Re:Re: help on choosing supplements

[Guest guest]

There

are number of supplements you can find that have none of the ingredients we

should avoid while on SCD. Many of them will probably be mail-order/online

sources as it is often difficult to find good supplements in local

stores. I use the list of legal and illegal supplement ingredients

found on the pecanbread website when I’m shopping for supplements: http://www.pecanbread.com/p/Sup1.html

scroll down about halfway for the list.

I

just looked at Beyond Bone Defense. My decision would be to find another

alternative, but I don’t feel qualified to state positively that it

contains illegals. I do have some concerns about some of the ingredients –

on the other hand, extracts often break down some of the polysaccharide chains

so can be digested. It is the quantity of multiple ingredients in Beyond

Bone Defense that worries me the most; it is a lot for the body to absorb and

utilize, particularly if your digestion is compromised. It is also expensive.

I

am brand new to the group and trying to get on the SCD. In addition to my gut

problems I have osteoporosis. I have been using several Standard Process

supplements, but they seem not to be SCD legal.

The doctor who recommended the diet to me has suggested Beyond Bone Defense by

Longevity Plus, but she is pretty new to SCD and doesn't really know if it is

OK.

I would appreciate input from anyone who has experience with this.
