Guest guest Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 my concern about Digest Gold is that it doesn't have the DPPIV that is important for our kids so you would need to buy it plus the Glutenease. I just stuck with Houston's as it works so well for us. Although I heard Enzymedica is working on a formula for ASD but I don't know when that will be out.

Guest guest Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 What is the DPPIV good for? My daughter isn't ASD, just gut damaged with yeast.

Guest guest Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 okay, I am brand new to the group as of today, and starting with the enzymes and probiotics, cost is defiantely a major factor for us. Witha 5 year old it has to be something she can eat ---so what is the houstons's you speak of --does it taste good, to be crushed or must it be swallowed. Any help with these items and being able to get them in her, woudl be greatly appreciated. Jen Re: Enzymedica(Digest or Kids Digest) Vs.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 Houston's does have chewables however, if she will not eat those, just open the capsules and hide the enzymes in things like juice boxes (squirt some out into a cup, mix it then syringe it back in), mix it with apple sauce...there are other ideas at www.enzymestuff.com...if<http://www.enzymestuff.com...if/> you call Houston's they will send you samples of everything before you buy. Good Luck. Carla Re: Enzymedica(Digest or Kids Digest) Vs.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 I use the powder. It gives you 200 doses in each container. I get mine from ourkidsasd.com with free shipping using " free " as the code. I just mix it in some pear juice/water. > > okay, I am brand new to the group as of today, and starting with the enzymes and probiotics, cost is defiantely a major factor for us.
