dunno did you check 'starch content of foods' on the front page of diet forum? as far as i know [im allergic so i dont pay attention] blanched almonds and certain brands of walnuts and certain pine nuts have been reported as starch free. look for a thread here titled 'walnuts vs almonds' or vice versa. it was posted by drizzit w/in past 3-4 mos. it may or may not be helpful.

im pretty sure sunflower seeds [at least in usa] are starchy. coconut 'can' be too, but sometimes not. unsure of anything else on your list.

Awh, thanks ever so much for replying. I know this elimination process can be wearisome, I went through similar when i was sorting out my ketogenic diet
I do not like carbs, neither starch or suar, all of them concern me. Soon i am going to fast. This will help me keep off both
I used to fast a fair bit in the past but i have not been doing so as much lately. I have no idea why my enthusiasm has wained but i do know fasting is nowhere near as bad when i do it, as I percieve it is going to be
I will check my sunflower seeds and coconut with iodine
Again thank you
Love joanne

I did check it, but our KickAS list shows coconut as safe where other sites show coconut as high starch. I'm allergic to almonds, but I love walnuts and pecans. I just found another site that shows pecans as having less starch than walnuts. Maybe my doctor can shed some light on this? I'll ask when I see her in September!

erica.. are you testing anything w/ iodine? it turns black when starch is present. do Not eat the iodine!! do you have carol sinclairs book? if you are going to give the Nsd a go iodine testing is crucial. otherwise your gonna have a headache over this diet for no reason and possibly no results b/c youll unknowingly be eating starch. im just trying to help girl good luck
