Constipation/little balls of poo

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone-

I have posted about this before...but here goes again, problem is still

happening and I have increased my daughters veggie intake. She poos

maybe every other day and when she goes they are these little balls,

like deer poo. She drinks a ton, all electrolyte drink so I don't

think its dehydration. She only eats squash, lamb and about 1/4 to 1/2

teaspoons of scd goat yogurt. She seems to have a reaction with every

new vegetable I add...I keep trying! Just wondered if I am to just

wait this out, or if I should be doing something different. She seems

to have such a limited diet, I can't imagine taking anything away! I

have had to stop the green beans and the zucchini...she won't eat them

pureed, but maybe I need to offer her the veggies pureed and if she

doesn't choose to eat them..eventually she will change her mind?! I

wonder if this might make things move through more readily.

Thanks,

Have you tried the constipation protocol?

Did you try the beets? There are lots of posts in the

archives, especially from 2004, you can find by typing in beet +

constipation. Beets have helped many people who were not helped by

other methods. People have used beet juice (1 cup/day) mixed with

pear, apple, or carrot to give it sweetness. [Do dilute juices 50%

with water. Juices can be made with raw fruits and veggies even this

early in the diet if you strain out the pulp, seeds and skins.}

People have used cooked beet puree mixed with orange juice. They

have used one fresh roasted beet daily.

Here's a post that even includes a beet brownie that works.

Remember Sheila said this could also be due to yeast. You might want

to try an anti-yeast enzyme like Candex, Candizyme, Candidase, etc.

Also the probiotic S. Boulardi combats yeast.
