Guest guest Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Hello,I have been on the SCD for four years and have still been bloated all that time. I'm trying to figure out why. I recently removed frozen packaged winter squash from my diet, and good lord did that help my head clear!! I also stopped eating peanut butter per the advice of my doctor. But I am still bloated. I am now suspicious of my supplements, I take many, but have been very very careful that they do not have illegal ingredients. I am now considering my multivitamin, I take Ultra Preventive X at the recommendation of my doctor. On inspection, however, it contains spirulina and chlorella, 100 mcg. each. It also sources its iodine and selenium from kelp, also illegal as far as I know. it also has 100 mg of inositol and 100 mcg of " sea vegetation " . So, I started poking around for a better one at a health food store, and couldn't find one. So I checked the web for SCD recommendations, and found only the FREEDA multivitamin recommended. However, it takes selenium from kelp, and has a base including inositol. What should I do? Thank you very much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 Hey , I have adrenal problems, so I need a lot of supplements to mitigate that. I take a lot separately though, maybe I don't need a multivitamin too. I'm not sure Thanks! Hi Is there a reason why you have to take multivitamins? I stopped taking those a long time ago. I just take my vitamins individually, after researching on the internet, so that my body gets what it needs. I take calcium/magnesium, vit. D, borage and primrose oil and silica. Also, if you can find celtic sea salt, it contains traces of 84 minerals, including iodine. Cheers, So, I started poking around for a better one at a health food> store, and couldn't find one.
