Re: How to handle phenol, oxalate and other sensitive on SCD

Lots of kids start SCD with similar sensitivities. You certainly don't have to

feed her any food that triggers an obvious negative reaction. What usually

happens is that over time on SCD, sensitivities diminish and the kids are able

to eat foods that once caused problems. This will take time, though.... it is

all hinged on healing up that leaky gut.

Many families start SCD casein free.... and we suggest waiting a few months,

then introducing SCD goat yogurt, in VERY small quantities and increasing

gradually. You can stay entirely casein free if you want to, though.

If you're concerned about the oxalate issues, I urge you to read

Tamaro's research paper on Vitamin K... http://gutresearch.com/v1.html

There is a lot more to this issue than just avoiding oxalates. In fact, I just

read that there is some evidence that sticking to low oxalate foods actually

triggers the liver to produce MORE oxalates. The whole issue might actually have

more to do with calcium management. Anyway.... go read her paper, if you haven't

already... and there is more info at her Vitamin K list:

How to handle phenol, oxalate and other sensitive on SCD

Hi,

My daughter has phenol, oxalate, casein and other issues.

When she eats food that are slightly high in these, she develops rashes

and tantrum soar.

Question:

1. Do I introduce a food that is high in the above? Introducing each

food slowly, of course. Or do I avoid all those food and introduce

only " safe " food? Which is extremely little.

2. When I introduce and food and she develops a rash, do I back off

that food or continue giving?

3. When I give a food and she is gassy, do I continue?

4. Did anyone use No-Fenol or similar enzymes? My daughter doesn't

tolerate it and I was wondering if there is another similar one out

there.

Anyone with experience handling these sensitivities, please share. Do

tese go away after on SCD?

Thank you in advance.
