole diet thing they will be a lot less diseases and cancer is around today. X
This information may help a few families but it is out of date !! If you are serious about helping an autistic child , please look into how to use ketogenic diet or carnivore eating . Ketogenic eating is common sense , carnivore eating is also good sense . Lots of parents are learning they can really help to improve their child’s future! God bless your efforts!.😊
Omg it is like I'm looking into a mirror ;). My son never had normal poop and at 3 we removed gluten, milk and soy and he became a different kid, started speaking, sleeping better, no temper tantrums and his autism just became so much manageable for him... He won't eat food that me or his dad didn't cook either and has very specific foods he eats but something is better than nothing! Doctors tell us the same when we say diet did a lot, even family don't get it ;(
doctors only get 6 weeks training in nutrition and i really wish they have more of it. diet makes a huge difference for us all, why is it any different for our children on the spectrum ! x
Im actually here for myself lol thank you for talking about all of this. I never knew my gut problems were common for others with autism too. I just thought myself unlucky with health. I did feel better when i avoided gluten. Your video makes me feel i should go back :) thank you again.
@@ComingHometoAutism only reason i stopped was because i got pregnant and i wasn't having reactions too it anymore. For others curious gluten-free diet also made me go from 200+ to 135 lbs. Well heres to me trying to lose that baby weight i gained :) And thanks for the added advice. You really do comment back to people right away. Im very impressed and didn't expect you too. Buy im happy you did.
You are such a strong mother , I respect you for you hard work and patience as such young mother at the time when you had autistic child. Now, I know very well what you went through because my sisters is going through exactly same things, feeding problem, her relationship with her husband, she doesn’t trust and let anyone else to look after her autistic child , she thinks no body can understand her child as she does. This has affected everyone”s life in the family even mine , I feel sorry for my sister seeing her suffering so much , I try to help as much as I can but Such hard a job. I just think as parents or any other family member you have to accept that life will always be challenging with autistic child in the family , you have to be patient and strong to deal with it and be prepared for any challenge while they grow older.
Get your children allergy and food sensitivity tests. We found out my son was allergic to gluten, soy, dairy, meats, sunflower, peanut butter, vinegar, and so many more random things. Your child can be sensitive to so many things, just removing dairy and gluten is not enough. You must remove all sensitivities and allergies. My sons meltdowns became wayyyy less frequent and he no longer self harms
I've got a splash of autism as well, and I happen to be very good at reading body language (seems that way at least, but who's to say one's not deceived by the hope of understanding what's going on around us). And I know this is a bit orthodox and maybe even a bit rude to point out, but it's all for facilitating communication. So here goes: The petting on 8:06 starts of fine and dandy. Your boy raises his head in hope of the incoming pet, his sister nods 'yeah do it', he straightens his spine and raises his head when he's petted (as in pride and enjoyment), and he raises his hand to on top of the pad. And I'm not quite sure why, but it seems like you search for a response and you keep on petting him. He then lowers his hand from his pad in a stroking fashinon (I'm guessing as a hint that the petting should end (best case scenario would be 'in a similar stroking fashion'), but the petting goes on, so he jerks the hand away from the pad, while his sister signals to you 'put it down' with her eyes and head. It's a small thing, but the small things build up one's whole world, right? I often communicate through subliminal signals like this consciously, while most people unconsciously does. Not everyone notice this communication (I guess the stimuli is too low to trigger a conscious response), and I've learned to live with it and see the way other people function. But it's so nice when my communication is seen and my boundaries are respected. I get more relaxed. I've looked about on a few videos during this writing and what I notice is that the subtle communications of autistic children are overlooked by their parents. It's quite easy for most people to see if they know what to look for. I think that understanding this way of communicating is a bit like understanding animals - You have to be engulfed in their world and see the world through their movements - A bit like a tiny sign language. When I think about it sign language would actually be amazing to know for some autism people to know (as well as the people trying to get a read on them ofc ; )
Gosh we must be lucky. My son is 18 and was diagnosed at aged 2. He eats absolutely everything, especially loves veggies, drinks loads of water and poos at least once a day. I think the water he drinks (2-3 large glasses with every meal plus water in between) has really helped. Plus, as I eat a vegan diet, he eats mostly vegan at home and I think this helps too, as meat is hard to digest.
@@Rachel0731 I beg to differ, at least in our experience. Medically, I know that meat takes longer to digest, especially red meat, and soluble fibre is digested easily UNLESS you have gut problems, which is why many doctors put people that suffer from IBS on low fibre diets. And gut problems can often be triggered by a mis-shaped colon, or not eating enough veggies or drinking clean water. Which is why you see many people that eat the so-called Standard American Diet with large stomachs and abdomens,
@@amathesaxylady SAD is definitely bad and not what I’m advocating but if you look into GAPs diet or carnivore, many MDs state that meat is actually easier on the gut and the oxilates and anti nutrients in plants are extremely harmful to some. Not to mention high carb diets, full of soy or beans are extremely damaging. Dr. Natasha Campbell McBride, Dr. Shawn baker, Dr. ken Berry, Dr. Paul saladino are all excellent resources on this topic.
@@Rachel0731 these are the doctors that advocate the carnivore diet or extremely low carb keto-style diets. Those kind of diets, like any kind of diet really, are only truly good if you are eating whole, naturally unprocessed foods.
@@amathesaxylady yes, I agree, I’m not advocating any processed food. Just saying that I believe, along with many doctors, that a vegan diet can be very detrimental, especially to someone with any underlying issue.
What worked for my son was Almond milk, raw almonds, organic food, cabbage and fatty proteins (mutton). Also this link: ua-cam.com/video/coYJF0DIt0Q/v-deo.html
My Son is 8 and will ONLY drink milk!!! So He started to become extremely overweight to the point where He couldn't run or play comfortably So I switched Him to Almond Milk and That went Great!!! And like I herd U mention in one of ur videos That once ur Son stopped drinking cow's milk He was able to think clearly! Well other than almond milk He ONLY EATS a cracker/cookie, It's like a animal cracker. But He will only eat the animal cracker at school He won't really eat them at home. He just drinks cup after cup Over and Over till He goes to bed. I sneak vitamins into His almond milk to help Him get the nutrition He needs. I also put ground up flax seed in His milk To help Him poo regularly cuz He is Allways backed up.
