Guest guest Posted July 17, 2007 Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 If I want to buy dry yoghurt starter (I live in Sweden, Europe...), I would like your opinions about what brand? In Pecanbread info GIProHealth is the only one mentioned, I guess there´s a reason? GIProHealth/SCDiet/LucysKS/Digestivewellness? Other? And why? Is someone lacking, or having, a special very needed strain of bacteria? Thank you, again, for advice! And for having this list, experience and knowledge.

Other? www.customprobiotics.com also has one that looks good as well. The Progurt for GiProHealth is dairy free, and some children with autism cannot handle any dairy at all. Personally I went with Giprohealth, but only because they answered questions fully & quickly. Some ASD kids can handle goat's milk yogurt. Some can handle cow's milk yogurt. There is also the A2Milk - cow's milk without the mutated version of casein (that is implicated in autism, type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, etc), but it'll take effort to locate in your home country. Non-dairy alternatives: nut milks, fermented cabbage juice (can use yogurt starter, or be traditional with just salt - good for healing intestinal mucosa). > And why?

As long as it's the right strain, and doesn't have anything that will remain after the fermentation period (such as gums). Russ. SCD since mid-May 2007; ?Coeliac.

Ah, interesting. He did seem quite reluctant to answer any questions posed, giving short answers to some but not all. thanks. Russ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another powdered starter that many SCDers use is Lyosan's yogurt starter. It contains some cow dairy. In the UK some use the Total or Organic sheep milk commercial yogurts as a starter. If doing that follow the directions in BTVC It tells you how much you need /quart (litre) http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info/beginners_guide/yoghurt/yog_star ters.htm> Sheila, SCD Feb. 2001, UC 23yrs, PCOD 22yrs mom of and daniel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
