Guest guest Posted May 10, 2007 Report Share Posted May 10, 2007 Hi, It is a well known fact that many autistic children can not eat simple sugars including monosaccharides. But in the book 'Breaking the vicious cycle' it clearly states that people with leaky gut should be able to eat monosaccharides as they require no further splitting and are readily absorbed by the intestines. Then why autistic kids are not able eat even monosaccharides? If this inability is due to overgrowth of yeast, is it correct to say that the inflammatory bowel diseases for which specific carbohydrate diet was originally designed for have only bacterial overgrowth and no yeast problem? Can somebody explain to me? Savi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never heard of this before...where did you get this info? The DAN doctors who use SCD for autism report phenomenal success rates. http://www.pecanbread.com/new/aboutscd.html Yeast and bacteria live together in biofilms. If you starve out the bacteria then the yeast have difficulty surviving. When children with autism were given Vancomycen, an anti bacterial drug, there was a dramatic improvement. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=pubmed&cmd=Retrieve&dopt=Abstra\ ctPlus&list_uids=10921511&query_hl=2&itool=pubmed_docsum Please read this website, it will explain the important influence of bacteria for autism : http://www.microbialinfluence.com/ Mimi >But in the book 'Breaking the > vicious cycle' it clearly states that people with leaky gut should be > able to eat monosaccharides as they require no further splitting and > are readily absorbed by the intestines.

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 Well, isn't this acknowledged in SCD, as initially most cannot digest the advanced foods although they are in fact monosaccharides? - pecan post wrote: Hi Savi, > > It is a well known fact that many autistic children can not eat > simple sugars including monosaccharides.

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2007 Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 Hi , Not all the SCD legal foods are monosaccharides. Beans, for example contain resistant starch and that is why they should only be used at a later more advanced stage.

Guest guest Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 Yes, but carrots and other beginning foods are problematic for some and they are a monosaccharide, so it is true that kids with autism may not be able to digest a monosaccharide. I never saw where the statement in question came from... It is a well known fact that many autistic children can not eat > > simple sugars including monosaccharides. So I was just trying to offer an explanation. Where did this statement originate from in the first place? - pecan post wrote: Hi , Not all the SCD legal foods are monosaccharides.
