constipation question and SCD bread?? Could it worsen

[Guest guest]

My son is a little constipated. We are entering day three and I presume

he will go later today, but he has been going every two days or so and

his BM are hard. He was sick over the holidays and lost some weight as

a result and now he is eating like crazy, but not going to the

bathroom. He doesn't seem real uncomfortable , but I can tell after

drinking his diluted orange juice, he wants to lay on his stomach. I

have been making his bread out of cashew nuts. Could this be a

constipating item?

He is getting TD-gluatthione which is very helpful to him, but I wonder

if that is also conrtibuting to his constipation.

What can I give him to help him out?

Thanks in advance!

Jule,

Three days into the diet is too soon for cashews. It's really too

soon for any nuts.

Is it possible for you to start with the intro diet and add new foods

slowly? That will yield the best results.
