Acidic Things

they might have reflux problem.. go bring kids to get endocsopy done. About the yeast infection...to use own towels..my sisters kids had to do that.. his body just can't fight off infections like the other kids can.. yeast infection could also spread from anything... take him to doctor.. i use to get infections and i would go to doctor and they would give me diflucan.. but, it only lasted for a short while before i got it again.. So, the problem was that i would be giving to my husband.. due to toilet seats.. baths... etc.. so he would have to take meds also..
also, have him take acidophollous vitamin pills or lots of yogurt.. I would speak to pediatrician first about this if u haven't already..

Hi S.,
It sounds like your son has a salicylate sensitivity. My daughter has the same thing. Salicylates are what make up aspirin but are also naturally occuring in foods, especially citrus. My daughter couldn't eat apples, lemon, oranges & tomato. We've been doing NAET allergy treatments and it seems to be helping. You can google lots of information and get a list of the foods at salicylatesensitivity.com. Also, check out feingold.org for some very useful info.
Good luck!

when i was breastfeeding my oldest son, he was so sensitive to acidic foods that if I ate too much, he would get a raging diaper rash. one big glass of orange or grapefruit juice was enough to do it. for a while, he would even get a light rash around his mouth if he ate tomato sauce, etc... he has outgrown it, thank goodness.
