Yeah, leave out the plantains though.

Phase II update

A few have inquired as to how I’m doing in “Phase II” since I talked about my experience roughly a year ago. Long story short, I’m pretty much back on the SCD. Allow me to clarify. Remember what the BTVC book says about “fanatical adherence”? In that sense, I am no longer doing the SCD as I allow myself to digress about ten percent of the time.
If you have Crohn’s disease, it probably affects your ileum, and you’ve probably learned that you are at risk of vitamin B12 deficiency. If this is news to you, take a moment to read up. I used to take B12 shots which were effective, but when I leaned that they contained aluminum I sought out a metal-free alternative.
