Re: Matza

Ohhh, thanks for clarifying :). I hope he asks his rabbi to make sure that's okay.

Re: Matza

I know someone who told me he's going to eat Kneidlach... I don't understand this - since this person has permission to eat matzah to do the mitzvah both nights of the sedarim, so now he has blanket "permission" to go off the SCD diet and eat kneidlach too? For that matter, he'd might as ...

Re: CHEWING GUM

The sweeteners in gum are usually illegal. Sorry, I don't think there are any legal gums.

Re: Breastfeeding on the SCD diet

You could probably benefit greatly from a consult with a registered dietitian. (If insurance doesn't cover it, you probably just need one appointment.) She could work with you to figure out how many calories you need each day, and also which nutrients and foods you should make sure you're eating so ...

Re: Cocoa & Deli & Coffee

In case anyone read my original post above, I corrected it to state that cocoa is not legal. Just want to make sure I'm not misleading anyone because I originally made a mistake.

Re: Cocoa & Deli & Coffee

100% pure cocoa is not legal on regular SCD but is on the maintenance diet. I don't know of any legal cold cuts but would be curious if there are. Check the ingredients and you'll see that there's usually sugar. If it's not sugar, I think there can be other issues. Esther has said here before that c...

Need advice desperately

Lea, my daughter is 17 and has been on the diet for 1 1/4 years so far. There's no denying that it's so challenging to be on this diet as a teen - much more than as an adult - especially when everything in school and camp is about food. It requires a lot of strength and motivation. I don't know if y...

Mirilax - is it legal?

As far as I could see, Miralax did no harm to my daughter and it did help a lot. I'm aware that there are non-medically certified practitioners who prescribe natural supplements like magnesium, for example, and combinations of supplements most people have never heard of but those can also be dangero...

Mirilax - is it legal?

Yes, can you please post it here? My daughter's doctor had her on it for a long time and I'd like to know how it could be dangerous. Thanks!
