Gut bacteria, obesity

[Guest guest]

Although I wasn't obese before I started SCD, but a little overweight, I had for

years omitted the more caloric fruits. Since beginning SCD,

I am eating lots more calories, having added in those fruits that I missed, to

compensate for giving up grain. And I'm eating lots more

aged cheese and oily salad dressings. I have not only not gained weight, I

have lost a few pounds. So on the basis of my experience, I'd have to say

there is definitely some validity to that theory. One more reason to pay a lot

of attention to the gut climate.
