Re: 10-day colitis cure???

[Guest guest]

I didn't add in there, that I have been on very strict SCD for over a yera, and

haven't gotten past level 2!!! Also, have had recent problem with flares, very

frustrating.

I looked at it -- thought if they had a cheap Kindle copy I'd scan it and

give you my opinion on it. Unfortunately, the Kindle edition is the same

$20 as the hard copy. And I'm not willing to waste 20 bucks for a

book review.

You want blunt? I battled gut issues for 25 years. I tried every

" miracle cure " there was. None of them worked.

We all want it quick, because we feel lousy and we want to feel better

really soon now. Healing doesn't work that way.

SCD works. It takes time. But it works.

Are you keeping a food diary?

I know, I am being desperate. Thanks for your words, with tears in my eyes. I

am tired of it, want a quick fix. Will keep the food diary.

Thanks,

Really the book doesn't have stages. I could not have followed them

(a lot of people do though). Have you thought of going through the

book and just seeing what looks good to you? For some reason, that

approach worked better than just guessing.

I haven't read it but I went to amazon and looked at some of the pages.

Honestly? It looks very similar to SCD. The recipes they showed were all SCD

save for one that added Bragg's. They mentioned probiotics and anti-yeast. It

looks like it might say a little something about food combining though from what

little I saw it seems to be the opposite of every other food combining rule I've

read. There doesn't seem to be much in the way of science behind it (at least

in as much as I could read). I'm not going to recommend one way or the other

especially since I haven't read it but I just thought I'd share what I saw with

you.
