Guest guest Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 A praise report! My 4 year old (will be in Feb.) learned to swallow a capsule today! I basically just told him how and he did it and has been doing it all day. He was so excited, he said, " Mommy, now I don't have to open my enzymes anymore! " How many 4 year olds know what there is even such a word as " enzyme! " I am very pleased with the DigestGold by Enzymedica. My son is doing very well on them. I have a question though. My 16 month old needs to take them too, especially when we eat anything with eggs in it. I have been opening it and giving it to him in water, but he HATES it. What is a better solution? Also, is he too young for the enzymes? I am concerned because he is getting the egg in my breastmilk, but I don't really want to give him an enzmyme before he nurses! What can I do? I don't want to stop nursing or eating eggs myself. With the enzymes, we are tolerating them very well now. It's just, they seem to make my little one cranky or stopped up. The back of his arms are a little rashy too. Thanks for any info. The SCD is working well, and with the enzymes, we are being able to tolerate some more good legal stuff. I am thankful. They are expensive, but they are worth it. I got them at a discount on the web, which helped. God bless you all and have a blessed and merry Christmas!! Tina SCD with boys almost 9 months...

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 I give enzymes as well as the probiotics in legal juice - either pineapple or white grape and use a syringe. My 20 mo old has been doing this for several months and it must taste like juice because he loves it and doesn't give me any grief at all. I tried water once when we were out of juice and, well, no thanks was his answer. LOL I know juices are supposed to be diluted half and half. I don't do this when I give meds because I want them IN him, though you could try diluted first to see if it works. It's such a small amount I haven't worried about it in my case.
