Soy Update

Despite the doctor's advise to "go slow" with incorporating soy into Owen's diet, I gave him one serving size of soy each day. On Friday, I decided to stop giving him this much soy because he was irritated. He had mild skin irritation before the Tuesday challenge. After the challenge his face had increased redness around his eyes, and his eczema has increased. And his facial redness would spike at times, and I could not figure out what triggered the spikes. I stopped the soy, and I used a whole bunch of topical medicine, and now his skin looks good again. I am going to introduce soy more slowly this time, and see how he does.