Ok well my child's autistic and is very particular about food so if I take out wheat and gluten foods she will starve to death lol. I'm glad it's worked for your little one but it's a no-no for me 😊
I know this is all about diet, but I have a friend who works in neurology and she told me about how kids with autism shouldn't have as much time on screens because of how it affects their brain (she went more into it than that of course). What is your experience with the amount of screen time and how it affects him? My nephew, who is on the spectrum, is on his tablet or watches tv a lot so I've mentioned it to my sister.
Yes less screen time and if it is screen time and he is young like 3 to 5 keep it on nursery songs .. numbers and abc .. a quiet space to learn they will love..
The routine! He is so so so picky! Amd skinny because of it. Thank you so much for talking about the poo and all that. I didn't realize how those could be connected... I'll ask the doc about it. So grateful for your openness, honsety.
With my kids I discovered it wasnt the gluten it was the folic acid that made their autism worse. Nearly all wheat/grain based foods are artificially enriched with certain B vitamins (but all include folic acid). When we removed wheat/grain based foods they got better, then a specialist recommended we give them B-complex vitamins and specifically stated we should try the methylated B vitamins. So we did. Well, within a day or two they became completely mental. Raging, violent, their autism symptoms got worse, and they began regressing. We stopped the B vitamins and in a few days they got better. I decided to administer single B vitamins to see which was the culprit. And it was folic acid. It didnt matter if it was folic acid, folate, methylfolate, or follinic acid. All the forms of folic acid made them worse. Much much worse. Vitamin B12 also made them feel worse but not as bad as the folic acid did. To test the theory out further I went on the hunt for non-enriched, unadulterated, pure organic whole wheat. Literally just pure whole wheat directly from field to stone-mill to burlap bag. (Which is not easy to find, since nearly 100% of all the flour out there is enriched). And I decided to make homemade bread with it (like our ancestors did) and see what effect it would have on them. I didnt know what to expect. I gave them the bread, waited, nothing. No issues. No changes, no digestive disruption, nothing. I knew then, it wasnt the gluten, it was the folic acid, and they shove folic acid into everything. Even in gluten-free foods and foods you would never imagine them putting it into. Anything grain based, anything carb-heavy, has external folic acid added to it. They literally add it to dairy products too, under the label the general name of "vitamins". So if you have autistic children, try it. Remove all folic acid enriched foods and all all folic acid heavy foods and you'll see in a few days they will begin to change. Ours dramatically changed when folic acid was removed. But the problem is folic acid stays a long time in the body so if there is a folate overload in the body it takes a long time to flush, and there is no information available on how to encourage or speed up the elimination of it.
@@Doofus171 ok. Still theyre sensitive to electro magnetic fields.... Phone masts outside... Television. led lights. Anything that can connect to the internet wired or not... You don't have to be using these things to be exposured.theyre in the environment sending signals.... Research the electro magnetic spectrum and understand how you get a signal to your television house phone internet 4g 3g Bluetooth. Thank you
@@saintcolumbo8869 Yes, but its folic acid that impacts them. The higher the dose of folic acid, the worse it is. The total removal of folic acid (including naturally occurring high folate sources) and symptoms go away. Which is why the GAPS diet and other things like Keto or Carnivore diets work for autistics. People misjudged it as a gluten issue, when its actually a folic acid issue. For example, the GAPS diet coincidentally removes foods that are enriched with folic acid and those foods that are naturally high in folates.
Look I hear what youre saying..... but what causes autism in the first place??? Because they're sensitive to the radiation, that can impact on the food they eat by creating allergies that probably never would be there... Studies actually say that if you're pregnant too much folic acid from the mother can impact on the child...... Food is not the problem.... food had become a problem because your child is exposuresd some how to too much radiation.. You might take folic acid away and it might calm your child down but his still autistic ..... This is not about food the radiation to the body is causing the food problem........research....dont take my word for it.....
mom of authistic child with ADHD my angel thank you so much. We are very lucky here and I hope that my videos and my book can help people in countries where it’s not easy to access help. Us mums and dads can help our own children we just need to know how xox
My grandson has heirchsrungs colon disease. Dairy foods aren't good for him since he gets constipated from it. Bananas aren't good for him with the colon disease. Hes autistic also
DONE SUBSCRIBING MY daughter has autism too. It is really hard and challenging raising a child with autism. But God choose us to be their parents to love accept and protect them always.
I'm placing this out there for Clinicians, Scientists, or anyone who is interested in our son's steady recovery from ASD. Mid August 2020 our 3 year son was bitten by a Copperhead Snake and was rushed by Ambulance to a Hospital and given Antivenom. Since the incident he has been on a linear improvement in "All" of his symptoms. He improves everyday. He presence is even different. Someone needs to study this for ASD victims.
I have 3 kids with autism one is 3 years non verbal and the two are 13 and 15 speak little just like 2 years old i want help please and i cant afford for biomedical Rx
@@ComingHometoAutism I think you are in uk. If you ever get challenged with eds diagnoses (assuming you have it) please see Dr Mittal who works under Dr hakim the best in uk for eds. I was diagnosed with anxiety for years despite being unable to work due to pain fatigue etc. Doctors here in Scotland clueless. Dr Mittal diagnosed me with eds within minutes and then my kids. Best of luck 🙂
I am autistic and I have been on diet of gluten and dairy, casein free and I am still on biomedical treatment since I was 3 and now I am almost 16. God bless...
@@dirkvandammedvd very helpful.... Thank you
Thanks dear
Thank you. My child is 3 year old now he is autistic n has sensory issues feeding him is a big thing for me. Am also following him dairy n gluten free diet
Does biomedical treatment help?
@@DarkAngel-cj6sx Yes, it helps to calm down and help in concentration, also help digestion and tummy problem.
I have a son who has autism. My son does not speak. My son doesn't even eat solid foods and he is three and a half years old. I'm seeking all the help I can get for him. It is very hard and I cry about it everyday. I'm praying that one day he will be able to speak and eat. Watching your channel gives me hope 🙏
Keep the hope it’s all going to be ok xox
I completely understand. I’m experiencing this with my 3 year old boy. He only eats three different types of food. But I’m slowly introducing different type of food.
