I would second that for people dealing with SCD for autism. People who

are on SCD for IBDs may well find Digestive Wellness quite helpful, but I

see from the last 2 weeks that SCD for autism is very different.

Like I said, for people with IBDs on the diet, they may find DW and other

prepared foods lifesavers. My son started SCD after a few weeks of

prednisone, and no more diarrhea (relatively mild to start; he had

arthritic symptoms and anemia, primarily). Since he had no more symptoms,

and was on prednisone, so he was really hungry, we started SCD at a

fairly accelerated pace.

Take care, Fay (mother of 13 y.o. on SCD for 6 weeks, dx with Crohn's 3

months ago)
