Really the best for SCD diet? The manufacturer's claims about fast preparation time (4.5 hours) and exclusive B. Bifidus recipe seem to contradict the SCD diet.

thanks for the dimmer switch tip. I read several posts from people complaining about overheating yogurt makers, so this is something worth trying while I am trying out the Yogourmet Multi that I bought today.

I own a similar yogurt maker by Salton that has been discontinued. It also ran hot. Since there's just a simple heating element in it, like a light bulb, I bought a plug-in dimmer switch like this -> Lutron TT-300H-WH Electronics Plug-In Lamp Dimmer, WhitePlug the yogurt maker into the dimmer and set the dimmer to about 75% of "full." By trial and error, this will cut the current to the yogurt maker and you can get your yogurt to 100-110 degrees F.

I was making yogurt myself until I found a Bulgarian yogurt that is incubated for 24 hours. They have a fat free version and I've switched to it . They are a company in Austin, Texas, that makes yogurt SCD way. It's worth buying for me and not jacking with the hassle of the yogurt maker anymore. Here is the info.White Mountain Pure Foods Companyhttp://www.whitemountainfoods.com/WhyEatYogurtMini.html

Their "regular" yogurt starter is SCD legal, but the CBA Probiotic is not. The 4.5 hrs. refers to normal yogurt making and not the SCD yogurt which takes 24 hrs.

The Yogurtmet maker is too hot for the SCD diet. I'd love to find one that keeps the temperature between 100-110 degrees. Any suggestions?
2029425
I think the manufacturer's information is instructions on how to make yogurt in general. To make SCD legal yogurt, you'd still follow the instructions from the SCD book (ie use commercial yogurt as a starter and leave it in the yogurt maker for at least 24 hours).

I saw your post about the yogourmet yogurt maker. I also want one I can use with the SCD . Have you found a more suitable one yet?

Dear Johnathan, Thank you for your interest in BodyBoost Colostrum. Please know that we only sell the highest quality and most natural product available. The raw colostrum from each dairy undergoes a testing protocol to assure it is from the first milking, free of antibiotics, pesticides and Bst's. We do not own the dairy farms but only deal with farmers that have excellent farming practices and very healthy cows. We asked the farmers to certify that pesticides and antibiotics are not part of their animals food supply and as well as Bst's and we verify this by testing the raw colostrum in our factory. We do not control the diets of these animals but our farmers need healthy cows to have a financially sound farm. The cows do graze most of the time but are fed a grain diet while they are being milked that is comprised of approximately 30% soybean meal with the balance being corn and oats. The cows need this to produce a healthy and good tasting milk. We purchase appox 14 liters out of the first milking of approx 18 liters, once a year from each cow that has a calf, which amounts to about one tenth of one percent of that cows milk. I am not aware of any dairy farmer that does not feed their cows grain during the milking process and the grain mixture used is based on research done by Universities that have Agricultural programs. Again I thank you for your interest hope this information allows you to enjoy the health benefits of BodyBoost Whole Colostrum. . Enjoy in good health, John

Are you aware that the lactic acid bacteria in yogurt cultures consume the lactose (milk sugar) in animal milk? So if one is simply trying to avoid lactose adding yogurt cultures to it and incubating for several hours will do it. Elaine Gottschall suggested 24 hour incubation, which I used to use, but subsequent discussion with Lucy Rosset (Lucy's Kitchen Shop) who had many conversations with Elaine before her death, convinced me to try 34 hours to allow the cultures to consume ALL the lactose.. I think the results are better -- firmer, more nearly solid yogurt starting with skim mild and 5 grams of Yogourmet yogurt starter per quart.

Greeting Neil. The synthetic version is not what you want.. The body does not function well or use Synthetics well.You want the form derived from Natto. An idea--- obtain natto yeast or starter material and make you own as i did. Obtain Chick peas - cook - cool - add natto 'yeast' and you have the same product that the natural form is made and sold to you in pill form. I still purchase the non-synthetic form which is a little bit more costly but well worth it. I have fun making my own. Much cheaper. Also--- contact "cultures' web site and obtain fermented food starters like cultured milk or sour kraut delicious alternatives to the pill and under your own control.Enjoy...L.H. Greeting Neil.

