Guest guest Posted June 9, 2006 Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 Hi April, I can't answer your questions about Paxil or other drugs. We buy activated charcoal at kirkmans (www.kirkmanlabs.com) I also love my yogurt maker!! Yogurt every morning for breakfast...I love it! Carolyn mom to DD, age 10, SCD 2.5 months > > Any comments and/or suggestions would be helpful. We are having trouble with SCD. Some recipes taste less than desirable. I really want some good bread!!!! No matter what we are staying with the yogurt. I will get my $39.99 out of that machine. Its really nice. My gut is fighting back. Can't find activated charcoal and the pharmacy guy looked at me like a terrorist buying amonia or plutonium!!! I'm just a mom with a special kid for goodness sakes. After we get tests back from Great Smokey Labs on the BM samples will probably start enzymes. At least no-phenol. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 3, 2006 Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 Welcome to the group , > I am new to the SCD, and have read a few messages recommending the use of activate charcoal. What is it, why do you need it, and where do you get it? Activated charcoal is carbon that has been treated to increase it absorption power. It can be used for excess intestinal gas, to absorb some poisons and in the case of SCD help relieve die off symptoms by absorbing toxins released from the death of the harmful microbes. Many pharmacies sell it in capsules etc. Just check with the pharmacist to ensure there are no illegal ingredients. Some of them contain sugar etc. The activated charcoal should not be used long term. Sheila, SCD 2/01, UC 22yrs mom of and Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
