Re: Protein Powder and SCD

[Guest guest]

There is not a legal protein powder, however, unlimited amounts of protein is

allowed on SCD.I think everyone just makes do with plenty of meat, fish, and

eggs. You can snack on beef patties- they freeze and travel well, chicken

breasts, hard boiled eggs, and eat frequent small snacks of these as a protein

supplement.

found themselves in my situation, be able to offer up some advice as to how they

maintaining the proper daily protein intake required to sustain muscle growth.

Hi ,

I am in a very similar position. I'm currently training for a 1/2 ironman and

have found as my training plans increases (the race is in August) I am having

some serious issues with getting enough, easily digestible, nutrition. I do

take glutamine after workouts and find that works well for muscle recovery. As

far as, protein replenishment I have been making what I call " cashew energy

chews " adapted from a caramel recipe. It's basically cashew butter, honey and

some oil. I freeze them in bite size servings and use them either during the

bike or immediately following the run.

Hope that helps a little. I would love to hear anything you're doing that is

working well. I have yet to find a trainer or nutritionist who can really

help--they just don't understand the diet.

Good Luck,

Stacey

I was at digestive wellness and they had gotten a sample of Peruvian Brazil Nut

Protein Powder that they aren't going to carry and they let me take it home as I

have serious low selenium levels - you'd have to contact

www.essentiallivingfoods.com to confirm a letter of legality and because it's

brazil nut powder - you probably couldn't take it more than once a day or you'd

be in danger of too much selenium but thought I'd throw it out there

also I used to make avoc, ban, pecan butter ,yogurt drinks - you could throw in

Egg whites too

hope this helps

If the answer is no, would anyone who possibly found themselves in my situation, be able to offer up some advice as to how they handled the challenge of eliminating protein powder from their diet while still maintaining the proper daily protein intake required to sustain muscle growth. ============================================================================== The SCDâ„¢ Knowledge Base Protein Powder Elaine writes:http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info/knowledge_base/kb/protein_powder.htmI am fully aware of how much whey protein is being pushed (hyped). I spent considerable

time a few years ago corresponding by snail mail with the HIV and AIDS organizations in New York City when they asked me about it. I told them the little that I know and that is that through the years, the protein in whey has always been considered to be an inferior protein for human consumption. Years ago, we knew it contained the more antigenic proteins in the milk and we also knew that Depts of Agriculture were promoting that whey (a waste product from cheese manufacture) be turned into a moneymaking commodity.More recently, whey protein hypers claim that whey protein contains a factor that has to do with insulin but I have forgotten the details except to read in literature that these very factors being hyped are, in fact, having a negative effect on sick people. So my answer to you is that I do not like it. Protein powders that contains Bifidobacteria Bifidum. Protein Powders are a

bad Protein Drink:Yogurt, egg, honey, vanilla in the blender. This is what I did when I got out of the hospital because they wanted me to drink that Ensure stuff. I drank one in the hospital and was so ill it wasn't funny. I made my own when I got home and my doc was as pleased as punch.

Hi Stacey,

Thanks very much for writing back. As far as a nutritionist is concerned, I

agree, it is difficult to find someone who is open minded and willing to work

with you. I'm from Monmouth County, NJ and work with a nutritionist who is in

Red Bank, NJ. He is exceptional and I am going to pick his brain this week when

I meet with him, I'll write to you after my meeting with him with any helpful

tips.

The glutamine and the " bites " sound like great ideas, as of yet, I havent really

discovered a really solid solution to our troubles, but the more I explore, the

more I will be in touch. Where is your 1/2 ironman, is it the one in

Philadelphia?

Thanks and good luck to you,
