Re: Re: Bits of food appearing in the poop. What should I do?

[Guest guest]

I strongly suspect my youngest son has issues with phenols/salicylates (sp?)

and avoided applesauce until I read here that applesauce made with golden

delicious apples don't have the phenols that the red delicious do. My kids

both tolerate it very well and it's very yummy. I also give my youngest the

welch's white grape juice instead of apple juice.
