...this child with Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE). Nutritional Management: The child was started on an amino acid based formula, Neocate Infant.

Actually, the bleeding was getting worse. The gastroenterologist then suggested that Luke try Neocate Infant, a hypoallergenic, amino acid-based formula. Unlike other milk-based formulas, Neocate is 100% dairy-free and comprised of proteins broken down to their simplest form (amino acids) which babies like Luke, who are unable to digest whole...

Within 36 hours of starting on Neocate, Riley’s diarrhea stopped,...
