No, it's not okay for newbies, since kefir on this diet is a very, very,

very advanced food. You could do the same with SCD homemade

yogurt, however, though I would separate them by a few more hours

to let the yogurt have full effect. But start the yogurt very slowly.

Hi Tonya and welcome.Kefir is considered an advanced food. SCD yogurt is a better bet until you've been on the diet for a while and some healing has taken place. Go to http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info/knowledge_base/kb/kefir.htm or http://tinyurl.com/85jld6 to see Elaine what said about kefir.And you should separate the yogurt from the antibiotic by about 3 hours or so.Best wishes,Kim H.husband, , CD 1999, SCD 2002To: BTVC-SCD Sent: Wednesday, January 14, 2009 11:31:07 AMSubject: QUESTION.............................

Hello,

I'm a newbie with a mile long list of questions. I hope someone on

here can answer at least a few!

1.) Can you drink kefir while taking antibiotics? I take my

antibiotic around 8:30 am and drink about 2 to 3 oz. of kefir around

7:00 pm. Does anyone on here know if that is Ok or not???

2.) Also, is there anyone on here that has had or does have

Diverticulitis? How much has the diet helped?

Looking forward to hearing from you......... ......... .........

Thanks, Tonya

Welcome to the list, Tonya!

1.) Can you drink kefir while

taking antibiotics? I take my antibiotic around 8:30 am and drink about 2

to 3 oz. of kefir around

7:00 pm. Does anyone on here know if that is Ok or not???

Kefir is not SCD legal -- or at least, it is a very advanced food and is

not suitable when you are beginning the diet. Are you only taking the

single dose of antibiotics per day? I usually take my probiotics midway

between doses.

>> 2.) Also, is there anyone on here that has had or does have

Diverticulitis? How much has the diet helped? <<

SCD is intended to help all manner of digestive issues, including

diverticulitis. I can't say that I did have it because my gut issues were

never formally diagnosed. My grandmother died of complications of

diverticulitis, though. Two weeks ago, I had a colonoscopy. No sign of

UC, Crohn's, or diverticulitis, or anything else. Fully normal.
