Parents would contact my office during the spring and summer reporting changes in their child’s symptoms or behavior. This led me to become increasingly interested in whether environmental exposures—including pesticides and insecticides—might be one factor worth considering. Neighbors may be spraying fertilizers and herbicides on their lawns, farmers may be spraying insecticides on their crops, and...]]></description><link>https://www.wellnessandnaturalhealth.com/post/why-some-children-with-autism-may-struggle-more-in-spring-and-summer</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6aaca21933c3c6638d212015</guid><pubDate>Fri, 18 Sep 2026 02:35:10 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/775d549dd58347c38334d3e9b0e75074.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>hinklemillie</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[My Historical Work With Camel Milk and Children With Autism]]></title><description><![CDATA[For many years, I worked with children with autism and their families, exploring nutrition, gut health, camel milk and other approaches based on each child's individual needs. Some of this work involved following a group of children over an extended period of time and documenting the changes that parents and families reported to me.
