But there are somethings I do think it worth bringing to the attention of my readers. In yesterday’s Daily Telegraph blog section a rather strange article called “The scaremongering witchdoctors of Peta are trying to link autism and dairy products. There is no link“. The article is penned, or should I say pixeled, by a bloke called Damian Thompson who is the Editor of the Telegraph blog section.
The gist of the blog post, as I understand it and correct me if I am wrong, is that People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) is suggesting that their is some evidence for dairy products having a link with autism.
Now this is not a total new one on me (diet and autism, it is often said, are commented) but I can really tease out the argument from Thompson’s article. Which is why I am writing this post in the first place.
Does anyone have any more information of the subject?
For example have you found eliminating dairy products from you or a loved ones diet have had any impact upon the various ASD related behaviours.
I ask because I’m genuinely interested. Our son John is not big of milk and cheese. He likes the occasional cup of milk and has a cheese sandwich a few times a month. White bread of course!
Please share share your thoughts and experiences about dairy and autism in the comments section below.
Thanks in advance.
