Mack,

The majority of children here have been transitioned fron the Gluten Free Diet

and most

are doing well because they now exclude harmful starches and sugars as well as

gluten.

Dairy is not mandatory but expecially the yogurt is helpful and many with

concerns find

their child can tolerate it. SCD does require strict compliance but as it

unfolds you will find

the food selection generous. Please read the BTVC book and study the recommended

web

sites throughly. It will help you to a good start.

Welcome and good luck!
