    Silvia, I have an autistic daughter as well and I can't stress how vital adapting her diet has been in her treatment. Every single autistic child I have ever known or known of has improved with dietary changes. How old is your son? What are his dominant autistic traits? Does he have a language delay?

    There are many things you can do to help him Silvia, and many of them you won't be told about by your Dr.

    You can email me at . I will only have the email address posted for a short time, so copy it down if you like.

    The first thing I would say to you is to cut out his milk. Substitute with rice milk. Definitely not soy. If he notices the difference try and give half and half slowly increasing the quantity of rice milk in proportion to the cows milk. Many, many autistic kids have a problem with cows milk and improve dramatically from this alone.

    I wouldn't worry about when he eats - but the food he is eating is really no good for an autistic child.

    He's 22 months, he doesn't say a world at all, only if you can count "hmm" and "oh" or "ah" as a word, that's the only thing he can say.

    Ok my first mistake,we can't have cowmilk at home as DH and DD are allergic and I just don't like it and we have soy milk, first mistake.

    Something interesting, I know another autistic child but wow, I fell like a horrible mother by this, I wonder how this kid mom may be feeling, the boy only eats, french fries and Popcorn chicken from KFC and cow milk

    Anyways I'll email you, thanks for giving me your address
