Guest guest Posted September 18, 2005 Report Share Posted September 18, 2005 Questions 1) I want to use walnut, filbert, brazil, or pecan nut flour, not just almond because of sensitivity development. Where do I find them? Hi , I'm sorry I can't help you with all of your questions, but for the above, we grind our own in a vitamix (but on vacation once were forced to used an ordinary blender and it worked great). The key to grinding nuts, for us, is to keep the nuts in the freezer and, essentially, grind them while frozen. Also, we do small batches at a time. Answers to a lot of the below questions (regarding what's legal etc.) can be found on www.pecanbread.com Hopefully somebody else will have an idea about a supp for tics. I know that Latitudes Magazine (now online, don't have url handy but it shouldn't be hard to google them) writes a lot about natural approaches to tourettes and OCD, maybe there will be something helpful there, I hope. I imagine ticking must feel awful. Also, I think a recent discussion on Xylitol named it illegal (which is what I would have suspected.) But list moderators will have to verify that Anyway, welcome to SCD. Glad it's going well for you so far.

Guest guest Posted September 18, 2005 Report Share Posted September 18, 2005 , A great list of the legal/illegals plus a lot of other helpful information is found at this website: http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info/. I use my regular blender or food processor to grind nuts. Here is a pancake recipe you can use with different types of nuts (I have made it with almonds, cashews, and walnuts so for. I, too, rotate nuts because of my daughter's allergies and seizures.) Nut/Fruit Pancakes 3/4 cup ground nuts (grind almonds are other nuts in the blender until fine like flour) 2 eggs 1 mashed ripe banana or 1 chopped apple or ½ cup blueberries 1/2 tsp. baking soda 1/2 tsp honey 1 tsp. oil 1/8 tsp of cinnamon Water, almond milk, or fruit juice to thin, if necessary Mix all ingredients and drop by spoonfuls on non-stick, buttered, griddle.

We do not support GFCF, or generally advocate rotation diets although you are free to try rotation if you wish. Allergies can often diminish or disappear as healing takes place. the immune system is greatly influenced by digestive problems. Foods with a strong reaction should be abandoned. The enzymes are listed on the Pecanbread web site above. > > 7) What are the SCD legal enzymes, probiotics, teas, amino acids, > oils, etc? > > 8) Toren is vexed by bursts of severe full body motor ticking, facial > grimacing, and vocal ticking... he says he doesn't like it, it's > uncomfortable and awful.

These behaviors often improve after a time on SCD as the brain is affected by what goes on in th digestive sytsem. > > Thanks for the nut yogurt recipe and your help > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
