Re: Some advice please!!

She may have a viral illness. I would try making some of the SCD Electrolyte

Drink... from Elaine's website, www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info, in the

" Knowledge Base " under " E " .

Let her have just sips of that, if she is still vomiting. Chicken broth would

also be a good choice.

It *could* also be die-off.... but since you started the diet Feb. 11th, it

seems you would be almost past that by now. Did you just re-start or change the

foods you were giving her?

Some advice please!!

Hello, I want to thank Carol F. for the information about my concern with

cheese and nut flour. The bad news is that is not feeling well. She threw

up during almost 2 hours last night. We could see all the food she had at

dinner, but after that there was a lot of mucus, so I don't know if this could

be part of the die-off since her stools are still very soft and smelly. I don't

know what to do. I'm trying to be very carefull with the food I give her ar home

and her teacher says that she is not eating anything different than the things

she brings from home. It was very scarry to see her throwing up so much...

She is not having any supplements because I don't know what I could give her

without the Doctor's intervention. We plan to take her to a DAN! doctor but it's

too expensive so we'll have to wait a wile for that.

Please, any advice would be very appreciated.

Thank you so much

Hi,

The vomit stopped last night and she is better today. I gave her chicken broth

for lunch and everything seems to be alright. She had that nut flour pizza with

danish havarti cheese I told you about in a recent message. After that she seems

more sensible to everything. Something I've noticed is that her cheeks are very

VERY pink today. I don't know if that can be a sign of allergy or just part of

last nigth reaction. Do you think she should be taking some supplements by now?

I wouldn't know wich one.

I'm still giving her 1/4 tsp of goat yogurt every day. Is that ok or should I

give her a little bit more? She was not casein free before the diet.

Thank you Patti for all your help. Beeing on this diet has been much easier

thanks to your advice.

I would not increase the yogurt until she's a few more days past this illness,

or whatever it was.

The very pink cheeks could be a slight sensitivity to a food. Did you use almond

flour? Some kids respond to almonds with red cheeks.... from the natural

salicylates in almonds. That's why we often recommend starting out with pecan

flour instead. It's okay.... not going to hurt anything... unless you notice

that she seems hyper or bothered in some other way.

I wouldn't be in a huge rush to add supplements. Maybe in a couple of weeks. In

the meantime, you could read up and research which ones you really want to

start. Maybe just a simple multiple..... like the Freeda SCD multiple..... and

maybe some magnesium. Take a look at the list on www.pecanbread.com under

" Supplements " .

Thanks once again!

I was giving her bread made with almond butter and I think she's not quite

ready for that. I'm going to try the pecan flour or should I make the pecan

butter? How?

Another question, is it safe to give her mild cheddar cheese or havarti

cheese?. In the book it says that they can be use freely and that's one of the

few foods she loves but I don't know if it is safe right now.

I need some more safe foods I can give her, specially to take to school. She

seems to have problem with textures too and doesn't like at all the applesauce

or the pearsauce. The only fruit she is eating now is bananas. So her food

choices are very limited now. she eats mostly eggs, chicken, beef, carrots,

green beans and bananas. That's why I was asking about the supplements but I

think I should wait until she gets better.

I'll look at the information about the supplements.

Thanks

Making the same recipe just substituting pecan butter for the almond flour is a

good idea. It's simple to make. Just buy plain raw pecans and whir them in a

food processor to get them as fine as you can..... add some mild flavored oil to

get a nut butter consistancy. If you don't add oil, it will be like a dry meal.

Use sunflower oil or grape seed oil (buy good quality health food store type....

expeller pressed)... those are healthy oils with very little flavor of their

own.

The cheddar or havarti should be fine, unless she is just not tolerating cheese

just yet. Everyone is different. Make sure your cheese is naturally aged

cheese.... 60 days or more of aging required.

Try the butternut squash fries.... recipe on www.pecanbread.com .

Don't worry.... she'll be okay for a few weeks without adding supplements.
