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.
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 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.
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 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
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’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
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!
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...
@@Almay20i think he means like the sensitivity to surroundings. different areas i’ve travelled to my child responds better than other places. for my child specifically i’ve noticed about weather change can make their response different to the exact same scenario
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!
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!
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.
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 :)
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 ❤
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
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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!
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 .
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
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 ☺🐮⚘
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
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 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.
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..
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.
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 ; )
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.
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!.😊
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 , 😊. ❤❤❤❤❤
I am sorry to ask you but than what should i give him to eat ? He do not eat vegetables without roti(bread) . He is very picky... he dont like much of milk though.. what kind of milk can i use to replace cow milk ?
hey there, well its good he eat vegetables even if it is with roti! sounds yummy.. if he doesnt like milk it doesnt matter milk is not great for some people anyway. Does he drink water or juice? if oyu want to give him milk we used goats milk or oat milk. hope this helps a bit x
My kid drank lots of milk until he got really sick with a fever. We gave him pedialite and Gatorade, and now he won't touch milk. He gags, and I'm worried about him not getting enough calcium. He is also allergic to almost everything especially egg white.
What if my autistics son refuse to it anything other than bread, plain pasta, potatoes and his formula milk? Just by looking at something different he shakes as he wants to throw up.. any suggestion ?
what texture of food is best for a child with sensory issues? my four year old son wont eat anything thats a certain texture like he wont eat burgers or grilled chicken, he barely eats fried chicken, he spits out alot of food and will throw it, its not a taste issue its a texture issue so im not sure what to feed him, he wont eat veggies or fruits either the only fruit he will eat is bananas and maybe some peach..i need help on what to feed this kid! he seriously doesnt eat anything besides PBJ sandwiches and maybe some toaster strudels and chips thats his whole diet
I've been looking for answers for my niece, my brother always brings her around every weekend and we cannot get her to eat anything but french fries, chicken nuggets or totilla chips. Is there a particular way or recipe for your pasta and mince meat? I've made spagetti but she just threw that. I'd rather make her a bowl of pasta every week then watch her only eat fast food fries and chicken nuggets while avoid every thing else.
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.
My son has life-threatening allergies (diagnosed anaphylaxis) from dairy, egg, nut & sesame, so, he already is totally dairy-free & a terrible health freak! Hates junk food. But what do you think of CBD oil? Is the oil particularly good for autistic children’s health?
oh love thats hard.. I have heard nothing but good things for CBD oil . i am going to give it a try soon my self and ill let you know if i see any differences. sending you lots of love x
Doesn’t diet affect different people in different ways. So some children are very susceptible to diet issues. Others are not. I do have personal experience our problem is the quantity she’s eating not what’s she’s eating. I think you setting up this website is a wonderful thing, many people need a resource like this.
I’ve only heard good things about the CBD oil gummy bears or the oil. I’m going to try dylan on it and I’ll let you know how I get on. Apparently it’s really good for anxiety and OCD x
@beagle76 thank you. Yes you’re right diet does affect a lot of different people some families like us took their children of gluten wheat and dairy and saw a massive change others only small barely noticeable changes. But I truly do believe that a good diet helps our body and I’ll brain to Perform at its best. It’s one thing that also helped me feel more in control of being able to help Dylan because I felt totally helpless in the beginning x
