yeast flareups?

[Guest guest]

I just started the SCD diet a couple of days ago and I started to do

a round of ala (6 mg). After the first day, I started feeling awful

muscle/tendon pulling and my abdomen started to distend. Is this a

yeast reaction? I stopped the round because it was so uncomfortable.

any ideas?

I get the muscle and tendon pulling (without ALA). I think it has to

do with mercury moving and depositing.

If it is gas it could be from yeast or bacterial fermentation (or both)

I found that it took about 6 weeks on the SCD to get my dysbiosis

under control. What I read was a person should stay on the beginner

diet until all pain and diarrhea have stopped (I don't know if you

have those symptoms). I found that it takes quite a bit of reading to

find all the rules about the diet - like no seeds until so many months

after symptoms have subsided, and only cooked vegs and fruits at

first. And the on line support group wants a person to know

everything before they post. I couldn't follow another high volume

group anyway.

There are other things to consider like if you are sensitive to sulfur

foods you will have to find a substitute for milk based yogurt (almond

milk) and eggs (other protein source). If someone is sensitive to

cows mild protein they suggest starting with goat's milk yogurt. I go

on and on about the yogurt because it contains tons of probiotics and

I believe it is the reason my gut recovered so quickly.

If you want to talk more about the diet feel free to email me direct.
