Very interesting and WOW on all your research Falguni!!

DS1 has had wheatbix from an early age (not sure exactly when) started on rice cereal and then progressed to wheatbix once he was needing a little more at breakfast time.

I must say i have never looked into wheatbix so throughly but in my ignorance (maybe/maybe not) believed i was giving him a healthy nutritious breakfast compared to other choices i could have made. On top of the wheatbix he also has puffed rice, LSA mix & apple/pear puree that i make each week. Scarey thought but would this be considered a high salt content breakfast? Once again considereing it's fruit picked from a tree?

The mention of eczema is an interesting one, DS1 does have patches on his arms & legs of 'dry skin' that i apply a perscribed cream to. I use soap free products but these will still flare up now and again. I wonder if it has anything to do with wheat??

To this day he has wheatbix every morning and he loves it. I have breifly researched the contents in food we eat and i try really hard to make the right decisions. I'd definately be interested to hear what others think and have found out from research and expereince.

Great thread Falguni
