Specific Carbohydrate Diet?

Question

Will the SCD(Specific Carbohydrate Diet) diet improve my self even if I don't have gut problems(Crohns Disease and other diseases)? Should I go on it, I'm 17 years old male?

I was recently diagnosed with asbergurs(a kind of autism), but I have no signs of diaherrea (I don't know how you spell it) or throwing up.

I am NOT trying to lose weight.

Answer 1

I see nothing wrong with this diet as far as I can read on the website. It is a very good balanced food plan that you can live with for life.

Those with Crohnes disease are really in a spot as far as how to eat.

Not all DIETS are for weight loss, a lot are for health improvement.

So go get the book and do this thing. If it isn't really what you wanted, you can modify it as you don't have the digestive diseases it is set up to solve.

Answer 2

The theory behind that diet is a good one.  The only problem for you would be that you'd be limiting yourself unnecessarily.

Am I correct in assuming that you believe that better nutrients will result in better brain function for you?

If the answer is 'yes,' I can advocate a better diet for you.  The diet that has the most brain nutrients is a RAW diet.  If you start eating tons of raw fruits and vegetables in addition to what you already eat, you'll be getting many more vitamins in an easily-absorbable form.

Do a search on 'raw food.'

Last but not least - eat more raw walnuts and raw green leaves; they're great for the brain.

Answer 3
