Guest guest Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 Is he ASD? I ask because most of our ASD kids do have latent yeast & viruses and this is step #2. #1 is the diet. Enzymes in general do promote yeast die-off but, the cellulose filler in the Enzyme-Complete DPP-IV from Kirkman's can feed yeast & cause Constipation. I would start with the enzymedica " Lacto " enzyme for a newbie. Make sure it is the SCD version or the filler is rice bran oil. I would be willing to send you some of the Kirkman's brand to try if you'd like. Jenn L Re: enzymes? Hi Jenn, I didn't see your e-mail until after I had already ordered the Kirkman products. On their website it says that the product may promote yeast die-off--so I'm a little confused (for a change:). Anyway, I don't think that he has any yeast issues, but you never know. Do you have any advice regarding using the enzymes? This is new territory for me. Thanks, Debbie > > Debbie, > If your son doesn't have yeast problems then Kirkman enzymes would be fine. However, my dd has been on SCd for 20 months has tried the Kirkman enzymes and she got yeasty. We are starting enzymes again as well but, i have opted to choose the Houston's brand instead. The Houston's brand has Rice bran oil as the filler. The difference in them is that the filler in Kirkman's brand is cellulose and isn't easily digestible so, it can feed it. So, coming from our experience, we choose Houston's for right now. Let me know offlist if you want to try the Kirkman's enzymes and I will make some kind of deal with you for some. > Jenn & K SCD 20 months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