Please talk to the pediatrician, she will refer him for blood tests and he ll prescribe zeolites and probiotics that he might need, that will truly help for his well-being and his food intake, I hope he’ll feel much better❤️❤️❤️
Try nemcheck protokoll.it help to my daughter to speak in 1 week.And camel milk is helpfull for habitater.
I have twins and one is autistic I am going through the same thing with her and she is the same age. It is the hardest thing I’ve ever gone through in my life and I’ve wanted to kill my self multiple times because I had no hope of a future. But anyways the only thing keeping my going (and alive) is my relationship with Jesus. He has given me peace and joy and hope and it’s still hard but way better when I put my trust in Him. Hope that helps!
I too have changed the diet of my 2 year old, removed the dairy and glutens,, and he has actually changed a lot. This happened within less than 2 months. He has stopped toe walking, spinning around himself, he hardly does hand flapping, eats well, poops well, and above all responds to his name. ❤️
Does he take plant based milk? just curious as thinking to take off my 2 year old from dairy
What foods did you use?
Can you plz suggest something 🙏
@@SaimTarikDairy milk is terrible for many reasons including allergy, the hormones in the milk which increase cancer risk, etc. It is not natural to drink another species milk. Cow's milk is for baby cows. Switch to plant milk.
Which milk are you using?
My son is 4 and was just diagnosed with autism. I am changing his diet to gluten free as well, it seems to be helping him. Sometimes I feel overwhelmed with worry. I worry about his diet, his physical health, his mental health, his emotional health, it takes a toll on you. It’s just something I was never prepared for. This post helps me feel that everything will be ok and I’m not the only one going through this.
Thanks for the tips
God bless you! I feel the same and I don’t sleep much because I’m online searching and searching for anything that would help…How are things now?
@KashviAnand-qu1iq never heard of Dr oyalo how do he/ she heal is it with herbs
@queensmith2469 no mai
In che paese del mondo è? Io sono in Italia ho provato a cercarlo si google ma niente
Late diagnosed audhd here that had a severely limited diet like that in my childhood because my mother understood it was important a repetitive diet was to me and gave me autonomy around food. Since my diet was so limited she taught me how to prepare it and got me involved- at around age 10 I ended up starting a special interest in baking because cookies were my favorite thing and she would let me bake whatever kind I wanted. I slowly learned to tweak the things I liked, and now after raising 2 neurodivergent with the same issues am considered the best chef in my extended family. Don’t count him out on being a chef just yet! I wish this information was available to my mom when I was a kid. After a lifetime of gut issues, I am just now in middle age learning I have a gluten intolerance and have switched to goats milk. Thanks for accommodating your child’s diet in this way, it’s so important to accommodate your child’s diet and change gradually. I know he will slowly add new foods over time as he is ready, just like I did. I can’t imagine how much more stressful my childhood would’ve been if my mother hadn’t been so accommodating and patient with me. Good job!
My sister and I have sons that are age 4, with autism. We have both thought about trying this diet. I’m happy to see your experience on this. I’ve heard so many people do it but have never seen or hear how they go about it. It’s so nice to hear yalls story and the steps y’all took to get to this place now. I wouldn’t say my son is in a diet right now. Though I will say two weeks ago he would eat tons of sweets and live off snacks. For his 4yo wellness visit, they told me he was below weight. It saddened me to hear because he really doesn’t eat much. I decided to take away all snacks. No more sweets and candy. I’ve seen a change. He requests a lot more for food and if he goes want a snack I try and find a big snack I can divide throughout the day and will give small portions of it to give him in between meals. I’ve seen a difference on his food intake. Maybe I will give the gluten free diet a chance too
Its wonderful to be able to relate to such a warm honest family.
Melanie Bourke thank you so much xox
Ko
I can’t agree with you more. I am raising a 4 year old ASD son. I have been following your channel and learned so much. My son is on GFCF diet and IGG restriction diet for 7 months now and I can tell the huge difference before and after. Since you mentioned about gut microbiota I would like to introduce this video with translating into Korean subtitle in my channel if you allow me to. This video will help so much for autistic families in Korea to know how important what to feed autistic children.
@Azim Premji can you tell me what herb you use? please
GOD BLESS YOU YOU REALLY HELPED ME WITH MY GRANDSON EATING PROBLEMS
Iam a psychotherapist and I am grateful to you for all that you are doing. Yes diet does have a direct co relation to health in children with ASD.
My son is autistic and very picky with a speech delay. He is almost 4 but can't construct a two words sentence. I'm getting concerned though I don't know what to do about it
Removing gluten and dairy didn’t seem to help my son with autism as far as his gut issues when I tried in 2014. I’m glad it’s helping your son!
Hi. The true cause of autism is emf!!!! Electro magnetic fields...
They're sensitive to radiation ...
Technology wireless devices lights led' s....
Do your research....
@@saintcolumbo8869 No... I have autism. I am not sensitive to radiation. I am sensitive to loud noises and pain. What you are saying is comparable to the statement: "The true cause of autism is gravity". These forces/currents do not make people autistic. Stop spreading misinformation. It is because of people like you I get mistreated. My previous school claimed autism was an intellectual disability, and that I was a danger to the school. None of this is true. You are just as uninformed as my old school...
You have to cut sugar and processed carbs as well... the diet has to be radical.
@@saintcolumbo8869what do u mean? Theyre babies
You’re an amazing mum and should be very very proud of yourself🥰❤️
My little guy is almost 2, is on the spectrum as well, and we have been starting to go gluten free and dairy free. I've noticed some signs of him being a bit picky, so I keep offering him a variety of foods! Thank u so much for this video. You all are awesome
My son is 6, No fruits, veggies or juice and something else that not match to his sensory disorder. It is very similar situations where I believe that parents have to try&try give new items, 1 in a thousand which he might choose but my heart blossom. 4yrs of trying there is not more than five thing that he eat but better than nothing. Hope Dylan enjoy more healthy food in the future , wishes to other moms, too.
