Re: Re: Are green peas illegal?!?!?!?!?

[Guest guest]

I just came across this old email and I don't know if

anyone responded that green peas are high in

excitotoxins so it might be good to limit them for

this reason.

green peas are excitotoxins? I did not know about this idea. Is it part of SCD

and Elaine's book or is it from another source? If it is from another source, I

would like to know where so that I can investigate further for myself.

Thanks.

Peas are listed as legal on page 74, edition ten of BTVC. Alwats check

your book or the legal/illegal lists on our web sites.

Unfortunately too many other ideas get presented that confuse people.

As Sheila said, pea flour (and also bean flour) are not legal.

Peas are a sweet vegetable but that never stopped me from including

them. Everything is suggested in moderation and the ideal is a balanced

menu.

Sheril,

The reference to excitotoxins might be from Dr. Blaylock's book. You can

do a net search and read much more about the subject.

His theories are not at all part of SCD. Green peas are definitely legal here,

although not for brand new beginners.
