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.

      Going Low-Gluten May Harm Good Gut Bacteria, Researchers Warn

      It's like a double edged sword.......we do one thing to improve a problem and cause another problem. I'd like to think the ultimate cure might be something that would train or modify the body to prevent the damage that gluten causes.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      You might try Heallix. It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball. It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again, not in your eyes or ears.

But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Ginger38 · Posted

      Thanks, I’m still dealing with the pain and tingling and itching and feeling like bugs or something crawling around on my face and scalp. It’s been a miserable experience. I saw my eye doc last week, the eye itself was okay, so they didn’t do anything. I did take a 7 day course of an antiviral. I’m hoping for a turnaround soon! My life is full of stress but I have been on / off the gluten free diet for the last year , after being talked into going back on gluten to have a biopsy, that looked okay. But I do have positive antibody levels that have been responsive  to a gluten free diet. I can’t help but wonder if the last year has caused all this.

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
