Look at the ingredient label, you’ll need a magnifer glass. If it has Carrageenan he Has IBD Irritable Bowel Disease not a sensitive stomach. Even Organic foods have it. Does he truly have a sensitive stomach or reacting to Carrageenan. Let it go on it will get worse. Stay away from KETO crap too, Gastro Patients don’t tolerate it.

Diarrhea is 1 of the symptoms, Acid Reflux too. Activa yogurt doesn’t have enough Probiotics to compensate for the Carrageenan in it. Look for the gummy Probiotics. Play with how many he will need. Child ones won’t be strong enough. I’ve use Probiotics for 2 decades no issues with them.

As a Adult I use 40 Billion multi Strain tablets. Normally I say stay away from adult Gummy’s as they are to strong for kids. You may need it, 1 gummy first, see what it does. Put it where he can’t get to it.

Most baby food has it, they thicken food with it. Just because it’s not a chemical doesn’t mean it won’t cause harm. Organic growers have wanted it out of food for some time,

Try eliminating as much dairy as possible. What triggered my research was the cheaper Heritage Farm Chicken had Salt on the label, I eat low sodium, but it had this strange word Carrageenan. I am a GASTRO/Heart patient and had Diarrhea for 3.5 months that turned into a SIBO infection. Small Bowel Intestinal Overgrowth.

THIS SOUNDS LIKE CARRAGEENAN IS GETTING MORE POTENT you can blame it on yeast but I’ll bet it is this toxic seaweed. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2022-03-toxin-producing-yeast-strains-gut-fuel.html THE IBD it causes extends to infants needing Nexium as it is in their formula. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2022-03-toxin-producing-yeast-strains-gut-fuel.html/ Colic could be treated, Stomach inflammation can’t.

My boys had sensitive guts too, it cleared up with dry powered skim milk and baby rice cereal. Youngest couldn’t have red food dyes.

That is what he used to take in powder I dont see that word Carrageenan anywhere..looked at multiple sites its not listed. See we honestly dont know what happened..he’s always been a constipated baby even going back to when he was very young he could go days without making a BM..about a month ago, he started teething real bad, started getting multiple teeth all at once and a few times he had diarrhea, so my sis took him to the doc and she said its from teething his mouth is very inflamed it will go away and a few days later it did he started back on the formula again(She found one in the house with a green label on it and gave it to him til it ran out) he ate normally all good..then she gave him the formula again, same one this one with the white label only had to give it once and BAM, he had diarrhea and sorry for the TMI but it was a greenish tint/practically black and the digestion just looked terrible so after days and days of that my sis had his stool tested, negative for blood thank God, no e coli, no salmonella, no giardia but positive for C Diff, so she thought maybe there was stool in the formula so we were thinking about paying a private lab here in LA we found to test just for any sign of fecal matter she has not done it yet..as of now she is giving him a full dose of powder Culterelle probiotic, he drinks rice dream, NO more formula, he eats rice, a little steak(He is iron deficient so he needs to start eating foods with iron), pasta, strawberries, raspberries, yogurt..he is a VERY picky kid so its hard to get food into him so we just dont know what happened, went from one extreme to this and we just dont want to give him the medication(The doc prescribed Vandomycin but we did not get it) for the supposed C Diff but the doc said if he does not have it it could make the situation worse so just thinking to leave him alone and eventually let him heal on his own dont know anymore

Forgot to mention that in late December 2021, he had corona, I doubt that months later it could cause an issue some sort of gastrointestinal problem but just wanted to mention it
