Re: Re: Screwing up (was Non-compounded meds and healing)

I think the next edition of the book should have a whole chapter devoted to screw-ups. Introducing advanced foods before you are ready, learning how to make yogurt, introducing too much nut flour or fruit, etc. This whole diet is such a learning and trial and error experience, as well as an individual adventure, that covering what can go wrong and how to deal with it may be as helpful as the basics. I'm a firm believer in the value learning from your mistakes - but I prefer to learn from everyone else's.HarveyCrohns 13 yearsSCD 9 monthsMed freeGaining weight and doing well despite still screwing up every now and thenHolly,I have Crohn's and have to take Dilantin which has illegals (sucrose,lactose, starch-wheat). I didn't have it compounded so have beengetting those illegals throughout my healing process.I don't know what the impact will be for you, but I was able toachieve remission after 2-1/2 years on the SCD which included plentyof screw ups along the way.So in my experience, it is possible to eventually heal even with thoseregular small doses of illegals.Cheers, StockerCD 1983SCD 1/2005Remission 8/2007http://eatingSCD.wordpress.comhttp://youtube.com/eatingSCD
