good for you, missk. Diet mod. is working for me also but I can't eat as many (yummy) foods as you can so enjoy. I hope someday I can have a bit of fruit again. I made almond flour pancakes and bacon for dinner the other night, FABulous. My husband asked when we could have it again lol.

Like you I take turmeric (actually curcumin) every day and have a curry dinner once a week also.

My diet is working very well too! I'm glad to hear that others have noticed a big difference after removing certain foods. I've grown to like it so much and I feel so good that I am not even tempted to cheat.  The recipes from scddietrecipe.com have made it so easy to eat healthy. We spend a bit more on groceries, but we are still spending less than we did when ate out a few times/week.  Also, my husband has lost some weight and is thankful for the delicious homemade meals every night. I've learned to pack food to bring to work any place I think I will have trouble finding "safe" food.  I'n not using the canasa anymore-no problems so far!  My exercise routine is going well--I make sure i eat enough carbs from fruit/juices before I exercise longer than 40 min.  I have also found a protein powder called plant fusion--just ordered it on amazon so I'm not sure how it tastes-- its dairy free, soy free, wheat and gluten free!  I'm happy that your diet is working for you! Thanks for posting.

Do you know what the protein powder plant fusion is made from ironwomen? I used to take whey protein but since starting the SCD diet I have stopped it. I am looking for another powder and am considering Gemma (pea) protein or Beef isolate.

Plant Fusion has pea protein, artichoke protein and brown rice protein. I know the brown rice is not legal on scd, but i am willing to try it once to see how I do. I know I cannot have dairy at all----horrible!! So, i needed something dairy free for sure! I will only use this as a recovery shake after a long bike or run---(usually twice/week). The rest of the time, I eat egg whites daily and use a tsp. of L-glutamine powder in 100%apple juice after a workout. I found info. for Plant Fusion Protein on gluten free fitness. They have reviews and nutrition facts about many different gluten free/dairy/soy/wheat free proteins.
