Re: SCD kids with nut and egg allergies

[Guest guest]

I am by no means an SCD veteran, but what about coconut flour? I

have ordered a coconut cookbook in hopes of having baked goods for

my 16 month old. He doesn't have a nut or egg allergy that I'm

aware of, but it doesn't seem like good sense to introduce them to a

young child who already has leaky gut issues. Hopefully, someone

will have some good advice for us.

Hi a,

Unfortunately the kids both came up allergic to coconut as well. I

did find a source for cassava flour and water chestnut flour at

www.specialfoods.com today but boy, they are expensive! Our doctor

suggested these two flours, but she said beware that the Special

Foods Co. will try to get you to subscribe to its entire diet and

you'll end up spending an insane amount of money. I am probably

going to give a few of these flours a try because I am desperate for

baked goods for the kids. Might be another option for you to try.

Best wishes...

Hi ,

Sorry, but cassava (also known as yucca or manioc) is a starchy root

vegetable which is SCD illegal.

Although water chestnuts are legal they are not for use at the

beginning of the diet. They are fibrous and are more difficult to

digest.

What type of allergy testing was this? Are these anaphylactic

allergic reactions? If they are food sensitivities many have found

that food sensitivities tend to fade as the gut heals.

You may be able to make some vegetable flour. I have done this with

cooked carrots and squash.

I just want to make sure that everyone realizes that water chestnut

flour and cassava flour are NOT allowed on SCD.

For those with allergies to chicken eggs, sometimes duck eggs do not

cause a reaction and can be used.

Consider speaking to your child's doctor about it if the chicken egg

allergy causes anaphylaxis.
