Guest guest Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 Ooops. I mentioned xylitol as an afterthought when I said we had no yeast issues. Xylitol is not a yeast feeder, from what I remember (thus, I shouldn't be concerned about HNI chewables feeding yeast!). I see the way I threw that in made it look like xylitol might be a problem... sorry! Keep on brushing those teeth!
