RE: Hi, Protein Powder question

[Guest guest]

Cocoa butter is allowed... cocoa powder isn't because of it's chemical makeup <-- simple answerI used to be into bodybuilding before I got this disease. since starting SCD i've had to give away all my protein powder, but you can still make a protein shake using yogurt and blending a banana and some honey into it, or whatever else you want in order to flavor it. I drink a yagurt shake after the gym now. If you drip the yogurt first, it's almost pure casein.. which is a good cheap source of protein.Hope this helps.-UC - 1+ yearsSCD - 11 months 100% strict and 4 months restricted diet.Colazol - 9 pills a day Prednisone 25mg entocort With vit E mixed inBack to intro/stage 1 for now.To: BTVC-SCD From: caseyp57@...Date: Sun, 9 May 2010 02:15:34 +0000Subject: Hi, Protein Powder question

Hi I've been trying to start the SCD program off and on [easing into it] for my autistic 'child' [age 20] and I wonder if there is a 'legal' protein powder allowed on this diet? I know hemp is out and some others. I'd like to make some sort of peanut butter balls. ALso why is cocoa not allowed if anyone knows? [Please don't tell me 'because it works that way' as I've already found this answer on the net! lol]

Thanks!
