Die off phases?

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

I'm in my 4th week of SCD now. I felt bad upon starting the diet and almost

gave up when all of a sudden I started feeling great (last week). I cut out the

DCCC and reduced the amount of meat I was eating. I have introduced goat's milk

yogurt and seemed to be doing great with it. All of a sudden this weekend, I

started feeling bad again- joint pains, headaches, exhaustion, digestive issues.

I am still eating the same foods I was eating last week and felt fine using.

Could this be die-off again? Are people usually up and down in the beginning?

I'm worried that this last batch of goat's milk yogurt may have not fermented

correctly. Is there any way to know?

Thanks for any advice,

Cindy

yes - it is a very unstable time as you are doing major work on

shifting your gut ecology.

Sounds like it could be die-off. Take epsom baths to ease

the joint pain.
