According to a study, that was publish in the Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology Nutrition, in august 2010, cow's-milk free diet could be an option treatment in childhood chronic constipation.
In that study, they found out that cow's-milk consumption was associated with constipation for more than 1/3 of the pediatric patients, and that elimating cow's-milk from the diet reduced the incidence of constipation by 39%.
So cutting, cow's-milk from the child diet, and replacing it with rice milk for example, could be a natural and easy treatment, for chronic constipation in children.
Well, I think Breast milk is still best for babies because it does not bring in constipation more so contain all the vitamins and minerals to boost immune system.
