changing nut flours-loose stools

[Guest guest]

Hi, My family has been on the diet 5 months and we found my son to

be extremely sensitive to salicylates and phenols. We than switched

from almond flour to pecan flour, which since I switched my kids and

I have had soft stools and not sure why. I feel as if we are

starting over, like the beginning of the diet. We have even taken

extra yogurt pills to try and eliminate this problem. Could this be

a problem when you switch flours? Thanks and God bless,

Kim,

Try hazelnut flour. If that does not work then try baking with

macademia nuts. If your child cannot tolerate these nuts,then do SCD

without any nuts until there is more gut healing.

You can also bake with beans by making your own bean flour. Since you

have been on the diet for 5 months,there is a chance your son might be

ready for bean baked goods.

All the best,Mimi

Hi Kim,

It might be the skins on the pecans. Chances are that the almonds were

blanched, and since the skins are still on the pecans they might be irritating.

The skins can be gas forming for some (more fiber in the skins). Are you able

to try a nut flour which is blanched (besides the almonds) to see if that makes

a difference?
