2nd update: EnzymComplete DPP-IV

[Guest guest]

Last night I decided to challenge the diet again with a second spaghetti

dinner. (My boys had been counting down the days until we were going to

have spaghetti again, and woke up Wednesday morning proclaiming it was

spaghetti day!)

Once again I used 1/4 teaspoon Kirkman's EnzymComplete with DPP-IV in

addition to one Kirkman's Forte capsule. I'm not certain that the Forte

is necessary, but as I've explained before, we are going very slowly and

cautiously, given that the boys have been GFCF for 2 years now.

As before, I'm delighted to report that we saw absolutely no negative

behaviors, and no signs of IgE reactions either (red ears, cheeks,

hives, etc.) The boys had three helpings. No complaints about stomach

upset--which sometimes happens with one of the fellows.

No hyperactivity. Just two very happy kids.

They slept fine last night. No issues this morning going to school. I'll

be curious to learn how they did in class today. (They are in a typical

kindergarten class with some support; only a few people know about their

diagnosis.)

It stills seems too early to tell what positives/negatives may crop up,

but right now we're very encouraged that these enzymes will work for the

boys.
