Do you ever lose track of what kinds of cheese are okay to eat on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet? I made this infographic to help you keep track of what kinds of cheese you can eat whenever you want, what kinds are for once in a while, and what kinds you should avoid altogether.

Would you be ok, if I posted this on the SCD facebook group I am a member of?
Thanks

Yes, please share as much as you want.
Chart has been updated.
I see that Parmesan is on two lists, “eat freely”, and “eat occasionally”. Is there a mistake? Not sure how to interpret this. Also, what about goat cheese?
Yes, this is a mistake. It should be eat freely. I need to make a correction to the chart. Goat cheese is not allowed.
The Legal/Illegal list on the Breaking the Vicious Cycle website indicates that Gruyere is legal (http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info/legal/listing/G/), but here it is listed as a cheese to avoid? Just want to make sure I don’t accidentally consume something I shouldn’t be!
My version of Breaking the Vicious Cycle book says Guyere is illegal, so there is a discrepancy there – I have the 7th edition from 1999. I’m surprised the website doesn’t say anything about it since it is listed as illegal in the book – or at least the earlier editions. I’m hoping someone with a later edition can let me know if the list was updated in the books.