Neya is so cute.
There was no such thing as cooking for a child. You ate what was put in front of you or got your ass beat and went without. This stupid woman is feeding processed food which is a trigger!
Been dating a girl with an autistic son. Trying to educate myself since she's starting to bring him around.
@CBD Benefits I've heard of spirulina. Do you know how it helps?
Granny Jacque here, seeing your eldest son giving you a thumbs up for his mince and rice gives me inspiration.
I have a 17 month old grandson who has not been diagnosed yet. But I'm feverishly watching videos like yours.
Getting granny armed and ready, to support, and love on him. Blessings
Jacque Hewko hello there your messages make me smile! How amazing are you! Can I have granny Jacque in my life please ❤️
What’s is mince ? I thought she was saying mints
Minced meat
My Aspergers son improved out of sight when l cut casein out of his diet at age 10. Brilliant. 👍
I can really relate to your story. My son is 7 and on the spectrum. He didn’t sleep thru the night till he was around 4years old. That was when we took him totally off dairy. He also started talking and not having diarrhea all the time. I love watching your videos!
Jaime Stewart thank you for sharing x
Thanks for your tips
There is a connection between symptoms of autism and gut health. 😊 My son has shown marked improvement in terms of his hyperactivity and how he responds to his name. I am optimistic about his continued progress and eventual recovery.
Your video are a god sent and i want to thank you for sharing all that you have. It's helping me out with my little one. I really can't thank you enough. Much love ❤
Blue Bunny thank you so much this means so much to me as all I wanted to do was to even help one person. So thank you encourages me to keep going xox
Yup chicken nuggets, pasta, pizza. Gut problems. Tippy toe walking. Not many friends or interaction with others but very smart! This is what I see in my family member. He was never diagnosed with autism though and I fear labeling him.
Omg my nephew is almost 4 years old, he’s not diagnosed but I’m noticing some autistic traits in him like toe walking, sometimes hand flapping, just started talking, but he does interact with other kids.
Fruit and vegetables contain other nutrients which cannot be completely replaced by a multi-vitamin. Using the "small and gradual" approach, my wife got our fussy autism eating son to eat certain vegetables, e.g. spinach mixed with chicken, pumpkin mixed with rice, etc. And certain foods like blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, banana, avocado, watermelon he eats whole. Also he prefers her cooking to anyone else's as well. Also fruit smoothies can be used to hide some blended vegetable ingredients as well.
Absolutely thanks for sharing
How old is your son?? My son is very picky eater...I can't make him eat new foods no matter how I try
Thank you for sharing .I have a daughter 10 years old I have faced the same challenge with Autism . I am watching from Papua New Guinea
With you susa. Mine is 4 years old. Hope for better ❤
PLz aviod fungus food also, you will see the tremendous change . Let him eat flex seeds and walnut instead of almonds or almonds milk . Use coconut oil and flex seed oil as much as you can . Coconut milk .
I’m here for my little brother, he’s nine and got diagnosed with autism at three
Hey there thank you so much for watching hope your doing ok x

Do let me know if you need any help
What ways do you help with healing?

I use flavored bone broth powders to make a milkshake. I blend the chocolate flavor with almond milk and ice. My son loves it!
wow! amazing tip! i will definitely try this thanks for sharing! 👏❤️

Julie Madden thank you xox
I like this. I'll do my best. My son is only with me 50% of the year but I'll help him as best as I can
Diet is important for autism..i have 6th year old boy with autism..the diet makes him calmer, less shouting, can sit for a long time, less moving, looks exactly in the eye for long time..i just started the diet 1 month ago, and feel so happy..yup my son looks a lot skinnier but healthy..he cant enjoyed food outside, can only eat homecooked meal..you arw doing good job!! Good luck for you too
The bottom line
Some people feel they’ve benefited from the GAPS diet, though these reports are anecdotal.
However, this elimination diet is extremely restrictive for long periods of time, making it very difficult to stick to. It may be especially dangerous for the exact population it’s intended for - vulnerable young people.
Many health professionals have criticized the GAPS diet because many of its claims are not supported by scientific studies.
@@dirkvandammedvd it is every parent choice..they can choose to diet or not..it is important, but not a must...i am just sharing my experience..by hoping, it can be option for other parents while looking any ways to help their children...only the parents know what is the best for their child.. moreover, i didnt recommend the diet without health professional supervision.. dont do the diet for autistic kid recklessly by simply eliminating
@@ignafahin8015 Parents have the right to correct information before there made there decision. You can't "heal" autisme it's genetic. Stress, related to be autistic in a normal society, is de couse of problems with the guts. The biggest scientific research ever (with 2.000.000 patients) ki.se/en/research/focus-on-early-detection-of-autism?fbclid=IwAR1fiPEV4fAvQWs0GBet-xq-sjT8ny19hg0xZ5CakLxv9gYF5WQXwHG68W0 www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7213601/?fbclid=IwAR0H1JCpazQTC-NbkRtVGfGhwXtGOZH41gYJZzSzCn8xTOQ_ZIh04dP8HuE www.medicalnewstoday.com/mnt/releases/318425#1
@@dirkvandammedvd thx for your information..people only want to see and believe what they want to see and believe, you and i are no exception..the gluten,casein, sugar free diet for autism did really give positive effect to my child..while my awesome boy can be more focus, have ability to learn how to communicate with others, and also skill to live his own daily life..moreover he is healthy..previously before the diet, he has constipation, only once a week to poo, now he poo everyday, he is also picky eater, now he ate every single meal i offer him..so if you think this diet is not okay, it is dangerous, so let it be..believe what you want to believe..cause i want to believe what i want to believe, cause i see how it change my son..so he can survive in society, cause we cant change our society one night..it tooks time, and i am a mom who are fighting with time i am in rush for my children..and after doing the diet, i see hope..i dont know who you are, so i just think that we are having different options..bye
@@ignafahin8015 Believe idd.(Lol). I'm listening to science. You'r not gonna cure him of autism with it, that's my point. In the best case your make his guts better, his life easier, and finaly him happier and your life easier. but you'r not cured him from his autism.
