Hi I am following the SCD and doing very well but seems with my increased protein consumption I have become constipated. I am hoping this will agjust in a few days but was wondering what I can take to ease the problem. I do drinks tons of water too. I have a supplement call fibersmart that is gluten free but the SCD says no FOS and that has it. I also just love this product called teeccino a coffee substuite it says it is gluten free when brewed but it does contain barley. I have never had problems with this one before but now I am 100% gluten free I don't want to take my chances. Any one use teeccino? Or suggest anythigng else?

Hi, I am interested in this SCD diet too. Still need to look at the book. I eat a modified version I think, though I probably eat more winter squash than they would allow. I finally went off yams and sweet potatoes. However I don't eat fruit (due to candida overgrowth complications) so I think it may even out... I get non fat organic yogurt from Trader Joe's...rather than make my own so far. Have not noticed it bothering me.

Barley has gluten in it, being part of the wheat family. If you have celiac, you should avoid it.

Let me know how your SCD diet goes. Am interested.

      Hi everyone I'm James, I hope you are all feeling well??. Accidentally had gluten at weekend and I've had severe diarrhea since sat night. My question is ,the longer someone like myself has been following a strict gluten-free diet will the exposure to gluten be lot more extreme as body now has been free of it well over a year ? Any information be much appreciated and any tips on how to stop the constant diarrhoea I have currently also be appreciated guys x

      I use Listerine.  Rinse first to soften the tarter, then brush with Oral B electric toothbrush super sonic.  The $15 ones at the supermarket.  At 73 I still have all my teeth.  While a blood test can measure iodine levels, it's not the most accurate method for assessing iodine status, and urinary iodine excretion is considered a better indicator.  Have any of your dermatologists ever done a biopsy for dermatitis herpetiformis?  I may have missed it.  Note the similarity of Casal's necklace to one of your symptoms. Pellagra rash is a characteristic skin manifestation of niacin (vitamin B3) deficiency. It typically presents as:  Erythema: Red, sunburned-like areas of skin, often on the face, neck, arms, and legs.  Scaliness: Dry, flaky skin that may become thickened and crusty.  Hyperpigmentation: Darkened patches of skin, particularly in sun-exposed areas.  Casal's necklace: A dark, pigmented band around the neck.  I am currently taking these} Vitamin D 10,000 IU (250 mcg) DHEA 100 mg 500 mcg Iodine  10 drops of Liquid Iodine B1 Thiamin 250 mg  B2 Riboflavin 100 mg B3 Nicotinic Acid 500 mg 4 times a day for hyperlipidemia. B5 Pantothenice Acid 500 mg Vitamin C 500 mg     Selenium 200 mcg  Several times a week

      I will. Thanks. I did just have mg B12 drawn. I should also state that I am already taking a Vit D supplement, as I live in the US in New England sand just about everyone who lives here is deficient, esp during our winters with less exposure to natural sunlight. I was also taking a chewable bariatric vitamin as well because of my food issues related to my cancer treatment (which was many years ago, but there are long term effects.) I just stopped it because I was unable to get any gluten information about it. And it did contain iodine. Is there even a vitamin that doesn’t? I don’t know, but I will check. I also take Calcium and Magnesium in the form of “Rolaids” for leg cramps/spasms, with good effects. Thanks.
