Re: why scd may vastly improve sulphur processing

[Guest guest]

Dear andrew

In the " scd not hard. " email you had said that rice, potatoes, wheat, etc

should be removed. In that case what do you replace with ?? I already see

improvement with gfcf but my son's craving for cheese scares me. Whenever he

eats a

bite of cheese toast he keeps on asking for cheese. I suspect it may be yeast

problem. Do you know what is good anti yeast, anti parasite or anti bacterial

suppliment?

In one of your e-mails you suggested I give my son offal. Can you tell me

what that is, and where I get it from.

Sorry, but can you also tell me where I can get a good Magnesium Chelate and

calcium ascorbate.

Oh and by the way what is a good sugar replacement?

Thanks,

Seema

'Easy' is in the eye of the beholder - or the cook.

A big reason that although SCD is more restrictive up front than GFCF

but people trying both diets say 'SCD is easier and the food tastes

much better' is because SCDers doesn't try to mimick non-approved

foods. They just have recipes that make the most out of what *is*

permitted. While many GFCFers are trying to paste together tapioca

flour and other ingredients with xanthum gum and attempting to

convince their child it really is an oreo cookie, SCDers just give

all that up in. They are making the most of herbal chicken, nut flour

muffins, and roasted vegetables.

Interestingly, people doing Feingold also notice that food tastes

better without so much artificial stuff and pre-processed food (and I

noticed this as well). This makes food more satisfying too. The take-

home message for those doing GFCF and unhappy with the food may be to

look at recipes that don't seek to mimick gluten/casein foods...but

go for those that make the best of the foods you are eating.

its best not to think in terms of sugar substitues but not cater to

the 'need' for sweetness. a big mistake i notice on the scd board is

that the moms fry too much squash etc, honesty if i ate the way they

cook i would be ill.

again i don't think in terms of replacing the excluded foods with

anything but notice that fruits, offal(liver, brains, lung, pancreas,

kidneys) fre range eggs, marrow bone fat, fruits, pumpkin etc more

than provide enough variety. also i exclude homogenised milk and

drink good quality organic milk and cream when i can get it.

i do find adequate mineral supplementaion essential though, optizinc,

mag chelate etc are important. zinc and magnesium are esp important

with scd.

i don't think you can make sense of the cheese thing while you are

feeding the malign bacterial/yeast with the di and polysacarride

sugars from corn, potatoes etc.

betterlife.com or other online retailers are what i use, depends

where you are.

for offal again you just have to look around locally.

nrth american herb and spice organol i find good, and recently have

discovered that no fenol seems to work well as anti yeast on an

enpty stomach first thing in the morning , but candex is good for

this as well.

zinc is such a huge help with yeast, you do need to take managnese

occasionally with it though.

Well said andrew as it is difficult to break the norm! as trying to keep

some luxury for your child as mom i do like to see that twinkle in his eyes when

i bake cake for him

he laughs and dances around the house when aroma fills,so much eager! he

starts shouting i want cake.. i want cake!! ..it is hard and i understand what

mandi means. but if you think it is yeast you are feeding then yes! he has to go

without it my poor boy! and this is what my husband is telling me since ages

that iam more worried about cheese and stuff but cant face the fact that

sugar is the problem here! i know that he goes for things which is bad for him

and

cheese certainly makes him hyper yeast or not? i think ihave to start some

where with sugar and i am scared of v big die off!

I have varied his diet as being asian instead of wheat i replaced with rice??

i know now i have find something else! and curries and introduced meat in his

diet, also by introducing good healhy organic products and will suppliment

with good minerals soon!

cant thank you enough!

with warm regards
