Welcome Tumpa,

Saccharin is allowed and has gotten a clean bill of health for humans despite

all the media

reports about rat studies and bladder cancer. I use hermasetas TABLETS, readily

available

in Canada. I'm not sure about U.S. pharmacies that sell it.

You likely have questions about Stevia and Splenda and they are addressed in the

" S "

section of the Knowlesge base on Elaine Gottschall's website:

Sacrin can be used in place of honey. Welcome to the group.

Tumpa,

I can tell you that several of your supps are not going to work on SCD. It

depends on which version of the Spectrum Complete you are using but the flavored

powder version has xylitol in it (possibly other illegals). Pro-Bio Gold is

illegal and so is the Udo's infant probiotic. Both have bifidus bacteria.

You'll need to thoroughly go through all the supplements and check every single

one....( there is a list of legal/illegal supplement additives on

www.pecanbread.com ) and swap them out for legal versions.

I wish you well as you start SCD. This diet is a very different premise than

GF/CF, though.... " occasional cheating " will completely undermine your

efforts. So, get prepared to make the cheating impossible.

best....

Other types of sweeteners and intro

Hi,

I am just about to embark on this diet. My son is 5 diagnosed with autism at

2 years (regressed at 15-18 months), I also have a NT 2.5 yr old boy and NT

14 month old girl. We did the GFCF diet for 2 years and then noticed no

change when infractions occured. So we do " cheat " occassionaly. He is

currently on Houston enzymes AFP and I have had the " Vicious Cycle " book for

almost two years and have finally

got the " guts " to try it.

I am very overwhelmed to try this diet but will do so if it helps him.

He does not have diarhea but does get constipated (or withholds), hard to

tell which is causing which sometimes as he is non-verbal.

I'm sure I will have millions of questions so please bear with me.

I just wanted to introduce myself and ask a quick question. What alternative

of sweetener apart from honey can I use?

Thanks,

Tumpa Reinhardt
