Proteins?

[Anonymous]

OK< so I know milk protein and soy protein, but what about the protein that’s in meat? Is that hard for some of these MSPI kids to digest?

My son is dealing with multiple protien intolerances-I think- and it seems that when he gets too much protein in his diet, which is from meat in his case, he just can’t handle it. He’s irritable, cranky, clingy and just darned discontent. It could also just be chicken. In the process of finding that out. We do grind it up for him.

Anyone else with any thoughts on this?

i know sometimes babies/kids who can’t have milk also can’t have beef. since it all comes from the same animal the proteins are similar.

We haven’t found that to be the case with Kaelyn, but I have heard of it being a problem for the same reason that Pooka mentioned.

oops I first posted & thought he was born in ’06…

um, the only way to tell for sure is to rule some out…

beef can be a problem…

usually turkey, especially free-range is ok (it’s allowed on the elimination diet)

eggs can be a problem…

how does he handle beans?

We haven’t tried beans… huh. Never really thought of them. What kind and how do you make them? What about gas from them?

Beef seems to be ok, but it’s the chicken I wonder about. Eggs actually seem fine as well, but his test results due this week may show differently. Turkey is good as well for him.

beans:

organic straight out of the can? garbanzo, kidney, black beans…

cook them & serve them with rice/grain?

in a stew?

jonah eats everything so he’d eat beans all of the above ways

Can you serve organic beans straight out of can? No heating/cooking, etc?