I just watched your video and I want to say thank you so much! I just wanted to cry! Finally someone who understands how hard it is! Finally another mom who is talking about this! My son was just diagnosed a week ago and i'm at a loss of what to do - especially when it comes to eating. Your videos are an inspiration and eye opening for me! I cant get my son to eat hardly anything! I'm worn out trying to get him to just eat one thing healthy every day.
I saw your comment and just wanted to cheer you on! As long as some food is getting in, it's okay. I hope you can find him some favorites soon. My son (also on the spectrum) will sometimes drink fruit smoothies with spinach since we named it Green Monster :)
@@chettajohnson5261 thank you so much! 🙏
I didn’t breastfeed my first child too I didn’t know how to and nobody told me how much breastmilk Is important for your baby it’s basically food/medicine/vaccine everything combined and my first child is also autistic he’s 4 now . I’ve switched to camels milk and omg let me tell you it’s a game changer my child is like a totally different child, he’s a lot more calmer, responds to his name, makes eye contact and his speech has gotten better aswell, he used to look really pale now he looks alot more better I defo would recommend camel milk. It’s basically a cure for autism .
How often and how much do you give your son? If he stops drinking the camels milk does his behavior increase? Thanks for your time!
@@an_overlooked_comment_from Hey! I give him 4 ounces a day and no Autism will not go away however it will improve his/her symptoms but please do your research before you purchase camel milk is really expensive and may not work for everyone. I know of this because in the middle east, it has been used for centuries to treat premature babies and we believe it's the only milk in the world that is close to breastmilk and also scienctifaccly approved as well. The only downside is camel milk has less fat so you will have to make up for it with fatty food so your child isn't losing any weight.
Can you please tell me where you get camel milk
2 of my 5 kids are severe autistic (both diagnosed before the age of 2). They are all about structure in food. I recently stopped gluten and milk products for them both. It definitely has effect in my daughter's body. She has the whole year constipation and since removing it, she finds it easier to poo. She eats a better diet now. I slowly changed it. Step for step. She is 11 and my son is 12. They both can not speak. They could speak both until 14-18 months and they both stopped talking at the same age. I love them. I learn you so much. Autism is something they choose for when they were born, they need to learn something in this lifetime and the people around them aswell. What did you learn especially from your child? But diet is everything I can agree with that. Much love. X
My son is 2 and I’m new with autism and I didn’t know diary was bad for
Him but mi e only want milk bananas yogurt pastas that’s it 😭
@@mariposa9617 the younger the child it should be easier to change his habits, as he won't remember after a month he ever had milk. There's coconut milk, rice milk, you can try mix it to get him used to anothertaste, also coconut yoghurt and gluten free pasta. When gut bacteria get better he should eat more things. He's still very young so he can develop very well
My child is 4 1/2 yrs old. He suffering with severe constipation.. How to solve this?
I have tried this route with very few success. But you really motivate me now as I realise I might have expected too much too quick
its hard and take perservernace. it doesnt always work for children either. but the healthiest body you can have will give you the healthiest brain you can have so always worth a shot x
My 2 year old son is autistic and I am having a hard time getting him to eat different foods. He will only eat pizza , hamburgers,waffles , chips , apples water and juice. I will definitely check out your other video .
This must be the autistic menu for sure… it’s the same menu for my nephew. If you introduce New food you need to give it every week or it will be put in the “I don’t like it” pile and they will refuse to eat. I was able to add hamburger to the menu. 🙄. It did take some time and lots of energy
Thank you for sharing 💕 it helps alot. Godbless you and your family.
Thanks for sharing madam. People are really suffering due to lack of knowledge especially here in Africa
We had our daughter on GF/CF shortly after she was diagnosed. Later, we did the Specific Carbohydrate Diet... I rarely left the kitchen with that one.
Now I am attempting, with some recent success, to get her into Keto. Your message of "if at first you don't succeed..." rings true and is a comfort to all parents of special needs children.
Hang in there guys!
Thanks for sharing. You are helping our family. God Bless you and the little fella. We have a three year old just joined the group.
Omg ur son has beautiful eyes and cute hair. He looks very well taken care of.
6:36 I heard on a Ted Talk about conditioning your brain for study that you can bring a lamp when you study, and only light it when you study. So on the test your brain goes into study mode.
Should be transitional(?) to eating. When eating at home to bring with some kind of on/off switched toy or rather, for when eating. And he just takes it with him when you go eat someplace else.
Just a suggestion. Might be worth a try.
Maybe you've already solved it. Twas over a year ago, this video.
Hi, my 7 yo son was diagnosed yesterday. This has been so useful, I have always noticed how when my son has lots of bread especially in the morning he seems more out of control. I will definitely be considering gluten free. He has always had issues with dairy and I was referred to a dietician when he was a baby. The dietician warned me against using goats milk because it's still mammal milk and has a very high percentage chance of having issues with that aswell. We give him oat, rice, cashew or almond whatever is on offer 😁
Have you read the Nemechek Protocol written by Dr Nemechek about the diet and how to “cure” (it’s more like relieve autistic traits and symptoms) autism? It’s great and it helped so many families
Astrid Bellido I haven’t heard of this thank you for sharing x
Thank you so much for this information. Our four year old is autistic and we are looking into changing her diet.
Another great informative video. Qiyam (Key-yahm) my great grandson who I wrote about in one of your other videos weaned himself off of milk. We found out he’d been allergic to it . He continually had a rash on his cheeks and chin. We thought it was a drool rash, but once he quit milk it went away. His diet consists of pediasure through his g-tube and a purée pouch of strawberry, peach and pear or broccoli, apple and pear for breakfast along with his formula. He may never eat regular food because of his texture sensitivity.
I’m thrilled to find your channel and I’m excited to help my son improve with his verbal and social communication skills. It’s hard to find genuine information on autism, especially from UK based families. Thank you so much!
I think in UK has mode foctors that understand autism… my son dictor base kn Hongkong and from UK.
you are a great mom, i would wanted to know everything when i was young with my little children and daughter with autism. (she is 30 now). You can use essential oils to help your child with all his symptoms fram anxiety and so on, it''s a great help here with all kind of things. Pick a very good brand.
