Re: Cashew yogurt/cheese question

Hi ,

is a must,

honey.

It will still make a yogurt without the honey but the number of

bacteria will be substantially less. The honey is mainly what the

good bacteria feed and multiply on since the nut yogurt is dairy

free (lactose being their preferred food).

lactose??

All cheese is not created equal

The cheeses listed as use freely in the appendix of BTVC are

virtually lactose free. When the body has healed sufficiently you

should be able to tolerate them. The cheeses in the Not permitted

column still have large amounts of lactose and are not SCD legal.
