Brown Rice Legal??? Is this a rumor??

[Guest guest]

I just spoke to a Mom doing SCD and she said that brown rice is now

legal. Is that true. Boy it would make my life a lot easier since we

are dealing with nut allergies.

Thanks,

No........ it is not legal on SCD. SCD is completely grain free...... that

means ZERO. If this mom has heard something about brown rice being legal, she's

thinking about some other diet..... not SCD.

" she said that brown rice is now legal. Is that true. "

Rosie,

I'm sorry, but she is sorely misinformed.

RICE OF ANY SORT IS ILLEGAL.

It is possible that she was confused by the information that

certain enzymes with rice BRAN in them are okay for SCD.

This is true. Elaine approved the Houston Enzymes Rice bran

formulation after corresponding with Devin Houston on the make

up of the rice bran - which is actually an oil.

Rosie,

Brown rice is not and never will be legal on SCD. It is a STARCH, a

polysaccharide, and all such are illegal.

<wry grin> My husband, who loves his rice, would be happy if it were

legal because then I'd fix it for him again.

I have to sympathize with you about the nut allergy, but no, brown

rice is not legal.

Whoever that mom was who told you it is SCD-legal is either thinking

of a different diet than SCD, or she may have been confused by the

fact that Elaine has said rice bran is OK as a filler in certainly

supplements. (Myself, I try to avoid even that....)

Good luck and may your creativity in find ways to cope run rampant!
