Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Dr. Natasha McBride Generally recommends 4-8 billion bacterial cells per day for 2-4 year olds. 8-12 Billion bacterial cells per day for a 4-10 year olds. I believe that Sheila mentioned 1/8th teaspoon of yogurt is equivalent to one pill of Probiotic. One pill of the Kirkman's Acidophilus is 3 billion cells. Wow. If thats the case... and I use the 12 billion the highest possible in her range thats a mere 4/8's or 1/2 teaspoon of yogurt a day. Jody? Grammy Bauer? Anyone know what Elaine recommended as far as amounts go for a 4 year old? Brent Ella 4yrs SCD 7 months Crohns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Elaine said that up to 2 cups a day of yogurt for a child is fine. Adults can have more. Jody mom to -7 and -9 SCD 1/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 In the beginning we didn't know to go slow with the yogurt at first. We ate an entire bowel full to start with. Caused a huge die off reaction in all of us. Activated charocal and Epson Salt soaks in a warm tub are helpful. Die off reaction doesn't happen in all of us, but if it does this is what ours looked like: dizzy, nausea, irritability, cramps, body aches, very flue like. It lasted amost a week. After that week of die of is when the miracle started to occure in our autistic daughter. She started to try to talk for the first time. Now I have to make a new batch of yogurt almost every 24 hours. All five of us are eating this way. We inhale the yogurt.

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 Thanks Antoinette & Jody, Two cups is==48 Billion cells total by my calculator. Its interesting there is such a descrepancy here. I was suprised that Dr. Natasha generally recommends so little probiotic.
