Re: No probiotics for a while..?

[Guest guest]

Without a source of probiotics, yeast will tend to be opportunistic and fill in

the space vacated by bacterial colonies. That is the main reason for taking

probiotics and using yogurt, from what I understand.

No probiotics for a while..?

Will some of the bad guys still die-off without probiotics?

With a strict Scd of course.

Will this do much harm in the short term?

Thanks,

I really don't want that. Hopefully I will be able to start these

probiotics back up some how.

I wonder how much probiotic would be enough to hold back the yeast.

I tried some probiotic with them again and just a couple days of

it(not very much ) really impaired my daughter reading, concentration

etc.(and my son,Oh boy!!) And those supplements will take a while to

be tolerated.We'll get there.

Thanks Patti,

Cathy

Hi Cathy,

Here is the low and slow way to introduce probiotics:

1. It is easiest to start with a probiotic that is in capsule form,

where each capsule is equivalent to 3 billion cfus. Two SCD legal

probiotics that you might consider starting with are Kirkmans

Acidophilus or GI Pro Acidophilus . Either of these is equivalent to 3

billion CFUs per capsule. ( If you choose to use a different SCD legal

probiotic, you will need to convert the measurement so that you are

starting with an amount of probiotic that is equivalent to 3 billion

CFUs).

2. Mix 1 capsule (3 billion CFUs) with 1/4 cup of water, until the

mixture is well mixed. This mixture will be referred to as the

PROBIOTIC MIXTURE.

3. Measure out 1 TBSP of the PROBIOTIC MIXTURE.

4. Add the 1 TBST of the PROBIOTIC MIXTURE to 1/2 cup of SCD legal

juice OR your child can just drink the 1 TBSP PROBIOTIC MIXTURE

straight.

By starting at this level, you will be administering approximately 750

million cells of probiotic to start. Once that level is tolerated,

increase the amount of PROBIOTIC MIXTURE that you are adding to the

juice ( or giving to your child straight) to 2 TBSP. Once that level

is tolerated, increase the amount of PROBIOTIC MIXTURE that you are

adding to the juice ( or giving to your child straight) to 3 TBSP.

Once that level is tolerated, increase the amount of PROBIOTIC MIXTURE

that you are adding to the juice ( or giving to your child straight)

to 4 TBSP. At this point, your child will be tolerating 3 billion CFU

capsule of probiotic.

At this point, you can consider adding in goat yogurt. You should

start with 1/8 of a tsp of goat yogurt....

If your child cannot tolerate 1TBSP of the PROBIOTIC MIXTURE, then you

might consider trying 1/8 of a teaspoon or some other smaller amount.

There is also a certain subgroup of children who cannot tolerate any

probiotics during the first months of SCD.