My daughter is 31. My grandson has gluten allergies.i would love to give his diet to her. We had her tested for allergies but that came back neutral. Our experience as a family was different to yours . My wife was similar to you in a way did everything she could to make her life normal, Her problem hit very late nearly 4. My wife left it to me to research information. Her biggest problem is communicating & socialising. We have wonderful Cook books published by an expert in Autism.I will look them up & get a reference to you. She cooks a lot but her diet is not great. We were told diet was not a factor in Autism.It is a big problem for me, she is overweight. I am really happy to see your website. I am going to go through it all. By the way I am from Australia, we get pretty good support from the government here. You are a great mum , I am very impressed by what you are doing here.
i have heard about this "autism diet". i just dont know if we should try that out, as my son eats a lot of veggies and fruits and doesnt have any tummy issues caused bygrain or milk. his diet is pretty healthy but it contains gluten and dairy ( hes a cheese lover). would u stiöl rec. a change in diet?
I tried gluten wheat , sugar and dairy free diet. We saw massive change in my 2 year old. Things like eye contact and more calmness .but his bones and muscles became weaker . So am confused now what to do . And also his daycare said they can’t give him special diet if it is not recommend by a doctor. And when I asked his doctor about the diet she said that there is no much research that says this diet can help autistic people 🤦🏻♀️. I don’t know what to do .
He needs calcium and magnesium for his bones and muscles. Dairy products do help with this, try organic milk. If not, go for a supplement that has these minerals. Insha'allah he get better!
give him/her a mash, veggetables plus animal protein (meat/chiken/fish), well cooked of course, think about it more like it is a soup but blended.... I have a 3years old son I still feed him with mash becuase little children are not very good at eating meat...plus you can add grains like cheakpea or buckwheat
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
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.
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.....
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
@@ComingHometoAutism this is not very helpful if someone ask you a question and you try to sell them your book. If you wanna help others you tell and also tell them about your book that is available. Life is about giving not getting. Much love. Xx
@@irmabronder this message has hurt me more than you will ever know. Do you know everything I get from the book goes to National autistic Society. I stay up until three in the morning trying to reply to everyone’s messages that I get I get over 1000 of these a week plus e-mails plus Instagram messages. I spent all my time thinking about these messages and how I can help others constructively. I give everything I have to the point and detriment to my own health. So for someone to turn around and tell me that life is about giving I’m not getting is like stabbing me in the heart. I give absolutely EVERYTHING that I have to everyone else. I don’t earn a penny from any of this I do this because I want to help others. I’m crying writing this message and I am so upset. Because I’m sorry I did not reply to what I put in my mince and rice and led them to my book which has all the ingredients and more in means I don’t give? It’s also my website in the link below in the description box. I do appreciate every message that I get but send messages I have to just direct people to where they can find the information because I have thousands of messages to get through. Unlike some UA-camrs who don’t respond to every message I do and try respond to every single one.
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 😁
Thank you so much for your inspiring video. My son is three and he was diagnosed with autism at three. It’s really hard trying to get him to eat new food, which he actually used to eat but just stopped. I would just like to know which vitamins you give him and probiotics please and where you purchased it from because I looked it up and I’m not seeing the same one you showed in the video.
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?
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 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
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
GOD BLESS YOU YOU REALLY HELPED ME WITH MY GRANDSON EATING PROBLEMS
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
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
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
Its wonderful to be able to relate to such a warm honest family.
Melanie Bourke thank you so much xox

