Questions From An Scd Newbie

Hello Everyone,

This is only my second time posting on the forum, so sorry if I'm not doing it right!

I was diagnosed with celiac in September 2008 (positive blood tests and biopsy) and have been gluten free since then. My gastro symptoms have really not gotten noticeably better at all, so I've decided to try SCD to see if things improve. I just have a couple of questions for all of you SCD pros out there:

1. I was so excited to try my SCD yogurt this morning when it was ready and was a bit surprised at how tart it was---so much so that i'm having trouble eatng it. Anyone else experience this? Any way to make it less tart without adding a lot of stuff? Also, it was a little runnier than I'm used to with yogurt. I made this batch with 2% milk--would using whole milk or 1/2 and 1/2 help?

2. I take a daily medication for anxiety, and I'm wondering if I need to be concerned about starch that might be in it--I'm taking Freeda multivitamin and calcium, and I know those are ok, but wondering about this one.....

3. After doing the intro diet for a few days, how long should I be taking to introduce other "legal" foods? I've read Breaking the Vicious Cycle, but it's not entirely clear.....I don't want to jump into certain foods too soon...

4. I was diagnosed last month with osteopenia--this isn't specifically related to SCD, but does anyone know if I should be taken a calcium supplement that also has magnesium (I think I've read something about needing magnesium for maximum absorption...is it enough if there is magnesium in my multi)?

Thanks so much for any advice!!

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.
