Thinking about stopping SCD and adding grains, need advice

[Guest guest]

Hi,

We have been on SCD since june 09. My son has never been able to tolerate more

then about 20 or so foods, his whole life. Since starting SCD we haven't gone

far. He can eat meats and I created a cashew muffin and bananas and eggs. He

will not eat the broth anymore. Minimal vegs. cauliflower and peas. Everything

else I introduced caused him to have a bad rash around his mouth that went along

with general irritable and bad sleep and D. I think I have found the problem,

Phenols. I took out many of the high phenol and he is just so much better.

So here is my dilemma, Phenols are mostly found in fruits, Vegs and nuts. There

is very few that are low phenol. There is not much left to feed this poor guy.

He has been eating meatballs, eggs and muffins for months. He doesn't want to

eat because he is tired of eating the same thing, I don't blame him.

I was going to try to introduce some low phenol grains and see what happened.

Has anyone experienced anything like this? If so I would love to hear from you

or even if someone has more info on this? I also think Oxalates and possible

Glutamates may be issues? Does anyone know of a gluten free, dairy free low

phenol cookbook?

Thanks and Good luck to all!!

For me, and many people, LDN not only helps one's digestive disease (and greatly decreases fatigue), but it mitigates allergies/allergic reactions as well because of its positive effect on one's immune response. What you're describing re: the rash sounds like that kind of response.n -- Now available.

You could try using No-Fenol enzymes. Also ask at pecanbread, because a lot of

parents there have dealt with phenol issues.
