SCD and Paleo Diet...what's the difference?

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

It's been a while since we've been to Pecanbread since we had some oxalate

issues and tried some alternatives, but now we are looking at SCD again. At any

rate, during my search for a diet that would work for my son, I came across the

Paleo Diet. I see a lot of similarities. Am I wrong or is SCD just a hardcore

version of the Paleo Diet? Does anyone know the differences and/or disadvantages

to one over the other? I'm really trying to do the right thing for my son.

Thanks in advance.

Hi ,

You are right; the Paleo Diet and SCD are very similar. SCD is better

for people with IBD or ASD.

The advantages of SCD are the following:

It is easier on a damaged GI tract. One example is that SCD recommends

only cooked veggies and fruit. Many folks with IBD cannot tolerate raw

produce.

The emphasis of SCD is on eliminating gut bugs. The latest research

shows that most of the symptoms of Autism can be induced by LPS, a

bacterial toxin.

ASD children are very EXTREMELY vulnerable to LPS for the following reasons:

1 Children with ASD have incredibly high levels of LPS. Rosseneu found

that 94% of 80 children with regressive autism and chronic

constipation/diarrhea had approximately 10,000-fold higher than normal

levels of E. coli in their stool.[6]( E. coli are gram negative

bacteria that have LPS. )

2 Results of scientific investigation indicate that most ASD children

produce an excessive, innate immune response to LPS. [7]. Scientists

have found that the immune responses to LPS are more harmful than the

bacterial toxin itself.[3]

On this list we had a mother named Antoinette. She had implemented

the Paleo diet prior to SCD. She reported much better results with SCD

for the following two reasons: the emphasis on strictness and the SCD

goat yogurt.

Here is a website that explains how bacterial toxins may induce autism:

Mimi,

You said: " You are right; the Paleo Diet and SCD are very similar...... "

I wish that you had been around when I showed up 18 months ago and was

being attacked for this very conparison! I thank you for telling this

lady about SCD and paleo connection! I was once told to leave to

Healing Crow for doing this....and was even put on moderated status. I

forgive....This is awsome that Pecan Bread is turning around for the

better.

SCD works because ELIANE knew how to end gut disbiosis (bad gut

bugs)...GOD BLESS HER FOREVER for her work!
