We ran out of acidophilus capsules. Could this be some of our problem?

[Guest guest]

Down below I described how my son, , has recently started refusing foods he

loved before. He only wants to eat bananas and other " sweet " stuff or almond

flour muffins/pancakes. He is also recently really experiencing some sensory

issues. We ran out of acidophilus capsules about a week ago. Could some yeast

be stirred up in his system and lack of acidophilus be causing these problems?

He does get goat yogurt every day about 10-13 ounces.

Thanks, Dana

I have a two year old who is suddenly deciding he does not like SCD legal foods

that were once his favorites. He refuses to eat them now and will spend the

entire time throwing food to the floor. He used to like chicken tots, sneaky

veggie pancakes, and other recipes from pecanbread.com. Now, all he wants are

bananas (which he does not digest well and his behavior deteriorates when he

eats too many), goat yogurt, and almond muffins/pancakes (which I feel he also

does not digest well). He would also eat fruit all day long if I let him. I do

not know what to do.

He does not understand nor care about cute characters and does not understand

" if you eat a bite of this, then you can have a bite of that. "

Right now I am still able to mix some foods like spinach or zuchinni with pear a

little chicken and coconut oil and puree with cinnamon and honey and he will

eat. But if I offer this all day every day, he will probably begin to refuse it

as well. I am concerned. How am I going to get him to heal if he refuses to eat

the best foods for him to heal?

Thanks, Dana

Hi Dana,

The yeast could be increasing with the lack of acidophilus. That may

explain the increased appetite for " sweet " foods. Lots of bananas

etc...

>He does get goat yogurt every day about 10-13 ounces.

Are you using the GI Prohealth ProGurt starter? If yes, it does not

contain L. acidophilus. It contains L. casei, L. bulgaricus and S.

thermophilus, so supplementation with L. acidophilus may have been

helping with keeping yeast levels down.
