Re: Goat vs. Cow's Milk yogurt?

It's possible to have issues with anything. But you should trial them

separately just to be sure.

to Goat's Milk for now? I feel GREAT now--head to toe. I'm also approaching the

adjustment period or die-off (??) Thanks for any advice!

You should try the regular yogurt. Just start with a small bit and

work up - see how you react. Since you are now aware of a

relationship between these two, you'll be super perceptive

if you start to get a bad reaction.

It's perfectly possible to react to cheese, but not to regular yogurt.

Ok thanks!! I'll give it a try (with my fingers crossed).

Absolutely you could have an issue with meat. I mean, people can have an issue

with anything really. I actually know 4 people who have UC-like symptoms

anytime they eat meat (though one stopped having the problem when she got

pregnant with her son - go figure!). And too much protein can cause problems.

If you really want to eat DCCC or the cow's milk yogurt then it's probably a

good idea just to try a little bit of one without the other to see if there is a

reaction. But just a little bit so that if you do react to it, you lessen the

impact. Then again if the goat's milk yogurt is working for you and you're

feeling good, why not just continue with it? I think if I were in your position

I would just stick to the stuff that's making me feel good but obviously it's up

to you

Ok, very interesting about the meat. Possibly I was just consuming more than my

body could breakdown. I pretty much ate DCCC and meat for every meal and snack

at first but now have stopped that and I am having a lot of vegetables (the

one's that don't bother me). I actually tried some of the cow's milk yogurt

last night and felt okay so I had a little more this morning. So far I feel

pretty good, my stomach seems a tiny bit upset today, but the body and headaches

haven't returned. I made up some goat's milk yogurt last night so I think I

might stick with that for a while and in a couple weeks (after I have a steady

period of feeling good) try it again and if that goes well, then try some of the

DCCC again. Right now I feel very up and down with whether I feel okay or not so

it's tough to tell. I appreciate the advice.

I noticed that when I started SCD, I had a bad reaction to the

homemade yogurt with cow's milk but not with goats milk. Then many

months later I was able to do homemade yogurt with cow's milk.
