Guest guest Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 > > I want to approach this carefully because I know that pork is scd legal. I recently was told by someone with high cholesterol and heart disease that their dr. advised them not to eat pork. The reason was that pigs have a very short digestive track, and they eat anything. With the short digestive system, their bodies do not adequately filter out toxins that they injest. We don't eat a lot of pork, and only buy pasture fed, organic pork when we do use it. I'm just wondering what anyone's thoughts are about this specifically concerning kids on the asd. Has anyone else ever heard this? Rest assurred that I am not advocating omitting pork. I know that it is scd legal. I just wanted anyone's thoughts. Feel free to reply off list if you think that your replies might cause confusion with scd. Whole Foods has lovely pork raised under good conditions, not fed garbage, hormones or anti biotic. I have gooten sick from pork dishes in Chinese retaurants in the past, before SCD..not once since using pork from Whole Foods. Here is a tasty favorite recipe: SMOTHERED CHOPS by Carol 1 thick pork or veal chop 1/2 cup grape juice a little honey and wet mustard 1/2 cup pineapple, crushed and drained OR 1/4 cup raisins a little oil salt and pepper to taste Preheat oven to 350F Heat an oven proof skillet and add oil. Brown the chop for five minutes on each side. Remove from heat for 2 minutes. Spread mustard and honey on top. Add fruit. Cover and bake 35 minutes covered. Remove cover and bake 10 more minutes. Cool slightly before serving. P.S. Don't mention this to my neighbor, a reform Rabbi :-) Carol F. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
