Hi Jan,

I am pretty sure that Kirkman's enzymes don't have rice bran in them.

My children do not tolerate rice bran but they do okay with enzymes

containing rice bran. Your child may not have this result however.

Some children have bad reactions to certain enzymes, so you would have

to try different ones and see if your child tolerates any of them.

I am not aware of a child " becoming " allergic to them, altho I

suppose it is possible, but your child may have an existing allergy to

one of the ingredients. If you are aware that your child has an

existing anaphylactic reaction to any ingredient, then I would

definitely recommend you NOT try that enzyme.