You’re an amazing mum and should be very very proud of yourself🥰❤️
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
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!
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
@@Almay20i think he means like the sensitivity to surroundings. different areas i’ve travelled to my child responds better than other places. for my child specifically i’ve noticed about weather change can make their response different to the exact same scenario
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!

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.
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 this video! Fingers crossed 🤞🏽 I’m going to try some of these changes!
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 :)

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
My Aspergers son improved out of sight when l cut casein out of his diet at age 10. Brilliant. 👍
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.
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
These videos are so informative. You’re such a positive Mummy! Can’t wait for next weeks episode 👍
Julie Madden thank you xox
Thank you so much for this information. Our four year old is autistic and we are looking into changing her diet.
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 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! 👏❤️
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.
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 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
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.
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.

@@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.
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.
Your are very good mother.
Thank you so much
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.

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
Do let me know if you need any help
What ways do you help with healing?
@rapunzelg1524 how do you help with healing autistic children ?
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 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
I,m so glad to watch your video. I need to change my son diet now. Thanks a lot❤

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..
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 :)

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 ; )
Can curd be a replacement of milk
Hi. My son used to eat 3 organic plain yogurts daily and cheese. What do you suggest to switch to ? Thank you
Goat milk is amazing!!! That worked for my 4 yr old as well! No more constipation after making the switch
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.
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!.😊
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 ❤️💋💙☀️
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
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 , 😊. ❤❤❤❤❤
I appreciate your vedio very helpful thank you so match . God bless you & your familly .👍👍👍
Hi question where can I find those pills I’ve been looking and I don’t know if they changed the bottle
I am sorry to ask you but than what should i give him to eat ? He do not eat vegetables without roti(bread) . He is very picky... he dont like much of milk though.. what kind of milk can i use to replace cow milk ?
hey there, well its good he eat vegetables even if it is with roti! sounds yummy.. if he doesnt like milk it doesnt matter milk is not great for some people anyway. Does he drink water or juice? if oyu want to give him milk we used goats milk or oat milk. hope this helps a bit x
I have aspergers and I eat normally like everyone else
My kid drank lots of milk until he got really sick with a fever. We gave him pedialite and Gatorade, and now he won't touch milk. He gags, and I'm worried about him not getting enough calcium. He is also allergic to almost everything especially egg white.
What if my autistics son refuse to it anything other than bread, plain pasta, potatoes and his formula milk? Just by looking at something different he shakes as he wants to throw up.. any suggestion ?
This is very encouraging & enlighten.
what texture of food is best for a child with sensory issues? my four year old son wont eat anything thats a certain texture like he wont eat burgers or grilled chicken, he barely eats fried chicken, he spits out alot of food and will throw it, its not a taste issue its a texture issue so im not sure what to feed him, he wont eat veggies or fruits either the only fruit he will eat is bananas and maybe some peach..i need help on what to feed this kid! he seriously doesnt eat anything besides PBJ sandwiches and maybe some toaster strudels and chips thats his whole diet
Can you share/link the multivitamin and probiotic you give him please?
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.
I've been looking for answers for my niece, my brother always brings her around every weekend and we cannot get her to eat anything but french fries, chicken nuggets or totilla chips. Is there a particular way or recipe for your pasta and mince meat? I've made spagetti but she just threw that. I'd rather make her a bowl of pasta every week then watch her only eat fast food fries and chicken nuggets while avoid every thing else.
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
Thank you so much
My son has life-threatening allergies (diagnosed anaphylaxis) from dairy, egg, nut & sesame, so, he already is totally dairy-free & a terrible health freak! Hates junk food. But what do you think of CBD oil? Is the oil particularly good for autistic children’s health?
oh love thats hard.. I have heard nothing but good things for CBD oil . i am going to give it a try soon my self and ill let you know if i see any differences. sending you lots of love x
Doesn’t diet affect different people in different ways. So some children are very susceptible to diet issues. Others are not. I do have personal experience our problem is the quantity she’s eating not what’s she’s eating. I think you setting up this website is a wonderful thing, many people need a resource like this.
I’ve only heard good things about the CBD oil gummy bears or the oil. I’m going to try dylan on it and I’ll let you know how I get on. Apparently it’s really good for anxiety and OCD x
