Re: Please Help!

to the OP. greek yogurt is absolutely not part of the SCD. read the book carefully. elaine was very clear as to why and how to make the yogurt. greek yogurt, or any other commercial dairy that is not fermented properly can absolutely cause your symptoms. you may have to eliminate all dairy to get results. also suspect in mucous are any grains or grain products, any legumes, and dairy. if you are new to the diet, mucous can also be a cleansing reaction at first. if it happens consistently over a long period of time, then it is likely not a cleansing reaction. when i first started, i passed a lot of mucous during colonics, and then eventually came to realize which foods were causing it. the culprits were, not surprisingly, flour and dairy.

i am not advocating this, but recently i made fresh buttermilk from raw milk, basically just letting raw milk sit at room temp for a few days. i found this to be the best tolerated dairy i have ever tried.

to heal the bleeding, i have heard that fresh cabbage juice is one of the best remedies. not sure if it is allowed on the scd or not.
