Guest guest Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 I introduced yogurt last week to my two toddlers and have been watching stools and mood very carefully. I thought we were in the clear as stools and mood have been great. However, my younger son (2 1/2) has begun to slur his words. IS THERE ANY CHANCE THAT THIS IS A RESULT OF INTRODUCING YOGURT AND CHEESE? COULD HE POSSIBLY BE HAVING AN OPIOID EFFECT/URINARY PEPTIDE ISSUE?

How much did you start with? 4. Any other new foods? Suplements? Medicines etc. in this time frame?

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 Hi Janice, It sounds as if your younger son may be having a reaction. I'd stop the cow yogurt for now. He may do better with the goat yogurt because of the smaller milk proteins - at this point his body may be unable to digest/tolerate the cow yogurt (larger milk proteins). He may be okay later with the cow yogurt after some more healing has occured. You wrote that nobody liked the goat yogurt. If you drip the yogurt to a cream cheese consistency you'll remove a great deal of the tartness etc. If you decide to try the goat yogurt like this I'd suggest waiting a few days for his system to clear out and then dripping the yogurt (maybe add to homemade apple/pearsauce or another cold food he is tolerating) and starting with 1/8 tsp and stay at that level for a week. Some of the problem maybe die off and the driiped yogurt will be stronger. Sheila, SCD 2/01, UC 22yrs mom of and > > > > 1. How many days on the yogurt? Cow yogurt.
