Hi there, I'm just wondering if anyone here knows much about HFCS intolerance, I'm guessing probably so!

 

My wife realized about three years ago that if she eats anything with HFCS in it she has a horrible reaction of itchy private parts. Depending on how much or what product she eats it can vary from a mild itch to an incredibly painful nearly unending itchiness. 

Just tonight I was giving our DD a bath and wondered if she might have the same problem. We had joked around that she had found her private parts awfully early (around 8-9 weeks!), but now I'm wondering if it's less about her exploring herself and more about itchiness and discomfort.  

 

Does HFCS that mom eats pass through to baby in her breast milk?  Is it possible to be allergic or intolerant of just HFCS, or would it be likely to be corn in general... We used to joke around before E was born that we would tell everyone that our kids were allergic to corn so that they wouldn't feed them junk food... but could that really be true??