What’s a good brand you like?
What will they eat?? My daughter is sooooo picky, despite the fact that I started her on fruits, veggies, etc. My daughter didn't have gut issues, until more recently. My daughter loves milk, chips, pasta and tomatoes soup. And oatmeal and cereal. I sneak broccoli into some things, like teriyaki bowls. She'll eat it that way. But not most other ways. Eggs, they'll eat eggs. But I want to encourage her to eat more foods. Hard though because they are sensitive to texture.
THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH !!!! This video and these information are so important and you won't believe how comforting for me. It is so very hard on us parents with this issue , that only someone who is in it knows the pain and stress you go through for the love our little ones. Love all your videos. Keep being the wonderful mom you are , 😊. ❤❤❤❤❤
Goat milk is amazing!!! That worked for my 4 yr old as well! No more constipation after making the switch
GBLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY YOU A STRONG GREAT WOMAN 🙏🏼✊🏼💪🏼 my son is Austistic its a strong god willing battle 🙏🏼
Your are very good mother.
Thank you so much
Hey!! Just one thing I had learned in my life... I m from India and we eat wheat everyday... As per to ayurveda, don't drink water after having any meal.. especially anything contain gluten n carbs.... It will stop the process of digestion and the food get stuck in the walls of intestine... Only after 50 mins of having one should drink water or other liquid...may be this can help in making digestion n gut strong
This is not true! According to Michael F. Picco, M.D. (MEDICAL DOCTOR)
"There's no concern that water will dilute the digestive juices or interfere with digestion. In fact, drinking water during or after a meal actually aids digestion.
Water is essential for good health. Water and other liquids help break down food so that your body can absorb the nutrients. Water also softens stool, which helps prevent constipation"
Please trust medical doctors! I'm begging all of you... As a person with autism, I trust my doctor.
Something many people have noticed about milk is that it depends on the cow race. There are 2 kinds . Kasein A1 from ex Holstein cows is highly inflammatory and milk from ex Jersey cows is A2 and good eaven for some allergics. Mayby something to look in to ☺🐮⚘
Breed* not race. 😊
@@Rachel0731 Thanks ,, 👍⚘
I learned some medical schools offer no nutritional training, and those that do, medical students receive less than 24 hours and it’s often based on meat-dairy-egg industry-funded misinformation. There is a group of doctors, though, who are trying to change that: The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, pcrm.org - and their website may have some information about nutrition and autism.
Re animal milk: humans are built to be weened from mammalian milk. We are the only species that continues to drink animal milk beyond natural weening as well as the only animal that drinks milk from another species. The casein (milk protein) and mammalian estrogen are among things our human bodies shouldn’t be ingesting and are causing a host of health problems (lactose intolerance is the norm, for example, for most of the world and a genetic mutation for those who can tolerate it). Anyway, all that to encourage you (and everyone) to switch to plant milk. Some studies are investigating if cow milk is associated with autism. There’s not enough info to be definitive, though.
Whole-food, plant-based eating also helps the gut microbiom along with the probiotics.
Sorry so long... I hope some of this helps you like it has helped us. ❤️
Thank you for sharing I have heard that and it’s very sad I think if we managed to sort out the whole diet thing they will be a lot less diseases and cancer is around today. X
Sugars,carbs limiting shown to help
This information may help a few families but it is out of date !! If you are serious about helping an autistic child , please look into how to use ketogenic diet or carnivore eating . Ketogenic eating is common sense , carnivore eating is also good sense . Lots of parents are learning they can really help to improve their child’s future! God bless your efforts!.😊
Omg it is like I'm looking into a mirror ;). My son never had normal poop and at 3 we removed gluten, milk and soy and he became a different kid, started speaking, sleeping better, no temper tantrums and his autism just became so much manageable for him...
He won't eat food that me or his dad didn't cook either and has very specific foods he eats but something is better than nothing!
Doctors tell us the same when we say diet did a lot, even family don't get it ;(
doctors only get 6 weeks training in nutrition and i really wish they have more of it. diet makes a huge difference for us all, why is it any different for our children on the spectrum ! x
Plz share ur gf cf diet plan
God bless you! ... your focus and patience is amazing!
This is very encouraging & enlighten.
感谢上帝让我看到你的视频，谢谢你的分享，祝福你和你的孩子们健康快乐！我英文不好，但是我会努力学习，看你更多的视频。
Im actually here for myself lol thank you for talking about all of this. I never knew my gut problems were common for others with autism too. I just thought myself unlucky with health. I did feel better when i avoided gluten. Your video makes me feel i should go back :) thank you again.
Ah that’s awesome / yes gluten free will help and a probiotic might help you also x
@@ComingHometoAutism only reason i stopped was because i got pregnant and i wasn't having reactions too it anymore. For others curious gluten-free diet also made me go from 200+ to 135 lbs. Well heres to me trying to lose that baby weight i gained :)
And thanks for the added advice. You really do comment back to people right away. Im very impressed and didn't expect you too. Buy im happy you did.
I do try my best 🥰 thanks for taking time to comment. X

God bless your heart.❤
I am also sensitive to certain foods as a person with high functioning Aspergers because I don’t like certain textures.
You are such a strong mother , I respect you for you hard work and patience as such young mother at the time when you had autistic child. Now, I know very well what you went through because my sisters is going through exactly same things, feeding problem, her relationship with her husband, she doesn’t trust and let anyone else to look after her autistic child , she thinks no body can understand her child as she does. This has affected everyone”s life in the family even mine , I feel sorry for my sister seeing her suffering so much , I try to help as much as I can but Such hard a job.
I just think as parents or any other family member you have to accept that life will always be challenging with autistic child in the family , you have to be patient and strong to deal with it and be prepared for any challenge while they grow older.
sending you a big hug x
I,m so glad to watch your video. I need to change my son diet now. Thanks a lot❤
Get your children allergy and food sensitivity tests. We found out my son was allergic to gluten, soy, dairy, meats, sunflower, peanut butter, vinegar, and so many more random things. Your child can be sensitive to so many things, just removing dairy and gluten is not enough. You must remove all sensitivities and allergies. My sons meltdowns became wayyyy less frequent and he no longer self harms
What a beautiful and loving mum you are, what an amazing job you're doing.
