Re: I need help starting SCD

[Guest guest]

Hi Pam,

> I started the SCD in the middle and learned that would not work. My 3

yr old son ASD is allergic to dairy. I need help with this. We are

going to start with the soup this weekend.

>

> Do you have to do the yoghurt to get the effect?.

No, you don't *have* to eat the yogurt or anything else that is legal

on the diet. Once the yogurt is tolerated many find that it boosts

teir healing. Others use legal probiotics, nut yogurt or non dairy

fermented foods (kimchi, sauerkraut etc.)

> How long should we do the soup?

The intro diet should be done for a maximium of 2-5 days. 4-5 days for

diarrhea, 2-3 days for everything else (constipation, etc.)

The dairy free intro version

The original intro (with dairy) is under the " beginners " link at

http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info/

and also in the book " Breaking the Vicious Cycle (BTVC) "

You can continue to eat the soup for as long as you like.

> What is a good suggestion for cooking fruits and veggies?

At the beginning all fruits and vegetables should be peeled and

cooked. As symptoms improve you should be able to try increasingly

more complex foods and some cooked with peels and eventually work up to

raw fruit and vegetables.

There are lots of great recipes for after the intro at
