Guest guest Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 Could someone please explain why chestnut flour is illegal, but chestnuts are ok on the scdiet? Has anyone found after being on scd for a few years that they can tolerate certain illegals?

The commercial processing can result in unwanted, indigestible starch. A bit off the path: I cannot use Bob's Red Mill Almond Flour. It gave me a reaction. When I contacted the company they admitted they process the nuts on machinery used for rice and grain. They clean the machinery and toss the first 50 pounds of almond flour, but that didn't seem to be understood by my tummy and I always react badly to the product and use another brand. celiacs seem more sensitive to timy amounts of starch than sugar, at least that has been my personal experience.
