additional question: almond milk yogurt

[Guest guest]

I am also considering starting almond yogurt in place of goat yogurt for

my son. I see in the answer below that you can use the same amount of

almond yogurt as goat yogurt as long as the almond milk is not new. I've

had my son on almond flour, butter for nearly 3 months without any

obvious problems. Does almond milk basically have the same properties as

the other almond products as far as tolerance?

Thanks, Eileen (mom to , SCD 3 months)

No, there is less bacteria after only 8 hours. You should be able

to start with the same amount that you have been using with the goat

yogurt - as long as almond milk is not a new thing. If yes, just

start with a slightly smaller amount eg 1 teaspoon.
