[tri-med] Re: Toxic products?

This really interests me!  We give Natalia just Pedisure!  I have 
often asked if she needs anything else...and I get "All the nutrition 
is there!"

Are most of the g-tube kids taking extra nutrients besides the 
formula...and are you just on formula or do you add something else???
Looking for feedback thanks
