Not unless the child: has Celiac Disease or is allergic to casein. See http://www.autismspeaks.org/what-autism/treatment/treatment-associated-medical-conditions/gi-disorders. Please seek referral to a Pediatric Gastroenterologist & nutritionist, as calorie & protein restriction can impact growth & health. Standards for GI evaluation in ASD:http://m.pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/125/Supplement_1/S19.full.pdf.
