This post is trimmed and I can't use the S. Boulardii link, it's not working

for me. Could you tell me again why S. Boulardii is not SCD legal? Thanks.

> hello new member to group and have questions. First off, thanks for

being here! I put my 4 1/2 yr son , diagnosed with high functioning

autism (regressed) at 3 1/2 yrs., on the scdiet a week and a half ago. He

was recently found to have many allergies, he never had bm problems, only

the color (yellowish) had been a problem, and had a red anal ring and then

he did a 5 day run on s.boulardi and the color changed to brown and the red

anal ring was gone.(this was one week before starting diet) doctor said it

wasn't necessary for my son to go on scdiet, he felt my son was doing well

> with vit. supps., mb12, probiotics. But his diet was awful(ate lots of

dairy & carbs) and the allergies were enough for me.(dr. wanted me to do

rotation diet for six months).

> Anyway, started the scdiet and saw immediate improvements in all areas-

executive functioning, speech, imaginative play,etc....had diarrhea third

day once only, since then brown sandy pellet like bm's, only one a day.

Main concern is that his red anal ring has come back, i introduced the

who never ate meat or veggies is eating like a trooper, he asks " what else

can i eat " . Also I didn't start the diet slowly, he has been having raw

fruits since the start and i never pureed the cooked meat/veggies, also

introduced cultured butter/dry curd cottage within 5 days of diet.

***Questions...Could the red anal ring be a die off reaction? (I started

giving him the S.boulardi again, along with his flora plus, is this too much

probiotic with the

short, thanks for any help,
