Guest guest Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 We are on day 19 of SCD. My daughter is very yeasty. Bumps on her bum. Her belly has expanded in the last couple of days and she is gassy. She also complains that she is very itchy everwhere (back, tummy, arms, legs). And her face is looking bumpy again (this had went away after starting enzymes in November). She has been eating well on the diet and has gained 2 pounds. She has been consuming a lot of honey and we backed off that as of yesterday afternoon. But I'm very hestitant to limit fruit too much as she is very hungry and we need a lot of snacks. She also eats the meats well and her veggies. Fruit is her primary snack, although we made baked carrot chips yesterday and the pecan waffles the past two days - she seems to tolerate the half egg okay (yeah! - thanks Carol for the recipes!) as previously her intolerances were evident within the next BM. We have started what appears to be a legal brand of probiotics as she hasn't tolerated dairy in the past. Is this die off and the yeast is on the way out, or are we feeding the yeast? I re-read what Elaine said in BTVC, but unsure if this yeastyness is dieing or reviving. Unfortunately she had a bout of the stomach flu right before we started the diet, so I'm sure she lost a lot of the good guys before we started SCD. So, to recap: 1. Do I need to cut back on the fruit? 2. Is this die off or a yeast problem? Thank you in advance. Colby DD 3 1/2 scd day 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
