Re: Advice please, re-do the intro diet?

[Guest guest]

I'm not sure if corn oil is legal. Anyone? Mayb the spices are hard on their

system. I'm particularly thinking things like cinamon. I don't think that

you're supposed to use spices on intro. That's my initial thought, but someone

else can chime in with better thoughts, I'm sure. Personally, I would probably

do intro for just a day or two with very plain foods. Then, start with herbs

before spices for seasonings.

Advice please, re-do the intro diet?

Hi,

I would like to ask you if you think there is reason for us to DO THE

INTRO AGAIN for two days?

This because we got corn oil, cinnamon, cardemum, and herb spices

( " clean " , dry) during the four days intro.

We're now about day 13 scd and taken off the bananas since a couple of

days, because childrens pooh got so wet when we introduced them. Pooh

has not tightened up after 3 days without banana.

(we now only eat oil, spices, honey and zuccini besides the intro things.)

Is it possible to start with the spices, oils after the intro or

should we wait longer?

Please let me know if you think it would be a good idea to start all over,

Lotta, family (two kids) scd day 13, daughter asd.

Corn oil IS legal! Avoid spices on the intro. It's only for a few days. You can

use salt in the

chicken soup.

If the stools haven't firmed up again doing the intro again may help.

If things are still not firmed up after redoing the intro you may

want to wait a while longer on the spices. When things are better

introduce the spices one at a time.

If still having loose stools or diarrhea hold off on oils and fats

because they are harder to digest.

Cinnamon may be easier to digest than cardamom. The cardamom should

be ground fine when you try it. Which herbs are you trying?

Make sure the zucchini is peeled and cooked at first.
