Guest guest Posted November 25, 2005 Report Share Posted November 25, 2005 > > Which teas are SCD legal? Which flavors do you recommend? > Avoid herbal teas as they can be laxative. peppermint and spearmint are the exception. I use weak Orange Pekoe and other conventional teas, always weak. No Rooibus (popular in South Africa) I belive green tea is legal. Carol F. Toronto, Celiac, SCD 5 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought peppermint tea in bags was OK as long as only peppermint was listed. Bagged tea is just fine... Jodi is just exceptionally sensitive and has had to take things to an even more stringent level than most of us. <g> I'd be doomed without my hot tea! — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Hi n, GAPS stand for " Gut and Psychology Syndrome " A book by Dr Natasha McBride in the UK. She based her GAPS protocol on the SCD with some tweaks and add ons. Some of these tweaks are illegal for us like using ferments early on in the diet, using a multi strain probiotic that contains illegal bacteria including bifidus and the filler non-GMO maltodextrin (as a prebiotic) She has an interesting intro protocol. On GAPS people are dairy free and candida trigger food free from the get go.. Usually about 6 months or so. Then one can intro these things. Keep in mind though NCM comes more from teh Neuro side of things.. so some of her " general suggestions " are lacking for IBD'ers ALTHOUGH I have seen that they modify some of the program for IBD'ers. It is a great book.. It answered many of my questions and she gives a Shout out to Elaine. Some of what she addresses are the ideas about gut dysbiosis, chronic ear issues.. how the gut and brain are connected.. the mechanism for ASD kids.. I loved the book. I also loved her book about heart disease and this whole cholesterol and fat being the devil is ridiculous! Jodi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