@beagle76 thank you. Yes you’re right diet does affect a lot of different people some families like us took their children of gluten wheat and dairy and saw a massive change others only small barely noticeable changes. But I truly do believe that a good diet helps our body and I’ll brain to Perform at its best. It’s one thing that also helped me feel more in control of being able to help Dylan because I felt totally helpless in the beginning x
My daughter is 31. My grandson has gluten allergies.i would love to give his diet to her. We had her tested for allergies but that came back neutral. Our experience as a family was different to yours . My wife was similar to you in a way did everything she could to make her life normal, Her problem hit very late nearly 4. My wife left it to me to research information. Her biggest problem is communicating & socialising. We have wonderful Cook books published by an expert in Autism.I will look them up & get a reference to you. She cooks a lot but her diet is not great. We were told diet was not a factor in Autism.It is a big problem for me, she is overweight. I am really happy to see your website. I am going to go through it all. By the way I am from Australia, we get pretty good support from the government here. You are a great mum , I am very impressed by what you are doing here.
i have heard about this "autism diet". i just dont know if we should try that out, as my son eats a lot of veggies and fruits and doesnt have any tummy issues caused bygrain or milk. his diet is pretty healthy but it contains gluten and dairy ( hes a cheese lover). would u stiöl rec. a change in diet?
gluten is a big one for us once he came off that and he ate a clean diet he seemed happier in his self x
Thanks for sharing madam. People are really suffering due to lack of knowledge especially here in Africa
I tried gluten wheat , sugar and dairy free diet. We saw massive change in my 2 year old. Things like eye contact and more calmness .but his bones and muscles became weaker . So am confused now what to do . And also his daycare said they can’t give him special diet if it is not recommend by a doctor. And when I asked his doctor about the diet she said that there is no much research that says this diet can help autistic people 🤦🏻♀️. I don’t know what to do .
He needs calcium and magnesium for his bones and muscles. Dairy products do help with this, try organic milk. If not, go for a supplement that has these minerals. Insha'allah he get better!
give him/her a mash, veggetables plus animal protein (meat/chiken/fish), well cooked of course, think about it more like it is a soup but blended.... I have a 3years old son I still feed him with mash becuase little children are not very good at eating meat...plus you can add grains like cheakpea or buckwheat
Thanks for the great video! I will try it out straight away
God bless you! ... your focus and patience is amazing!
Thank you for explain all hope dilan will get better with your care good luck and god bless you and him ❤😮😮😅
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
My kid won’t eat anything but junk & processed foods 🙄 even when I introduce other foods, she doesn’t eat it. I’m at a loss
What was the name of the book she was talking about? I didn´t see it in the description box
Morning the books I recommend is The Gut psychology syndrome by Natasha Campbell Mcbride .
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
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.....
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
Thank you. Nice video on what I was looking for.
How do you cook the mince and rice, are there any spices or anything in there? :)
ah thank you i have the recipe in my book ;-) with my magic cookies too lots of hidden goodies in there x
@@ComingHometoAutism this is not very helpful if someone ask you a question and you try to sell them your book. If you wanna help others you tell and also tell them about your book that is available. Life is about giving not getting. Much love. Xx
@@irmabronder this message has hurt me more than you will ever know. Do you know everything I get from the book goes to National autistic Society. I stay up until three in the morning trying to reply to everyone’s messages that I get I get over 1000 of these a week plus e-mails plus Instagram messages. I spent all my time thinking about these messages and how I can help others constructively. I give everything I have to the point and detriment to my own health. So for someone to turn around and tell me that life is about giving I’m not getting is like stabbing me in the heart. I give absolutely EVERYTHING that I have to everyone else. I don’t earn a penny from any of this I do this because I want to help others. I’m crying writing this message and I am so upset. Because I’m sorry I did not reply to what I put in my mince and rice and led them to my book which has all the ingredients and more in means I don’t give? It’s also my website in the link below in the description box. I do appreciate every message that I get but send messages I have to just direct people to where they can find the information because I have thousands of messages to get through. Unlike some UA-camrs who don’t respond to every message I do and try respond to every single one.
@@ComingHometoAutism you are doing a great job, x
@@ComingHometoAutism I understand u 😒
I am also sensitive to certain foods as a person with high functioning Aspergers because I don’t like certain textures.
Try adding the bone broth to the minced meat...
Hi mommy what formula milk can you recommend for a 1 year old with special needs.
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 😁
I believe that it is proteing in milk and not sugar (lactose) that creat problem.
Thank you so much for your inspiring video. My son is three and he was diagnosed with autism at three. It’s really hard trying to get him to eat new food, which he actually used to eat but just stopped. I would just like to know which vitamins you give him and probiotics please and where you purchased it from because I looked it up and I’m not seeing the same one you showed in the video.
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。
I heard goat milk contains casein as well. A doctor recommended me to use camel milk…
