The SCD™ Beginners Guide
   

Why SCD™ Yoghurt is Important

  • The SCD™ corrects the balance of bacteria types in the gut by eliminating the food supply of the undesirable types and so starves them out. Introducing SCD™ yoghurt aids this process as it repopulates the gut with beneficial bacteria which further displaces the harmful bacterial.
  • SCD™ yoghurt is also very nutritious and contains proteins vitamins, minerals, amino acids, fats, and much more!
  • As the yogurt bacterial culture breaks down the lactose into simpler forms,
    we will absorb the simpler carbohydrate molecules instead of their feeding
    overgrowth of bacteria in the lower intestine.
  • Its is often claimed that we can get more good bacteria from taking commercial probiotics. This is not the case and yoghurt is a very low cost source of probiotics. 24hr SCD™ yoghurt has a concentration of 3 billion cfu/ml which means that in just a cup of Yoghurt (236ml) you'll get 708 Billion beneficial bacteria and that's about 50 times more than that claimed for a typical 15 billion capsule.
  • 24hr yoghurt also has a higher probiotic count than commercial yoghurt because it is fermented longer.
  • The bacteria in yoghurt are fresh and in the environment they grew in, contrast this to the bacteria in a capsule which will be dormant.
  • Because the cultures produce lactic acid from the lactose in the milk, many people who are lactose intolerant are able to tolerate yoghurt.
