Re: Redness around mouth

[Guest guest]

Are you positive that absolutely no enzymes are touching the outside

of his mouth? I ask because my son is *super* sensitive to the

enzymes touching his lips or skin. We have to be very careful to

wipe his mouth after his enzymes. We always make sure he gets the

enzymes, then takes a big swallow of water or eats a big bite of

food immediately. I'm sure that if he licked his lips right after

the enzymes, we would be in trouble.

Once a bit of enzyme juice got on his shirt at his shoulder. When I

took his shirt off, he had " burns " on his skin right where the

enzymes hit his shirt.

Probiotics are really firming up my son's stools.
