Re: DD getting tired of taking enzymes

[Guest guest]

I started giving the " chocolate chips enzymes " as my son calls them 2

years ago for school lunch and told the teacher to give it to him

before the actual lunch, and I assummed for several months that that

was what she was doing. Then at the end of the school year she

mentioned how much he liked his " chocolate chips enzymes " as a

dessert, that is at the end of lunch. Well, they seemed to be

working anyway and since he can swallow pills the rest of the time he

probably still has it at the end of the lunch. (I am not sure about

this since this is a new school).

If she was on a specific diet before, that she no longer needs with

enzymes, you can give her the choice to be back on that diet, if you

want.

My kids have the choice of taking their supplements mixed into peanut

butter and honey, or swallowing capsules. Even my 4yo will swallow a

capsule if I get it wet and then push it to the back of her tongue.

Good luck.

I have always given them at the end of a meal and they seem to be

effective.

Thanks. I guess I should focus on the fact that she is getting them

at meal time even though it's not at the beginning she's still

getting them.

Perhaps getting them at the end of lunch is best...better than not at

all!
