Guest guest Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 I'm a UK member and have never posted on this group before although I read your daily digests with interest. My daughter has UC and has been following SCD for a while. A friend of hers also has UC but has never bothered with diet - she's managed to cope with whatever medication she is on (but not sure what that is). This friend is getting married in 3 weeks and has just started a flare. She's asked for advice on diet to see if it will help calm things down before the wedding. Obviously starting SCD now is probably not the best idea. My feeling would be to try and cut out the obvious foods such as wheat, rice, potatoes etc and try to stick to easily digestible foods such as soups and stewed apples to give the gut a break. She is apparently quite thin already and doesn't want to lose any weight because it will affect the fit of her wedding dress. Although I know it's not the advice you would normally give but would you think that supplementing with elemental style drinks would be an idea to prevent further weight loss? Any suggestions would be gratefully received. Clare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
