Guest guest Posted September 25, 2009 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 Hi Jodi- I don't know what else you have already included besides cross contamination, but of course a list of things like- sugars, soy, starches, corn, gluten, dairy. Basically you are wanting to know if there are any processes involved in the production of the food item that would introduce any of these things even in trace amounts. The other thing to consider would be if they are using any ingredients that come from another source- can they verify the purity of those ingredients as well? Diane D.

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2009 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 It's still really important to keep this going.Agreed. I don't think I'm experienced enough to deal with a lot of this, but anyone who is in charge of this feel free to delegate tasks to me. I'd be happy to help with whatever, I just don't know what to do! =) Pour Dieu, pour terre,Alyssa 15UC April 2008, diagnosed Sept 2008SCD June 2009 (restarted)No meds except for the stupid iron pill I have to take that is SO illegal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2009 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 Alyssa.. I love it that you are so open hearted and helpful- it's wonderful. I feel we need to establish this letterhead idea and what we want on it- then we can start delegating how to go about inquiring with companies. Are there other steps Marilyn that you think I am forgetting? One thing you could do is to keep track of all the various questions in different threads (If you're up for it) as sometimes it is hard referencing and going back to the original thread. You could keep a doc or txt file. It's a lot to ask to keep track.. so if it's too much, just bounce the task back to me. Or maybe we could figure out a team effort to keep track- always open to suggestions to make our lives easier. Jodi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2009 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 Hey Diane D, I think we need a recap to get this organized. If you have good wording for any ideas you would put on a letter shoot away!! This has to be a group effort- so we can address our concerns and update the list.

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2009 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 Alyssa.. We can work on wording as a group and when we agree on a finalized version with Marilyn's approval- will have some sign that it's finalized and you can copy/paste. How does that sound? Jodi > Will do. So when anyone posts a question, do you think you could go > ahead and put it in question form? That way I can be sure I'm writing > down exactly what needs to be asked..Starting now =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2009 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 That's a good point about possible legal ramifications of an SCD letterhead. I don't know the answer. But perhaps another approach would be simply to have a few sentences at the beginning with a very quick explanation of SCD (ha!) as to why we have such limited choices? Someone on here mentioned having a permanent SCD letterhead. What kinds of stuff would we want on that? I could design it or something. And I just looked it up on wikipedia and it said there are 'legal constraints' on items included in a letterhead. Obviously that's why we need the legal verification on an actual letterhead and not an email, but could we have a letterhead without it being all legal? Or would it just be a 'letterhead'?

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 , You mean legal ramifications to the SCD? I don't really understand.. I read Alyssa's comment differently. Jodi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 Marilyn.. Ohh ok I understand!! I understood something different- sometimes I wonder how things get warped in my mind?
