my little one looks like she has Coeliacs and secondary lactose intolerance she cant even have my breast milk any more it makes her sick I was told to put her on Lactose free not soy we had to get some weight back on her even if it meant the end of our breastfeeding journy. I got to 9 months exlusive
Does anyone know if Bonsoy milk is fermented? Their website isn't working...
As a non-red meat eating family we supplement our diet with soy... but it's usually in the form of fermented products like tofu and tempeh. I don't believe all soy is evil... but I do believe it's used too frequently as a hidden additive. People do need to be aware.
Thanks Trill! I had a bit of a Google but all i could find was stuff relating to the seaweed debacle etc that has now been resolved. I give Bonsoy to my kids on a semi-regular basis... it's more expensive than other soy milks but it's non GM and if it's fermented that would also explain the higher cost. Plus it tastes way better than most soy milks. Not sure if i'd be giving it to a baby though. Like i said, we only have it a few times a month.
Wow I've only just seen this thread. DD1 has been on soy powder for about 8 months now, and switching to soy "milk" more recently. Any hint of lactose in her diet and she forms ulcers in her bowel that bleeds... so badly that there is more blood than urine in her nappy. She screams all day and night and is in terrible pain. She has a true intolerance to lactose and we have no alternative (and I don't feel in the slightest guilty ).
Ok ladies i need some help... DD2 has dairy allergies.. we have been told NOT to introdue say rice milk until AFTER 12mths BUT we should test her on SOY formula to see if she has a reaction to soy as this would be our alternative for cooking etc.
Where do i go from here, what formula can i use to test her reaction and is it going to be safe to continue to give her some form of soy products in baking or as an alternative to milk on cereal.. help help help
Hmm this might also be something i will print out and take to me when i see her paed at her next allergy appt.. would that be wise... and ask him for alternatives???
