andrew-scd and enzymes

[Guest guest]

Hi andrew,

I know you have a lot of knowledge about both enzymes and scd.

You said the other day that both bananas and honey have

complex carbs- and in theory should then be avoided if one

followed scd logic? Do you eat bananas and honey? How strict

are you in following scd logic? What is your diet like? We all

know how you feel about organs-LOL- but in terms of fruits,

grains, sweeteners, etc. Thanks!

scd is a diet for diarreha and considerably reduces the total

bacterial/yeast mass in the gut opening up metabolic gain from the

body not having to process the waste metabolites from the higher

population of bacteria/yeast in a non scd diet.

therefore is a question of degree.

as bananas ripen they convert complex to single sugars so by the time

they are very ripe the complex sugars are down to one percent.

however i am restricted in the amount of banana i can eat because it

contributes to phenol debt.

honey seems to vary considerably in the amount of complex sugars

depending on processing, age, storage temp and other variables. i

don't eat honey at all but those not processed with temps above 103F

seem better than others but the total sugar mass of even single

sugars in honey is too high and yeast promoting.

grains seem best removed but wheat may be the best tolerated. a lot

of the problem is with the soy flour in commerical wheat flour

products like store bought bread i feel. however i am not eating any

grains at the moment.

forget sweeteners.

you have to be careful not to overdo fruits on scd becuse its so much

less prepartion time just to use fruits and not cook veges. in

tasmania here there is a first class no additives thick cream(king

island cream ) which i use a LOT of ( several heaped dessert spoons

per serving) so its sorta fruit embedded in cream ;o) but it seems to

give extrodinary extended suagr metabolism as well as being anti yeast

with minimal ketogenicity.

the other very successful thing is whey powder mixed to a paste and

taking a very heaped teaspoon after breakfast and lunch being careful

to mix very thoroughly with syliva in the mouth to expose the lactose

in the whey to the amylase in the siliva......... about $1.30 us for

500 grams here so its very low cost.......... full of cysteine and

amino acids so builds muscle mass(really shapes up womens bodies if

thats of any interest...knocks of the fat and replaces it with lean

muscle)...but i think it really helps detox mercury et al.......

pecanbread AND EVEN ELAINE GOTTSCHALL SEEM LOCKED INTO CARBOHYDRATE

THINKING WITHOUT COMPLEX CARBS.. that is instead of throwing away all

the baking cook books they seem bent on recreating potatoes and

grains with nut flour 'goodies' when they should just toss the cook

book and let the new approach work its own way........deep frying is

out. nut flours are out. pure thick cream and whey are in. not eating

a meal or two when phenol debt gets too high is in.

Hi, I thought I would add my five cents worth to all of the below

as I have also been doing most of it,(definatly not enough SCD

emphasis at first ) It seemed SO hard to throw away all those

delicious,English fat & sugar saturated recipe books of old my mother

passed down,lol) The benefits have been enormous. I'm FREE from the

kitchen, lol it's so quick and easy to prepare.

My cognitive thinking,ability to cope with interaction with others,

and So many things have changed. Less emotional swings... The list

could go on and on.

SO, I cannot give enough praise to the good effect it has had on my

health. I'm sure all of you like me have suffered from just total

exhation at times when it has all got TOO much.

I never realized how much they were contributing to the dragged down

feeling I was always battleing. (Want to add here that it was also a

LOT of mercury toxicity,Lack of iron in my diet,(could't come at

liver lol)and need for SCD emphasis + Enzymes. Possible lead

poisoning from RAF bases during chilhood(They had a policy if it

doesn't move paint it gloss white or kahaki,lol)

I have always been TOO thin and am experiancing some gained muscle

tone and flesh which is great for my vanity )

The organic unhomoginized milk,King Island cream and the whey I'm

sure.

Enzymes not withstanding. (have got s book and get Devons

enzymes,Wouldn't be without them)

I don't have the problems I used to have with milk and bread

(bloated,dull feelings)Thanks to enzymes,SCD emphasis is probably

slightly differant to s as I have not had migraines since late

teens(only a few,but doozys)I have got Elaines book but confess to

not having read it all yet.

I was a bit tempted at first to replace sugar and honey with a lot

more fruit but have always been aware of the same type of reaction to

fruit in me that bread & milk gave me. (It was incredible the

withdrawl symtoms we experianced,Amber and Kim tantrums,moodyness and

Then terrible tiredness. Me a craving for sweetened tea to replace

chocolate lol.

I have NOT yet come to grips the yeast issue for Amber and cantell by

her MAJOR reaction to Candex,Origanoil and No fenol that we have a

LOT of work to do. (It amazes and depresses me how others don't

respect our efforts sometimes,Well meaning mums of little friends who

think I'm cruel or fanatical,X partner etc) I have even deciced to

Quarentine her just to stop the minor sabotages that really keep

putting back our efforts (

I have found that by eating more Offal,Red meat,Duck eggs,Cream,The

right vegies and suppliments of course sometimes leads to eating

less. So much protien to metabolize etc, But I an not losing weight

(good for skinny me ) and energy is FANTASTIC! Eileen.
