SCD questions

[Guest guest]

I'm thinking about doing the SCD and would like ways to make it more

NT friendly-- it seems some people here are familiar with it, so maybe

if I briefly tell my story people can give me some suggestions and

also tell me if it seems appropriate to do SCD for our situation.

About a month ago my 3 month old exclusively breast-fed DD started

showing signs of a food allergy. This was right after I started

getting raw milk and consuming a lot more dairy than normal. After

doing some research, it sounds like I may have a leaky gut which would

mean that my body is not breaking down the dairy proteins properly,

which in turn causes my DD to have reactions. So I was looking at

doing the SCD, along with some digestive enzymes, to see if that

clears up DD's symptoms and and also a couple of things I've been

dealing with that may be leaky-gut related (acne, low blood sugar, and

persistant gas for no apparent reason).

So...how can I " improve " on SCD with NT? I'm planning on making

crispy nuts before making nut butter or flour, and also adding some

fermented veggies once I get to the raw veggie stage. I may also be

able to obtain some raw goat milk and make 24 hr yogurt--hopefully if

I can heal a little DD will be able to tolerate that.

I'm planning on doing the intro diet on www.pecanbread.com for 1 day

and then doing about a week with their stage 1 fruits and veggies,

then moving to stage 2. I think I am going to have to progress to

stage 3 pretty quickly because I am already having problems with

losing weight (right now I'm 119 lbs at 5'8 " ), and since I'm nursing,

I'm afraid of weight loss affecting my supply.

Hopefully this all makes sense, and any tips or advice is greatly

appreciated!
