Guest guest Posted September 17, 2005 Report Share Posted September 17, 2005 Hi a, I never heard Elaine discuss this book. I vaguely remember that the theory was formulated by the author's father a long time ago before they had too many toxins. Please correct me if I am wrong. The number of children with bowel problems and/or ASD has increased dramatically. Something else besides blood type or heredity is causing this:toxins are the culprit,they inhibit the enzymes that digest starch. A long time ago,there might have been a possibility that blood types would have given us clues but today we are so contaminated with toxins that we have to pay attention to the damage caused by heavy metals. Most ASD children get results with SCD if the diet is done correctly. Parents who are not getting good results should examine if their kids are sneaking food. An important resource is SCD counseling. So many parents who claim that they are doing the diet 100% are making mistakes. I also made mistakes in the beginning: gave my kids plantains(SCD illegal!). http://www.pecanbread.com/SCD_Solutions.html Mimi > Mimi, > I wonder what Elaine would have to say about the 'eat right for your > blood type' diet?
