Guest guest Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Hi, My son, Doug , age now is 21 has had Chrons since 2001, had surgery, ileum and bottom of bowel removed in March of 2002. We began SCD as soon as surgery was over but I was lost often cried after I emptied out the cupbards and fridge of all illegal foods. I did educate myself and my son has never had a flare since the surgery. He went on to culinary school with a degree in that and an associatyes also. He " got smart " about this SCD diet and learning the trade he understands the chmistry of foods and why he has to stick with it. He has been doing excellently on SCD. We do all the substitutes, spag squash instead of real pasta but I am always looking for almost the real thing! In a local health foos store, Bonterra's in Northfield, NJ, they stock three items I was wondering about. I question if the beans used in the following products are legal and/ or have been soaked for the mandatory 24 hours beforing making product. Anyone know? I called company ut no response. also, anyone ever make their own pasta from almond flour or beans? * Eden Selected Mung Bean Pasta , wheat free bean starch * Papadini Hi Protein Lentil Bean Pasta * Food for Life Sprouted Grain Pasta Ezekial ( I was told by a friend that the sprouts aren't sproured enough.

True? > Elaine explained that the stems and tops of alfalfa sprouts are legal but not the end that looks like a tiny ball as that is where the starch is stored that the plant uses as food. There is not much flavor in those tops. As far as illegal mung bean sprouts not only are they illegal but one brand recently been recalled here in Canada twice because it was toxic (mold or something) Carol F.
