Hi Deb,
I was wondering about the outcome of the testing you did. So do you see any improvements since adding the fermented foods and probiotics?
Relentless - John ate yogurt as well as fresh vegetables and fruit when he was neutropenic. We would really wash them and the yogurt was pasteurized.
Here's a link that talks about the value, or lack of value, of a neutropenic diet. The focus should be more on safe food handling practices.
