I believe the diet is based on the Christian bible, and the book was written by a person with Chrons disease.

It sounds more like Celiac than Crohns. Let's face it, tons of people are misdiagnosed with Crohns when it is Celiac.

I would be wary of this guy. I was looking into his book and the supplements he sells (Garden of Life) and found this warning from the FTC concerning unsubstantiated claims and false claims of clinical proof.

I am looking into the SCD Diet and the book, Breaking the Vicious Cycle, by Elaine Gottschall. It seems to be more reputable.

Christine,

A number of us for whom gluten free only doesn't work, have had success with the SCD. There have been some recent threads you might want to check out.

We have that book. It is christian based and it is so interesting to see how his life changed. He is healthy now and I don't know if they misdiagnosed chrohns or not ..it would not surprise me.

Thanks, Corinne. I did see those threads, although I was looking for them again today and couldn't find them. What forum were they in? When I did a search on SCD an error came up - I guess initials are not allowed??

I read it. Its a good book and the method and diet saved the authors life. I can't do the diet it too many things I can't eat. I looked in the back index and couldn't find anything referencing celiac disease. There is something on IBS.

Was thinking of donating it to my local library so other people who might need it can get some help too.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By ButWhatCanIEat · Posted

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.
