Guest guest Posted October 8, 2007 Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 Does it matter what brand or source vitamin c to use for SCDer's? In previous diets they talked about some are from corn based sources and are problematic. Is there a difference with SCD?

Because of the way the Vitamin C is extracted from whatever, in theory, the source doesn't matter. However, a friend of mine who was SCD was lamenting that she couldn't take Vitamin C because it always threw her into a flare. Later in the same conversation, she mentioned that farmed fish, because it was fed on a lot of grain, fave her trouble. I asked if she knew that much Vitamin C was derived from corn, and she did not. She found a non-Corn sourced Vitamin C, and was fine. I, on the other hand, am fine with corn-sourced Vitamin C, although actually eating corn... no, that's a memory I don't want to go anywhere with. (Early in the diet I wasn't pushy enough to send food back if not properly prepared, and the results of my failure almost resulted in my missing the Christmas Eve candlelight service, which I love.) — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
