Guest guest Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 Hola everyone! Writing from Sevilla, Spain. I myself have UC and been on the SCD diet succesfully since '96 ( unfortunately had 2 bouts '98 & 2000). Yogurt never really settled well with me (never made me really ill, but on occasion not right) So I've been without it since about 2000.Also, more the fact that I burned out about 5 or 6 yougurt makers becasue the ones I had weren't designed for more than 12hr use a time. I also never tried with anything else other than milk. I now have discovered that goat milk is easier to digest! Thinking to try again. Question: Would it be OK to use regular comercial plain yogurt as a starter (as stated in SCD book -it's all that I have access to here) with the goat milk to make yogurt? If yes, is the amount of the starter the same as mentioned in the book? Gracias, F. Vargas fdivargas@... Tlf.: +34 616372832 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 Thank you Jody G.! Thanks for supplying info on where to get more info. I have known about both Sites mentioned, unfortunately the shipping involved is quite costly. It's basically not possible within my economical means to get this product over seas. Unfortunately many brand names just label their yogurt: live cultures I didn't stop to think it could contain any bifidus strains. Perhaps this is why the yogurt never settle with me too well... I had always used DANONE as a starter. Is this acceptable? If not, is there anyone that can recommend a well known international brand to use as a starter? Also, can I use the cow milk yogurt as a starter with goat milk. Lastly. Which is best - pasteruized goat milk or unpasteruized? Heard different things about both....

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 F. , Elaine has a list of brands to use on her website: http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info Click on the yogurt link. We also have a Spanish language SCD list. Perhaps someone or more than one person on that list would be interested in splitting the cost of the shipping. If you divided the shipping cost between a few people, it might be more economically feasible. Jody mom to -7 and -9 SCD 1/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 >>>S. Thermophilus and L. Bulgaricus for certain. It can also have L. Acidophilus or L. Casei but not bifidus strains. This is the first I'm hearing of this. Are the good strains of bacteria listed somewhere on the site or in the book? Why are some not good?

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 , Yes, the strains are listed in the book and on Elaine's website. To read why Elaine did not allow the other strains, just type in " Bifidus " into the search engine on her website. http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info Jody mom to -7 and -9 SCD 1/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
