Help my children are turning orange!!!!!!!!1

[Guest guest]

I have two year old twins with textural issues with foods and they can be

somewhat picky eaters these days. They have been on SCD for three months now

and seem to digest and eat just fine these foods/recipes: Butternut squash

fries, acorn squash, sneaky veggie pancakes with pureed carrots, avocado

meatloaf, chicken cupcakes with applesauce instead of banana, and the goat

yogurt. One boy will eat the jello, the other will not. Anyway, with these few

foods, their BMs were becoming more normal and they seemed to eat them just

fine. But they are starting to have an orange tint to their skin and people are

starting to notice and ask if they eat lots of orange veggies. I have read it

is not too much of a big deal if children have an orange tint due to a lot of

orange type veggies, but I was wondering how to add more mild easily digestible

green and other non orange type vegetables. Does any one have any suggestions

for children with textural issues?

I have to puree all of their meats and then cook them into whatever recipe to

make it a soft type of finger food. They eat soft pudding texture type foods

just fine. They seem to prefer sweet tasting foods and will spit other stuff

out (but they will drink the goat yogurt plain). So, I put lots of cinnamon in

their food to make it seem sweet. Is that a mistake?

Suggestions needed desparately!!!

Thank you,

Dana
