Re: OT-Advice for a family of beginners

The GAPS book is much more comprehensive for ASD population, it addresses issues

like toxcity, chemical sensitivity, and even education.

GAPS book recommends SCD, but she also recommends things that Elaine

disapproved of. So caution please everyone. Read your BTVC book first to see

where the changes occur and then question everything first before trusting it.

The SCD TM diet doesn't work that well when we change even small things like the

probiotics. It looses it's integrity.

Hope this helps to clarify things for the new comer,

All those are valid topics. They sure are relevant to me. I have MCS but I

discuss it on

another excellent Canadian list dedicated to MCS or would gladly help anyone via

email if

required. I'm here to speak and learn about SCD. I also am an avid dog lover

(mine are

SCD compliant) but am not going to suggest you read Stanley Coren's book on The

Intelligence of Dogs.

My time is limited. My personal priorities are finding great ways and recipes to

help in

implementing the diet. I am also a writer who likes to write about SCD. I am

also a person

who finds being pro active and speaking up about what I believe in makes me feel

good

and mentally clear. My tummy appreciates that point of view but I know many

people may

not. In this respect, I may be siding with . It is said of me " Carol

shoots from the

hip, but she shoots straight. "

Dr. NC's book is an SCD book and related topics, like you said you discussed

with Elaine (MCS) , that's one of the reasons why I wanted your take on it.

Elaine never heard of MCS and was amazed when she observed some of my reactions

to

stuff that's in most hosueholds. MCS is a whole other topic.

I process those issues at:

MCS-Canadiansources@...

That doctors' book is a commentary on Elaine's work, not an SCD book. BTVC is

an SCD

book. Lucy's Cookbook is an SCD Book. Grain-Free Gourmet is a cookbook with

suitable

recipes and tips on SCD but suitable for others on special diets who have the

same

restrictions. Raman Prasad's book is an SCD book. These books were done in

consultation

with Elaine or were submitted for her approval.

At the DAN in 2003 just about everyone praised Elaine and her work and applauded

her

but most of them were not SCD.
