young adult

[Guest guest]

I am trying my 20 year old daughter on this diet....mostly eliminating bread and

pasta right now as she seems addicted to these. Has anybody had success with a

young adult on this diet?

Hi Patty,

SCD is not a " mostly " diet. It requires strict adherance/compliance for

best results.

Our list owner has older children on SCD and they do very well when

they observe the selection of legal foods and avoid what is restricted.

This is difficult to enforce with older children and young adults. Try

to enlist her full cooperation.

I was at a conference last month. Some of the presenters were from

Hopewell Associates, who work with both children and adults. (I

consult with Pam Ferro whose son's Isaiah's story is in BTVC.) They

say that they have wonderful results with adults - maybe not

the " miraculous " results seen with the younger children - but

depending on the condition of the person there are usually

improvements.

I, myself, have been on the diet (with occaissional drops off the

wagon) but even with those there had been improvement. If nothing

else the mood swings have lessened immensely. And when I have fallen

of the wagon, the reactions to the 'illegals' are not to the extent

they were before.

They also said the healing process was usually longer for adults, and

to try the diet for at least 3 months to see what improvements you do

get.
