Re: Anyone not doing nuts/seeds?

[Guest guest]

le,

Nuts were not mentioned in the original SCD as written by Dr. Haas.

Nuts can be difficult to digest at first and some people have definite

allergies to both tree nuts and peanuts, which are actually a legume.

There are other acceptable sources for desserts and treats on SCD that

are nut free.

Nut butter is the most easily tolerated form of nuts, followed by

ground nuts (nut flour) while whole nuts or nut pieces are advanced

foods and more difficult to digest.

Some children are able to tolerate nuts after doing SCD for several

months. I think that avoiding nuts in the early months of the diet

might bring quicker results with SCD

for many of our kids.
