I have used almond milk for a lot of things,but it doesn't seem to mix with

powder the way soy  milk does.I have terrible issues with processed food with

soy,but I have been mixing my meal replacement with Silk the past couple of no

problems.I don't have need a feeding tube,I just have severe GI inflammation and

food opiate issues.

I personally would never use a chemical medical food concoction, especially not

a soy based one. My daughter is fed through a feeding tube and docs prescribe

formulas for this, but I have chosen to use a vitamix blender to make the foods

she would be eating if she was orally fed into a liquid to go through her

feeding tube. She thrives on this. I take care to ensure that her foods taste

good and have complete nutrition because she does taste her foods. I don't use

milk, soy, corn, eggs or oranges for her, but otherwise use the food pyramid to

make her plan using hemp, almond, potato or rice milk instead of milk. Her

dietician is pleased with her nutrition. I will occasionally use her blend as a

smoothie for myself and it is quite yummy. You could choose the foods that

combat inflammation and infinitely change what doesn't work for you.

Metagenics makes a medical food called Ultra Clear Sustain. It is

specifically designed to heal the gut mucosa. It is a rice based protein

powder and actually tastes pretty good. I healed up IBS years ago drinking

this three times a day and had excellent energy and attended school during

that time. One of the healing ingredients is Jerusalem Artichoke powder.

They also carry Inflamex or something like that with turmeric which reduces

inflamation. I don't have experience with that one but could possibly help

with gut inflamation?

Hope this helps ,

I have a lot better time tolerating unprocessed soy than I do coconut.

,

I just discovered that " Soy Delicious " makes Coconut Milk that is the closest

thing to tasting like cows milk that I have come across. The brand name is

changed to " So Delicious. " I bought it at a Bloom grocery store in their health

food section.

If this is working for you, I think you should continue, but be careful about

developing an allergy to the soy milk. Maybe your inflammation will settle over

time and you can slowly reintroduce solid food. It can only be agood sign that

your autistic symptoms have subsided.

How would you do with homemade clear organic chicken broth or perhaps the SCD

raw goats milk yogurt?
