Re:Re: Starting SCD: Cheese in the intro phase?

[Guest guest]

The intro. diet doesn’t allow much dairy, because the

purpose of it is to eat very easy-to-digest foods, and dairy can be

problematic. Elaine allowed the SCD cheesecake, but many people on the

intro. diet don’t tolerate it. Same with the 24-hour yogurt, you

can try it but it is probably wiser to wait until after the intro. diet.

Pecanbread focuses on children dealing with autism, and it’s

best to avoid casein, so the recipes and information on that site don’t

include dairy. So it’s not the lactose that is a concern, but

rather the casein.

I would put cheeses into the category of trying a small amount

in the 3rd or 4th week on SCD – but all depends on

your symptoms. Some people can’t touch cheese for months, if not

years – others can eat cheese in the 2nd week. Same with

yogurt and the cheesecake.

As you’ll find out, we all have to go through a

testing process to figure out which permitted foods our own bodies are ready to

tolerate.

In

the " intro " diet, what milk products are allowed? From BTVC, it seems

that she recommends eating a bunch of SCD yogurt and the cheesecake recipe and

what-not, but looking at Pecanbread.com, for example, it seems that they prefer

holding off on Yogurt for ~3 months. Is this because Pecanbread.com is more

focused on Autism, and Autism is more sensitive to Lactose?

If some milk products are allowed in the intro phase, can I use SCD-legal

cheeses?
