NOT a good idea.

Processed foods and added sugars should be avoided in an autism diet. Artificial flavorings and coloring agents, spices and seasonings can act as triggers to autistic behavior. In addition to these, foods to avoid with autism include those that contain gluten and casein. [Casein refers to milk protein found in milk and milk products like yogurt, butter, cheese, buttermilk and clarified butter].

Chocolates, sweets, cookies and baked foods, fast foods, and highly refined carbohydrates are believed to be foods that cause autism. They are not well digested, and the undigested gluten and milk protein cause harmful effect on the brain cells.
Autism diet plan comprises naturally occurring fresh vegetables and fruits. Processed foods that are high in sodium and sugars are best avoided. Breakfast may include fresh fruit, fortified cereals, or rice dishes and lean meat like chicken or turkey slices. Lunch would mainly consist of a serving of meat, baked beans or legumes, vegetables, and foods consisting of omega-3-fatty oils like fish. Supper can be relatively light, and again include smaller servings of carbohydrates, proteins, and lean meat or fish. Snacks could be a handful of nuts or dried fruits. Seasonal fruits, eaten fresh, are also a good snack between meals, if required. The autism diet plan should mainly try to avoid foods that contain casein and gluten. It is considered that they are not digested well in the body, and the resulting opiate like proteins trigger autistic behavior in children.

Autism foods should be carefully selected in the diet menu of children so that they do not trigger any negative behavioral responses. Gluten is believed to remain in undigested form as opiate proteins, which have a detrimental effect on the nervous system. Gluten is present in wheat, rye, barley, oats, bran, and so on. Gluten free foods for autism that can be safely consumed include a diet consisting of bread or cereals made of rice, corn, arrow root, soy, millet, tapioca and potato. Foods to eat with autism ought to be rich in complex carbohydrates and proteins. Vitamins and minerals should also be obtained from the diet in addition to essential fatty acids. They can be had as supplements or obtained from fresh fruits and vegetables.

He does like skittles and starburst, but only gets them occasionally for holidays etc.

His diet is better than most kids on the spectrum that we know, but it's limited that's for sure.

Start with very low dose in soup or in the arroz con pollo. Better saturated with small amount of fat/oil....chicken nuggets are laden with chemicals, but if that's what he eats, try that.

What about gummies, fruit roll ups, cotton candy... Can infuse chicken rice n beans, fruit snacks. Cookies r the easiest...

Hats off to Cookie Hill for being a very dedicated person and great mother. You sound level headed in your search and I wish you two the best. Emulsifying the product in a coconut oil base would allow you to cook with it or add it after to meals and I'm kind of stumped too. Toothpaste? add a few drops to the toothbrush or make a mouthwash with tincture? Keep trying and keep us posted and if you need help from the IC community please reach out.

Hello Cookie, I was lucky to be an on-line friend of Medjool, what an awesome lady! I had a different handle back then, she is missed.

I would give your son a nice bud so he can play with it with his hands so he can see how nice the cannabis flowers smell and are, a nice bud on a stem that smells good, and that way he may make a positive association to the plant; I'd also roll and smoke next to him to see if it interests him...I did this with an ex-neighbor and his kid who has trisomia and now the kid loves it, even though he also doesn't understand how to smoke, so his dad blows the smoke on his face, the dad is not a smoker and doesn't inhale himself, last time I spoke with him over the phone, he said he transformed a gas-mask to fill it with smoke while his son wears it. The kid now understands the connection between the smoke and getting dosed.

Good luck!

It's up to you of course, but I wouldn't let one doctor's probably limited experience with cannabis keep you from trying the coconut oil/ cannabis concentrate applied on the skin.
Find a CBD rosin or water hash and heat it in the oven at 210 degrees for 20-30 minutes to decarboxylate it to make it more available. Mix one part decarb oil to four parts coco oil.
Apply a small amount at first ( less than .1 grams cannabis) during sleep if you think that is best. Somewhere where it won't be rubbed off for half an hour because it's mostly gone in 20 minutes.

Now that I think about it I'm not 100% sure you need to decarb CBD. It's very effective with Thc and thca though, so I am assuming it helps with CBD.
