Camel milk

NAS72739

Hi 

My son is nearly 2 and it's looking likely he may have Autism however its still too early to diagnose so I'm looking at all the potential ways I can help him. 

I have done some research and there has been a few studies of Camel milk being consumed in small doses daily that can help alleviate behavioural symptoms of Autism. Its not a cure. I was wondering if any parents have tried camel milk and seen any benefits. 

Thanks

  • As a mother, I might first suggest to over-analyse biological and environmental factors. As a parent we can inadvertently cause our children pain or cause sensory overload.

    What allergies does he have? Do you or his other (assuming you are) biological parent have any? My son used to have extreme meltdowns when I would give him chocolate. I found out soon after that children under three cannot really process what it does to their brain and sometimes causes excruciating pain. 

    Does he watch programmes? Are they slow paced with muted or B&W colours or are they BRIGHT AND LOUD AND FAST AND CHAOTIC. does he wear headphones and do you control the volume level at a decibel you barely find audible? What are the lights in his room? Are they LED and appear to hurt him or are they incandescent. What is the setting of the computer if he watches things on it or the colour setting on the tele. what is the house like? Is there noise in several rooms and a dog or is it relatively quiet- is it fun or is it peaceful. 
    what are his clothes made from? Are they polyesters or natural fibres. Are there chemical scented candles, air fresheners and cleaning products or do you use unscented (Ecover Zero) products. From my own experience, I get indigestion immediately from chemically created scents. It’s quite painful. 

    just some thoughts! You might have a 100% organic products, a very simple and basic style. He might not be overwhelmed with too many things or sensory overload and you might only read to him for entertainment. If so it might be worth looking into possible allergies. It appears many autistic individuals have them.
