Guest guest Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 I have been wanting to get back to some of our food based supplements (i.e. acerola powder, Brewer's Yeast), but have held off as they are not SCD legal. I have recently been reading alot about No-Fenol " mimicking " the SCD diet as it breaks down the illegals so they are digestable. Here is what I am pondering, and would appreciate thoughts/ experiences; if we give something like acerola powder or brewer's yeast with No-Fenol, could it negate the " illegal " status enough to make it still SCD? We would still eat SCD legal, it is just the food based supplements that I would really like to get back to- The whole family is on SCD for a variety of reasons; my oldest son for absence seizures, my younger son for tics, my husband and I for general health. Your 2 cents is greatly appreciated! Tracey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 Tracey, I once asked Elaine a similar question and here is her answer: (Not an exact quote) Many children who just start out with SCD have very damaged guts filled with mucus. The mucus might prevent the enzyme or the No-Fenol from getting to the SCD illegal food or supplement. If these supplements are not required then I would be tempted to forget about them. 100% SCD is so much more powerful than the best supplements.
