Hello, I have been hearing problems myself. Are you from India? We are never notified where our patients are from and each nation has its own unique troubles. In India I have heard much disturbance from reported iron contamination in the noodles and a variety of foods. I am trying to learn more information about this as we speak.Excess iron in a child's food will cause brain problems, we just need to nail down with certainty which foods are the offending contaminated foods- if the talk is true.Indeed, if you find chunks of iron in any of your foods do not eat them.

In India you can contact the Indian Association of Dietitians or one of the local hospital Dietitians for more information on this. If you need more specific information and you cannot find it from the referrals I gave you, write back and tell me where you are from and I will give you a more specific referral to answer your question. Thank you for checking with HCM. Kathy Shattler, MS,RDN
