a2 milk.... Good, bad or no effect?????

shazfun

hi,

I have a 15yr old son who was diagnosed with aspergers and sensory processing disorder 18mths ago. I have spent a lot of time researching natural support for him rather than medication.... I have heard that there is positive results for ppl who switch to a2 milk, and would be interested in trying it with our son... we did try reducing dairy products but he cannot take the consistancy of soya milk products.....

we live in NI and can'tfind the a2 milk anywhere.... even tesco.... 

Have u any advice on either the benefits of a2 milk or where it can be purchased in NI????? 

xxxxxxxx

  • I'm dubious of any claims surrounding A2 milk and ASD. What hasn't received sufficient attention is whether any complications with ASD and milk is a result of the milk itself or a result of the processing of the milk. The majority of middle class British parents are determined to get their children onto semi-skimmed as soon as possible by following the advice of so called health professionals or from concerns about child obesity. Few of these parents realise that semi-skimmed milk is actually a processed food product that could be argued to be nutritionally imbalanced. The milk served in primary schools is now semi-skimmed as a result of legislation imposed by the previous government. I used to drink full fat milk at primary school without any problems. None of the children at my local AS support group has had any problems with milk but they overwhelmingly prefer to drink full fat.
