which milk and probiotic questions

[Guest guest]

2 questions -

1. I search all over the web pages and see that some people use goat milk and

others use cow milk. What is better to start off for a child? Some places say

heat to 180 degrees and the Cycle book says to boil (with no specific degree)

and remove from the heat. Confusing!!!!

2 Probiotic - Ok he is sensitive I guess because the loose stools is still

here. I give him 1/2 teaspoon a day. How long is the stool to be loose. I do

not want him to get dehydrated. It is hard enough with the behaviors. My son

never spun, flapped, and yelled lilke this until now. When will that stop? I

read the die off information but I am going crazy.

Hi Ms. Le May,

<< 1. I search all over the web pages and see that some people use

180°F is for goat milk because it is more fragile than cow milk. Cow

milk should be heating until you see bubbles appear on the surface of

the milk.

If you have had problems with cow dairy in the past goat milk yogurt

may be a better choice to start with. If you were CF preSCD than

goat milk yogurt is the usuall choice for SCD newbies.

<<2 Probiotic - Ok he is sensitive I guess because the loose stools

What probiotic are you using? Most come in capsules and are small

amounts.

Do you mean 1/2 tsp of yogurt?
