Guest guest Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Hello all. I have been reading for weeks trying to gather as much info as possible. I have a 7yo son who has autism and is high functioning. At the recommendation of his Dr. we are trying the SCD diet because Nicky's (my son) diet is really poor and filled mostly with carbs. I have read BTVC and lots of the links and posts and am a little confused. Question 1. from reading I got the impression the intro diet is for people who have been GFCF and have had diahrea problems. Is that correct or is it more to help first starve what shouldn't be in the gut so healing will take place most efficiently? Nicky has always been more constipated or going every 3 to 4 days but still very soft. I started the diet but did not really follow intro and made other recipes that I could sub for old foods. Am I wrong or prolonging the healing the gut by doing that? Tests recently came back with very high yeast issues. I am doing this to try to have some foods in there because he is such a big macaroni, pizza, bread, cereal eater. I am trying to make sure I do as much while school is out till 1/3/06 so that I have die off and transitioning issues at home before school starts up. 2. Any suggestions on packed lunches for school? I still don't know how I will pull this off. I know some of these questions may seem elementary, but I want to do make sure I'm not jumping the gun so to speak and in the meantime not allowing him to heal. Please any and all info will be appreciated. Sorry so long. , new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
