I'm using the capsules, mixed in juice. It's on the legal list and I

don't see any illegals in the ingredients.

I'd say that it is most likely die off. Watch for a couple of days to see

what happens. Are you using probiotics or yogurt? Remember that they need

to be spaced out a couple of hours from when he gets the antifungals.

Thank you so much. I was pretty sure, but wanted to double check to

make sure I hadn't done something wrong.

And I don't know WHY it's on the legal list because it has pau d'arco in

it, and that is very decidedly not legal. I've posted more completely on

the Long Island List.

Corin, Marilyn et al,

I believe that Corin, you were looking under the illegal Kirkman supplement

list. It is listed there as illegal.

Yes, it looks like both the powder (contains pau d'arco and sorbitol) and the

capsules (pau d'arco) are not SCD legal.

You might want to look into one of the anti-yeast enzyme products like Candex,

which is legal.

Although.... to go back to your original question, the " slimey " , stringy stuff

has been reported by other parents as yeast die-off. So, it could be working

somewhat, but you just need to know that it's unfortunately not legal on the

diet.

Should I be concerned, or is this normal?

I'm sorry if this is TMI.

We started our son on Yeast Aid to deal with some issues he has, on

Wednesday night. Since then his BM's are completely slimey. Not solid

at all, and the consistency of thick snot. He does have a slight cold,

so that could be part of it, but not totally.

I'm wondering if this is a common reaction to yeast die-off, or if it

could be caused by something else?

Thanks for any help you can give me!

At the Pecan Bread website under supplements it is listed under " Legal

Kirkman Supplements " If this is not legal then can someone please

change that. It's an expensive mistake to make.

You're right.... it is listed there as legal.

I know that Jody made this list up some years ago. It could be that it was legal

at the time and they changed the formula, I don't know. No matter what, you

need to check every supplement label before you buy and make sure it's legal,

because the webmaster at Pecanbread.com can't possibly keep up with every single

product as changes are made.

I know we discussed this dilemma a few years ago.... whether or not to even HAVE

a list of legal/illegal supplements, because this sort of thing was bound to

happen. But, parents kept requesting a list.

I'll let Mimi know ASAP.

Corin is correct that the Yeast-Aid capsules are legal under the Legal Kirkman

Supplements list. It is the powder that is not. Patti, is that correct or does

it need to be changed.

I mentioned two days ago that the Yeast Aid POWDER (contains sorbitol, sucralose

and

natural flavoring). It is on the illegal list.

The capsules are listed as legal and I have no idea what is in them and presume

it is the

powder.

As Marilyn (I think) posted yesterday, the Yeast-Aid capsules contain Pau

d'Arco, which, she said, was illegal..... I believe it's one of the

mucilaginous herbs. That's what I was going by. It could be that they never

should have been listed as legal.... OR it could be that they changed the

formula later.

Thank you all for your help amidst the confusion :-D I really do

appreciate it.

My husband and I have discussed it and believe that it will be a

necessary part of his healing (after 3 years of yeast issues) and after

spending the money on it, we can't afford to buy another right now.

So we will continue doing the SCD as far as food goes, only with the

illegal supplement for a few weeks (the benefits outweigh the risks in

our situation). It's that, or have him live with lifelong scars on his

body from yeast rashes. In the future we'll keep an eye out for another

supplement if his yeast issue comes back.

Thank you again for your help.