If she was a good mom, she would have eaten right prior to and during pregnancy.
I've got a splash of autism as well, and I happen to be very good at reading body language (seems that way at least, but who's to say one's not deceived by the hope of understanding what's going on around us). And I know this is a bit orthodox and maybe even a bit rude to point out, but it's all for facilitating communication. So here goes:
The petting on 8:06 starts of fine and dandy. Your boy raises his head in hope of the incoming pet, his sister nods 'yeah do it', he straightens his spine and raises his head when he's petted (as in pride and enjoyment), and he raises his hand to on top of the pad. And I'm not quite sure why, but it seems like you search for a response and you keep on petting him. He then lowers his hand from his pad in a stroking fashinon (I'm guessing as a hint that the petting should end (best case scenario would be 'in a similar stroking fashion'), but the petting goes on, so he jerks the hand away from the pad, while his sister signals to you 'put it down' with her eyes and head.
It's a small thing, but the small things build up one's whole world, right?
I often communicate through subliminal signals like this consciously, while most people unconsciously does. Not everyone notice this communication (I guess the stimuli is too low to trigger a conscious response), and I've learned to live with it and see the way other people function. But it's so nice when my communication is seen and my boundaries are respected. I get more relaxed.
I've looked about on a few videos during this writing and what I notice is that the subtle communications of autistic children are overlooked by their parents. It's quite easy for most people to see if they know what to look for. I think that understanding this way of communicating is a bit like understanding animals - You have to be engulfed in their world and see the world through their movements - A bit like a tiny sign language.
When I think about it sign language would actually be amazing to know for some autism people to know (as well as the people trying to get a read on them ofc ; )
Thanks for sharing I am about start gluten free diet for my son.. this week..

Can curd be a replacement of milk
Gosh we must be lucky. My son is 18 and was diagnosed at aged 2. He eats absolutely everything, especially loves veggies, drinks loads of water and poos at least once a day.
I think the water he drinks (2-3 large glasses with every meal plus water in between) has really helped. Plus, as I eat a vegan diet, he eats mostly vegan at home and I think this helps too, as meat is hard to digest.
Yikes. Meat is not hard to digest, fiber is (that’s why it doesn’t break down in the gut).
@@Rachel0731 I beg to differ, at least in our experience. Medically, I know that meat takes longer to digest, especially red meat, and soluble fibre is digested easily UNLESS you have gut problems, which is why many doctors put people that suffer from IBS on low fibre diets. And gut problems can often be triggered by a mis-shaped colon, or not eating enough veggies or drinking clean water. Which is why you see many people that eat the so-called Standard American Diet with large stomachs and abdomens,
@@amathesaxylady SAD is definitely bad and not what I’m advocating but if you look into GAPs diet or carnivore, many MDs state that meat is actually easier on the gut and the oxilates and anti nutrients in plants are extremely harmful to some. Not to mention high carb diets, full of soy or beans are extremely damaging. Dr. Natasha Campbell McBride, Dr. Shawn baker, Dr. ken Berry, Dr. Paul saladino are all excellent resources on this topic.
@@Rachel0731 these are the doctors that advocate the carnivore diet or extremely low carb keto-style diets. Those kind of diets, like any kind of diet really, are only truly good if you are eating whole, naturally unprocessed foods.
@@amathesaxylady yes, I agree, I’m not advocating any processed food. Just saying that I believe, along with many doctors, that a vegan diet can be very detrimental, especially to someone with any underlying issue.
What worked for my son was Almond milk, raw almonds, organic food, cabbage and fatty proteins (mutton).
Also this link: ua-cam.com/video/coYJF0DIt0Q/v-deo.html
My Son is 8 and will ONLY drink milk!!! So He started to become extremely overweight to the point where He couldn't run or play comfortably So I switched Him to Almond Milk and That went Great!!! And like I herd U mention in one of ur videos That once ur Son stopped drinking cow's milk He was able to think clearly! Well other than almond milk He ONLY EATS a cracker/cookie, It's like a animal cracker. But He will only eat the animal cracker at school He won't really eat them at home. He just drinks cup after cup Over and Over till He goes to bed. I sneak vitamins into His almond milk to help Him get the nutrition He needs. I also put ground up flax seed in His milk To help Him poo regularly cuz He is Allways backed up.
you can sneak some supplements and pro biotic in to his milk thats what i did with Dylan x
You can blend egg also
Poop on the walls 🤣🤣🤣🤣.. been there before 😐
j gee hahah it’s one of those things that only we under stand right x
I have my daughter that still does that. It is what!
I wish my symptoms would clear with just diet changes. That's not fair.
at what age Dylan started to speak words my son he is 3 years old still non verbal
He was 5 / 6 years old when he started to saying words that I understood x
@@ComingHometoAutism it's hard when even we Moms don't understand what the kids say 😭
MINIME is ALMOST 3 NOW
My daughter is 3 and she doesnt speak at all either she hums alot and its very frustrating
@@tiaralinzy3650 lease never give up ❤️💋💙☀️
Thank you for explain all hope dilan will get better with your care good luck and god bless you and him ❤😮😮😅
He's adorable... 💖
j gee 🥰 thank you x
Have you tried gaps diet after reading Natasha book ?
Sandya Sama yes we did ! It was life changing x
I even bought that book but I’m waiting for the collection date, I can’t wait to read it.
Thanks for the great video! I will try it out straight away
Ok well my child's autistic and is very particular about food so if I take out wheat and gluten foods she will starve to death lol. I'm glad it's worked for your little one but it's a no-no for me 😊
Same
Same !
Yea! And they will not eat. My nephew got down to skin and bones. Just drank juice and ate chips…
I know this is all about diet, but I have a friend who works in neurology and she told me about how kids with autism shouldn't have as much time on screens because of how it affects their brain (she went more into it than that of course). What is your experience with the amount of screen time and how it affects him? My nephew, who is on the spectrum, is on his tablet or watches tv a lot so I've mentioned it to my sister.
