This is not a part of offixcial SCD protocol but adds in more detail to your

comments,

. It reflects the opinion of the Author, Dr. herbert Shelton.I stuck an OT

label on for

that reason.

Vinegar retards digestion

Experiments have shown that as small a portion of vinegar as one in 5,000

sppreciab1y

diminishes the digestion of starch by its inhibiting or destructive effect upon

the salivary

amylase. One part in 1,000 renders starch digestion very slow and twice this

quantity

arrests it altogether. From these facts it becomes evident that vinegar, pickles

(saturated

with vinegar), salads on which vinegar has been sprinkled and salad dressings

containing

vinegir, are unwholesome substances to take into the human digestive tract,

especially

when taken with starchy foods such as cereals, bread, legumes, potatoes and the

like.

Vinegar is not an evil merely because its highly toxic acetic acid content

destroys ptylain

(salivary amylase), but it also contains alcohol, which precipitates the pepsin

of the gastric

juice and retards or prevents gastric digestion of proteins. What wonder then

that pickles

and vinegar have been found useful in reducing weight. They cripple the first

two stages

of digestion. My readers should know that apple cider vinegar, which is so much

lauded

today as a " wonder drug " in folk medicine con tains both acetic acid and alcohol

and is

unfit for use, not alone because it impairs digestion, but also because it

contains these

two virulent poisons.

SCD 6 years, celiac, can't consume vinegar. too acidic for me

he had an interesting life, dr. sheldon, depressing really

acetic acid does appear to inhibit amylase

i use white vinegar rather than apple cider vinegar

if you find vinegar too acidic you may be lacking intestinal mucosa a

bit

you might benefit from iodine aka my web page
