Guest guest Posted July 4, 2006 Report Share Posted July 4, 2006 I have a 3 yr old just starting out on biomedical tx. Started Vit C while waiting for others to get in. Within last 2 weeks, he has been licking baby powder. I put baby cornstarch on him to prevent moisture since it's summer and his brothers as well. I put it on him and he licks remainder off of the floor or on his hand. I read somewhere this is a vitamin/min deficiency. Any suggestions?
