What do you do when there is a sugar/carb infraction?

April 21, 2007

Hi I'm a newbie here and having great gains from my 7yrs DD after being on

SCD for about 6 weeks. But no matter how I try we are having probably one

infraction a week of sugar/carb. It's only usually a sweet or something that

someone gives her when I'm not looking, or an unripe banana from someone that

doesn't understand.

I know realistically that there are going to be days when some carb creeps

in when she is given food by other people without my knowledge.

What do you do for an infraction? Increase yeast protocol for a day?

Increase betaine and pepsin? Give a zyme prime or a AFP peptizyde?

How can the effects be minimised? Do you have to go back to the intro diet

if there is an infraction?

Thanks,

Joy

Boy do I understand this post. : D

We use enzymes. They do help. By far the biggest problem with infractions is

that they feed the yeast. Even if she doesn't show a yeast overgrowth, assume

that she's going to have one (since the yeast just got a picnic).

Another idea is to make sure there are plenty of alternatives like scd candy. I

ended up giving candy to our friends to help them understand. It did help.

One way or the other, don't stop. It gets easier and your daughter is making

gains even with the slip ups.