10 billion cells is correct. I strongly recommend keeping the box in the refrigerator to maintain the potency. Culturelle and Align are probably the two most recommended by everything I have read about the probiotic craze. Align has a higher cost with hardly every any discounts or coupons. Your best bet is on Amazon with the double box deal. One each morning will keep your gut on track! Even my Primary G.I. Doctor uses Culturelle.

I have done 3 buckets of comt using SCD probiotics K100 and all I got was mold. I reverting back to using my compost barrel...no mold in there and breaks down better. I really do not think the probiotics breaks down the meat/cheese so I am no longer using them and trust me I set up my system by the book. waste of money

It's best if refrigerated. I keep mine in the cool/dark medicine cabinet for 30 days, I refrigerate prior to that. 1 capsule has 535 mg ultimate flora blend 45 billion lactobacillus including lactobacillus acidophilus, lactobacillus rhamnosus, lactobacillus platarum, lactobacillus gasseri, lactobacillus casei, lactobacillus paracasei, lactobacillus salivarous, lactobacillus brevis. 5 billion lacto probiotic cultures including bifidobacterium lactis, bifidobacterium longum. For a total of 50 billion lacto/bifido cultures. And vegetable capsules.

Greetings Neil. Last(hope you are not bored with responses) obtain Keffer and make you own fermented milk. Have been using the same 'grains' for a year and they still work well. Takes about 8 hour to make setting on warm shelf near the celling in the room. Enjoy. L.H. Cultures For Health <customersupport@culturesforhealth.com>

I wish I could help with your question. The GNC nutritionist I spoke to told me take one 30 minutes before every meal. hmmm

im just a consumer who got this question mailed to me for some reason. i agree a major fault with buyers on amazon is that they dont bother to list the ingredients of a supplement on their sales page. as i have bought this stuff, i will say the dosages here are exactly the same as those found in megafoods b complex, except this is from a non-yeast source. the doses of these wholefood b vitamins are much more effective than the tar-derivative isolated b vitamins sold at much higher doses because these are coenzymated b vitamins.

No, this is the purest & best one I found/trust for my girls. If the ingredients aren't listed on amazon, check it out on vitacost.com. They list ingredients & honestly if order it from vitacost over amazon. Amazon doesn't cold pack it, vitacost does. Probiotics need to stay cold or they loose thier potency & live cultures. It's same price & free shipping if you order $49 worth of stuff, so bulk up if need & buy 2-3 at a time;) good luck

Thick-It instructions do say consume within 30 minutes for best results. I haven't tried using the thickened beverage more than an hour after preparation and it has worked. I find that I have to stir it up during the drinking process as the surface liquid is thinner that what is in the bottom of the glass. I just stir between drinks. This product is meeting our needs to help my husband swallow his morning pills which can take up to half an hour to complete.

I would recommend trying to find this locally in a health food store where its kept refrigerated. You're paying a premium to have it shipped cold as it should be. I would recommend a shelf stable brand SBO (like Prescript Assist) if your looking to effect bigger changes to the gut flora. Take it with some resistant starch.

You are right. I make my yogurt in a yogotherm (12 hours) then transfer to the Euro Cuisine for 18 hours. If I am not going to be home from work at the time it should be out, I just dump some of the liquid and it will be fine until I get home, It is in the refrigerator during this time anyway. I then put it in 1/2 pint jars, leaving room to add some Organic Maple syrup (adding a little unsweetened coconut is also good.) It is well worth the time it takes, and the result is such good nutritious yogurt.

I think the recommendation is 4-6 hrs, from the time the yogurt is heated and the bacteria/culture is added. I have the top tier and I regularly use it, it works fine for making a double batch of yogurt. I only use whole milk to make my yogurt though. People who have told me they use low fat or skim milks often complain the yogurt turns out runny. I believe in the industrial yogurt business they use gelatins and other thickening agents to make low fat yogurts. Happy yogurt making!