Yes less screen time and if it is screen time and he is young like 3 to 5 keep it on nursery songs .. numbers and abc .. a quiet space to learn they will love..
Try adding the bone broth to the minced meat...
Thank you. Nice video on what I was looking for.
The routine! He is so so so picky! Amd skinny because of it.
Thank you so much for talking about the poo and all that. I didn't realize how those could be connected... I'll ask the doc about it. So grateful for your openness, honsety.
I appreciate your vedio very helpful thank you so match . God bless you & your familly .👍👍👍
Hi. My son used to eat 3 organic plain yogurts daily and cheese. What do you suggest to switch to ? Thank you
I am autistic with high functioning Aspergers and I am not on any special diets and I am just fine.
Do you have a video on a food haul for your little man? Would love to see the products and what the packaging looks like for me to get at the store!!
Yesaira Michelle hey there sure I can do a video on that. Do you follow me on Instagram? I do sometimes post on there what I buy for him x
With my kids I discovered it wasnt the gluten it was the folic acid that made their autism worse. Nearly all wheat/grain based foods are artificially enriched with certain B vitamins (but all include folic acid). When we removed wheat/grain based foods they got better, then a specialist recommended we give them B-complex vitamins and specifically stated we should try the methylated B vitamins. So we did. Well, within a day or two they became completely mental. Raging, violent, their autism symptoms got worse, and they began regressing. We stopped the B vitamins and in a few days they got better. I decided to administer single B vitamins to see which was the culprit. And it was folic acid. It didnt matter if it was folic acid, folate, methylfolate, or follinic acid. All the forms of folic acid made them worse. Much much worse. Vitamin B12 also made them feel worse but not as bad as the folic acid did.
To test the theory out further I went on the hunt for non-enriched, unadulterated, pure organic whole wheat. Literally just pure whole wheat directly from field to stone-mill to burlap bag. (Which is not easy to find, since nearly 100% of all the flour out there is enriched). And I decided to make homemade bread with it (like our ancestors did) and see what effect it would have on them. I didnt know what to expect. I gave them the bread, waited, nothing. No issues. No changes, no digestive disruption, nothing. I knew then, it wasnt the gluten, it was the folic acid, and they shove folic acid into everything. Even in gluten-free foods and foods you would never imagine them putting it into. Anything grain based, anything carb-heavy, has external folic acid added to it. They literally add it to dairy products too, under the label the general name of "vitamins".
So if you have autistic children, try it. Remove all folic acid enriched foods and all all folic acid heavy foods and you'll see in a few days they will begin to change. Ours dramatically changed when folic acid was removed. But the problem is folic acid stays a long time in the body so if there is a folate overload in the body it takes a long time to flush, and there is no information available on how to encourage or speed up the elimination of it.
Do you have WiFi?
Do you give your children wireless devices to play with?
@@saintcolumbo8869 No we have no wifi, everything is ethernet hardwired. There are no wireless devices in the house.
@@Doofus171 ok. Still theyre sensitive to electro magnetic fields....
Phone masts outside...
Television. led lights. Anything that can connect to the internet wired or not... You don't have to be using these things to be exposured.theyre in the environment sending signals....
Research the electro magnetic spectrum and understand how you get a signal to your television house phone internet 4g 3g Bluetooth. Thank you
@@saintcolumbo8869 Yes, but its folic acid that impacts them. The higher the dose of folic acid, the worse it is. The total removal of folic acid (including naturally occurring high folate sources) and symptoms go away. Which is why the GAPS diet and other things like Keto or Carnivore diets work for autistics. People misjudged it as a gluten issue, when its actually a folic acid issue. For example, the GAPS diet coincidentally removes foods that are enriched with folic acid and those foods that are naturally high in folates.
Look I hear what youre saying..... but what causes autism in the first place???
Because they're sensitive to the radiation, that can impact on the food they eat by creating allergies that probably never would be there...
Studies actually say that if you're pregnant too much folic acid from the mother can impact on the child......
Food is not the problem.... food had become a problem because your child is exposuresd some how to too much radiation..
You might take folic acid away and it might calm your child down but his still autistic .....
This is not about food the radiation to the body is causing the food problem........research....dont take my word for it.....
His smile :)) so darling
Miss Vee he gets me every time x
your'e very lucky with your country. and i salute you
mom of authistic child with ADHD my angel thank you so much. We are very lucky here and I hope that my videos and my book can help people in countries where it’s not easy to access help. Us mums and dads can help our own children we just need to know how xox
I believe that it is proteing in milk and not sugar (lactose) that creat problem.
My grandson has heirchsrungs colon disease. Dairy foods aren't good for him since he gets constipated from it. Bananas aren't good for him with the colon disease. Hes autistic also
DONE SUBSCRIBING
MY daughter has autism too. It is really hard and challenging raising a child with autism. But God choose us to be their parents to love accept and protect them always.
Thank you lovely x
I'm placing this out there for Clinicians, Scientists, or anyone who is interested in our son's steady recovery from ASD.
Mid August 2020 our 3 year son was bitten by a Copperhead Snake and was rushed by Ambulance to a Hospital and given Antivenom. Since the incident he has been on a linear improvement in "All" of his symptoms. He improves everyday. He presence is even different.
Someone needs to study this for ASD victims.
I have 3 kids with autism one is 3 years non verbal and the two are 13 and 15 speak little just like 2 years old i want help please and i cant afford for biomedical Rx
Oh wow.
Oh wooowww, good to hear! Do you think it was the snake’s bite or the antivenom that did the trick?
many people with autsim have hypermobility (ehlers danlos) I can see the bend in the mothers elbow when she placed her hands on the kitchen table
Yes it’s very true actually a lot of sensory people have it. I’m
Looking in to it now. I’m very sensory and I’m hyper mobile x
@@ComingHometoAutism I think you are in uk. If you ever get challenged with eds diagnoses (assuming you have it) please see Dr Mittal who works under Dr hakim the best in uk for eds. I was diagnosed with anxiety for years despite being unable to work due to pain fatigue etc. Doctors here in Scotland clueless. Dr Mittal diagnosed me with eds within minutes and then my kids. Best of luck 🙂
Great information. Thank you.
Thank you x
