Re: are frozen fruits okay...and if so, i just made a great muffin!

[Guest guest]

Hi . I have been using frozen berries for all my cooking since

starting on SCD, because fresh berries go moldy very quickly, and I'm very

allergic to molds. With frozen berries, it is imperative to read the package

label, to be sure that no sugar has been added.

On weekends, my husband buys fresh berries at the farmer's market, but we

usually have to eat or freeze them within 1 day, for them to be safe for me

to eat.

I've made Raman Prasad's blueberry muffins several times. I don't have tins

of mini-muffin cups, so I use regular sized ones, but I still get excellent

results. I have only ever made these muffins with frozen wild (small)

blueberries, but I might follow your example and make them with frozen

raspberries.

If you're nuts, I don't want to think about what I am <grin>. I'm 17

months into the diet and I still can't eat berries (or nuts).

But I'm going forward none the less (two steps forward, one back) and

that's what counts. Patience! :-)

Sorry Eileen!!!! I am responding very well and very quickly to the

diet. I did not have and do not have UC, the big D or C when I

started. Within 5 days of starting the diet, I felt so much better. I

was also GFCF for 8 weeks prior to SCD and I'm taking tons of

supplements for intestinal healing from my doc.

I give you all sooooooooooooo much credit for sticking it out. This

is very difficult for me.

that's the million dollar question - why did the scopes show nothing

and I don't feel great ????? i am better since the l-tyrptophan and

glutamine so i'm guessing maybe the doc was right with hyper-

sensitive insides ???? or just feeling better???? - today i'm a bit

off - even off is not bad but fear of making it worse is extreme!!!!

i did try some beth's pumpkin pie tonight - hoping i'll be ok with it

so I can enjoy it thanksgiving night -it has double almond milk in it

1st time for me-so we shall see
