These are good sources for grain-free, starch-free, gluten-free, yeast and lactose free baked goods. Some contain advanced ingredients like nut pieces and dried fruits so use according to the stage of progress you are at. Children should not use nut pieces, peanut butter, seeds and dried fruits during the first months of the SCD diet. (Nuts are easier to digest when they have been ground up into nut flour or butter ) As well, some of these websites contain other ready made foods that we cannot vouch for although the companies declare they are suitable for SCD. We always like to caution that you use such items at your own risk as we cannot validate the ingredients personally.

Out of curiosity, why is Welch's grape juice legal when it says it is made from

concentrate? I thought the book said that all concentrates were illegal but

this is okay and there are some juice concentrates on digestivewellness.com that

are supposedly legal? Why are they legal but not other concentrates and how do

we know if it's legal or not? What kind of question do we need to ask the

company in order to find out? Not complaining, I'm genuinely curious. I wish I

had a better grasp of the science behind it all!
