Re: Probiotics - the importance with SCD

[Guest guest]

Allan,

Yes, it is critically important that you introduce.... so yes. You didn't say

how long he has been on SCD, but you could have been supplementing that all

along. You really need to re-establish the good gut flora.

Probiotics - the importance with SCD

Hi !

I am new to this group:

I would much like to know how important the Probiotics

are on the SCD ?

I have my 9 year old son with Epilepsy on the SCD and he is also GF/CF

and only on the low to mid-low GI foods(that is without Honey eg.),

but with great results uptill now in his seizure-activity, and well-

being with no meds and so on... )

But we have been on the SCD for some time now, and I wonder if it

is wise to introduce the " Lactobacillus Achidofilus " with his daily

food now ?

Regards and thanks in advance /

Allan

Dear Allan,

It has been suggested to us by many, and now from me to you, to

follow the guidlines in the BTVC book. If Elaine says do it we do

it, if she voices concerns we do not. WE are having success in

controling siezure too. We have had to adjust her diet back to

peeled and cooked foods but, she has not had a sizure in over one

month and this was only during the 2-3 month regression that BTVC

book warns about. This is how I look at it: If Elaine says to do

it, do it. If she warns not to do it. Don't. It is working for us.
