Guest guest Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 Irene - I have been making butter out of cream for about a week thinking the same thing as you - no sugar + no carbs = yay! Gosh, but i thought we were supposed to be able to eat butter on this diet?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 I think the butter is OK. When you make butter out of cream I think most of the lactose is in the buttermilk that is leftover. I was making sour cream. I used to add yogurt culture to cream and let it sour. It was wonderful but probably has more lactose still left in it than is acceptable. I should think you are OK with the butter. And homemade butter, how wonderful!

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 Yeah, I don't do well on the extracts or stevia. But since the recipe calls for vanilla or almond extract, I wondered what people might use instead. I might try soaking a vanilla bean in water and trying that. I don't think I'd like it plain.

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 Well I am in trouble if that is true. I use vanilla extract in the spaghetti squash custard that I make for my son. The custard is the only way I can get butter into him. If the vanilla isn't safe, I wonder why it is in the fake cream recipe. I thought fake cream was supposed to be safe.

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 I am using both the vanilla and pumpkin pie spice for him. I could experiment a bit, but I am reluctant to change much because I am just so happy to find a fat that he will eat. The other option is to try using stevia. I am a bit concerned using stevia on a daily basis. I don't tolerate it at all so I have a mental block that it isn't really safe. And if I give him something really sweet that might cause him to want more sweets. Might be silly since he muscle tests fine to stevia.

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 Hi Irene, I know that Elaine Gotchall of SCD did not advocate for stevia as it's structure is similar to hormones - I haven't compared, but this could be part of your particular issue.

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 That is interesting. You could be right. I feel really awful when I eat it. Personally I can live without it. It is just finding things that my son will eat. So far I have opted to use things like vanilla for him instead.

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Hi Anita, I think I read about stevia in Breaking The Vicious Cycle by Elaine Gotchall. I haven't compared structures, but you could probably find a structure on line and compare it to steroid hormones (there is a pretty good picture of them on Wikipedia) such as estrogen (which does promote Candida growth and may explain the female to male ratio). I am actually into researching sulfites at the moment due to my daughter's health issues and don't really have much time to look at stevia as I am also in the middle of a move out of province. I am not sure there is any real research, just a concern about the similarity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 OK that is good to know. BTW, in your recipe files, for the fake cream it states that it is good for Candida Diet.

The rule about lactose (sugar) in dairy is: The higher the butterfat content the lower the lactose, so whipping cream would be even better. Why don't you try Fake Cream or Egg Milk instead?

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 > > Why is cream from raw milk not allowed? Isn't it all fat and the > derivative of butter? Hi Ellen. No, cream is not all fat. And it is the other way around; butter is made from cream which is churned or whipped until it separates into two parts: 1) liquid, which is buttermilk, and 2) fats, which is the butter. Look up how to make butter and you'll understand better. Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cream contains lactose (sugar) which feeds candida. The rule about lactose is: the higher the butterfat content the lower the lactose, so that is why butter is okay and cream is not.
