Guest guest Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Hi Monika, You asked a very good question! Kefir is an advanced food that should be used later in the diet after there has been more gut healing. It is a fantastic food but some kids get a very strong reaction to it. Please avoid young coconuts,and use mature coconuts instead. Start out with yogurt made with cocconut milk. Yogurt produces a less fierce detox reaction. The best medium for fermented drinks is goat milk. Even ASD children who cannot tolerate it,return to baseline after a few days. So there is no risk for trying it. Please wait a month after starting the diet and start out with 1/8 of a teaspoon if your child was CF prior to SCD. The SCD yogurt is a miracle for our ASD kids!

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Hi Mimi, What type of SCD yogurt worked well with your kids? Did you use goat milk? I tried to use the coconut kefir which my son reacted terribly. His gut was not ready. I definitely want to try the yogurt. thanks, Kathrina > >Reply-To: pecanbread >To: pecanbread >Subject: Re: coconut Kefir >Date: Wed, 05 Apr 2006 14:15:17 -0000 > >Hi Monika, > >You asked a very good question! >Kefir is an advanced food that should be used later in the diet after >there has been more gut healing.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Hi Kathrina, Sorry for the dealy in answering your post,I missed seeing it. I used goat milk yogurt. One should start with small doses such as 1/8 of a teaspoon. Mimi > > Hi Mimi, > > What type of SCD yogurt worked well with your kids?
