I am about to start the SCD diet because there are raving reviews (~270) on Amazon about how it gets rid of all the symptoms of Celiac.

I was wondering if anyone here has tried it? I'm very excited.

I did it faithfully for about 11 months and then started adding regular foods back into my diet. It was the best thing I ever did, but it was also very challenging. I feel better than I have in 10 years! Good luck. Check my profile for some resources.

The book in question is Breaking the Vicious Cycle: Intestinal Health Through Diet by Elaine Gottshall.

There is a lengthy discussion of the SCD on this board here.

I didn't do SCD but did go grain free with great results. There were too many things I wasn't tolerant of in the SCD so I guess I modified it somewhat. For me going grain free has been enough. But there are people here who had great success on the diet.

Thanks! I am having great success so far with it... it makes perfect sense to me. About 3 days ago I was still feeling scratching and pain in my abdomen but now I am without pain! Still bloated, but I hope healing.

Here is an relevant, fascinating article: Open Original Shared Link "Whatever happened to the

cure for coeliac disease?"

      Thanks @Beverage for checking in!  I haven't changed the dogs' food yet.  I'm still working through some of the other issues that I need to remedy (transitioning to an anti-inflammatory diet, being sure to get only gluten-free certified items, and buying some new cookware for my kitchen).  Somewhere after that, I have on my list to try out the dogs on a new dog food, but I haven't gotten there yet.  In the meantime, though, I can definitely see that some of my worst days seem to follow when there's a possibility of gluten cross-contamination (I'm still working to cut waaay down on these instances) OR when I eat anything with dairy/ milk protein in it.  So I think I need to really get a better handle on my day-to-day eating habits to reduce all gluten cross-contamination into my food and also any dairy intake, and then at that point, I think I'll start moving over to the dog food thing.

      Sounds like fun, and I was in Germany a few years ago so you might find these articles helpful:

      I just want to mention that we summarize the latest research on refractory celiac disease here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/refractory-celiac-disease-collagenous-sprue/

      I don't think you have the URL/site address correct, as there is nothing at that site.

      Hello All I am traveling to Germany in October and will be in Berlin, Rothenburg ODT , Salzburg, Fussen and Munich.  I am also driving the northern part of the romantic road with stops in some of the smaller towns along the way.  I would really appreciate any recommendations for gluten-free friendly places, restaurants and any gluten-free beer gardens.  Thanks in advance, Laura
