I just noticed you are located in Canada...Hi Rita,<br /><br />I just noticed you are located in Canada so it's possible that the Canadian reps don't get the GMO question as often there but I get it all the time here in the US (Washington DC). <br /><br />The product does contain soy oil but no soy proteins, which are generally the source of a soy protein allergy. The product has over 47 clinical studies to prove its hypoallergenicity so it is very rare that a child would react to any ingredient in Neocate. As far as I know, Neocate is as hypoallergenic as they come. <br /><br />Since I have been getting the GMO question so often lately, I think it would be good to specify this on the label as well as on the company website. I'm going to pass that message along. Thanks for your feedback and feel free to email me if you ever have any more questions you need help with. My email address is mwest@shsna.com. <br /><br />Sincerely,<br /><br />MalloryMalloryhttp://www.neocate.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-905507494335864975.post-59152743443521078752009-04-14T16:50:00.000-05:002009-04-14T16:50:00.000-05:00Hey Mallory!

When we asked the company, their response to us was "nobody has ever asked that question before" and they asked us to send our question & concern in email form. Is there a way to ask the company to post a non-GMO label? Lastly, we noticed that soy oil is one of the refined vegetable oils... will this still be usable for my little guy who is highly allergic to soy? Hope this message finds you!! Thanks for reaching out!!Rita Vaagshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13327726667319168866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-905507494335864975.post-46212800640397220232009-04-14T12:05:00.000-05:002009-04-14T12:05:00.000-05:00Hi Rita,

I came across your post and actually I work for Nutricia (the makers of Neocate). Just in case this helps your situation at all, I just wanted to let you know that the corn source for Neocate is non-GMO. We get that question all the time so you are definitely not alone in wanting to ensure this. Hope this helps. If you have any questions, feel free to call our Nutrition Services department at 1-800-Neocate. <br />Sincerely,<br />MalloryMalloryhttp://nutricia-na.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-905507494335864975.post-1289029720768315842009-04-12T13:51:00.000-05:002009-04-12T13:51:00.000-05:00What a tough road you have all been enduring.

I am glad that the specialist called you as well to make ammends.<BR/><BR/>When something isn't working, it makes sense to me that you would consider anything that could help. So even though I don't have first hand experience with natural medicine, I can definitely respect and understand why you would search for anything that may help him.<BR/><BR/>Peace and God bless!<BR/>From your cousin,Cindynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-905507494335864975.post-54883782805205298132009-04-10T18:38:00.000-05:002009-04-10T18:38:00.000-05:00Dearest Rita,I applaud your strength and your taki...Dearest Rita,<BR/><BR/>I applaud your strength and your taking this allergist to task. I was very pleased to read that she'd come back to her senses and apologized. Forgiveness is the key to peace throughout this process. Good for you for being a great teacher in your time of distress.<BR/><BR/>The allergy test results are quite disconcerting... Although, I have to wonder how accurate they can be when his body is in a flight or fight hyper mode of coping with root cause(s) to its ailments... I'm so glad you're weighing in a number of educated perspectives in your decision making process.<BR/><BR/>What foods have you been found intolerant to? What are your new diet restrictions? I'll try to find some recipes that comply.<BR/><BR/>God Bless, Love & Prayers,<BR/>Diane. xoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
