Guest guest Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Eileen, I looked up Maytenus krukovii here: http://www.rain-tree.com/chuchuhuasi.htm Being a horticulturist I was curious about the plant. But I’m no chemist so can’t say if it is legal or not. What is AK recommending it for? Reading through the link it sounds like it’s mostly the bark that is used. Would you be drinking it as a tea? Or in capsules? Of course you know that if you try it, do so cautiously and discontinue if it causes irritation or other symptoms. Sorry I could not have a more definitive answer for you.

In general, bark teas and ground bark (with the exception of certain spices) are not SCD legal. There's a difference between taking capsules of the stuff and using a teaspoonful as flavoring in an entire dish, of which you eat a single portion. Many otherwise competent medical practitioners do not know how what they prescribe contravenes the principles of SCD. Or they assume a small infraction does not matter. — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
