Guest guest Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 Amy, Actually I do mix them with just enough juice or applesauce to mix them in- as little as possible- and serve it within 10 seconds of mixing. These are given between meals. What’s odd is that another batch I got from another source smells more like dry dog food when mixed (according to my son- and I can smell what he means). Definitely a different odor than the VS we were using for the past 2 months! Wonder if one set had something wrong? Anyway, thanks so much for the link- makes me feel a little better.

When the enzymes actually start breaking down the food, it gets that odor. My kids always took their powders in applesauce or other things I'd give them immediately after mixing. I know a lot of people use powder in cold juice and the kids drink it as they get to it, but for us, that method did seem to break down the juice too soon, and it did smell pretty well digested to me, in a matter of a few minutes. (My daughter wouldn't drink it that way either. Both of us have too much estrogen, therefore, a little too much of a sense of smell.) Is it possible for you to mix it in something that would allow you to give the enzymes in one or two bites of something, prior to the rest of the food?
