Re: A question ...Don't kill me..long

Hi ,

Nobody has been killed yet for posting a question. Perhaps some

slight flesh wounds ... (that's a joke).

The diet was not originally written for ASD -- it was written for

bowel disease, and I have ABSOLUTELY no doubt that it will help your

son's stools.

Give it a try for a good 3 - 4 months anyway, and you will see.

It's a beautiful, healthy way of eating.

Welcome! There's a great bunch of gals here so feel free to ask away!

Our DS is not ASD. He has had some pretty bad behavior problems that

wer believed were related to food allergies. After taking out more and

more food choices we decided to try SCD in attempt to heal his gut and

so far so good! We've been on the diet for 4 months with the thought

that we'd do 6 months. He's doing so well lately, I think we'll

probably go a year before testing nonSCD food!

We didn't see any consistent results until recently, but one month may

be enough for you guys to see how it will go and then you can decide

it you want to keep going.

It's definately worth a try and I'm sure it would help the whole family

,

my son was the same situation as yours three years ago. There were

really no reasons known for the runny stools accept we thought

colostridia, a few times. We were on Dan and the runny stools got

worse. antibiotics,diflucan, etc etc. Then after a year of Dan trying

to figure out what the heck to do, I was told by a Dan doctor that

had over a 1000 kids that were autistic that he was one out of two

kids in his practice he jsut could not figure out. So about that time

is when we switched hears to homeotoxicology because our kids are so

darn toxic they need help to get this stuff out. Its energetic

medicine and has done wonders for hundreds maybe more. We also took

rice and potatos out of his diet and saw an immediate change in

stools. Kept detoxing and within a few months runny stools no more.

The answer to your q about the diet/ Yes I do think it will help. But

remember in my opinion these kids need more thatn just diet and it is

not drugs. Imodium is just surpressing what needs to come out of the

body. Your treating the symptom. The key is to get to the core. The

cause of the problem for pure health and vital energy. Energetic

medicine works. Go to homeodetox-talk on egroups for more

information. I do believe diet is one of the major pieces of the

puzzle in recovery but like I said these kids need more help. There

bodys cant function properly with out it.Peel the layers away and

eventually the body will function on its own. If you go to the group

ask for info on reading first to get you started and read the

archives and ask questions. people are real nice there. There are

moms with reconvered kids that have dabbles in the stuff for years.

Do you think it would behoove me to get him allergy tested? I hate

to put him through any more stuff..

Also my oldest son is ADHD and some SID, also I have noticed that he

has a fine bright red rash just above his eyebrows lots of the time,

and it seems to be showing up where he would have sidburns as well..

could different foods be causing this? We did do Feingold for a

while and i found that he is reacting to OJ, RED dyes and possibly

apples which he loves..

Actually

I lost 20 lbs without even trying on SCD. I eat as much fat as I

want, as long as it's legal, that is!

I find that I don't have the carb cravings I did preSCD and I get full

faster so I eat less. I don't feel deprived as long as I can have my

smoothies and cheesecake every once in awhile.

Ideally, I'd like to lose another 20 but I don't feel as pressured

now. I think with exercise and SCD I'll get to what I'm supposed to

weight. I'm pretty happy where I am right now actually and I've been

struggling with my weight all my life.

Good luck!

Well, most regular allergy tests won't find the kind of sensitivities

and behavioral reactions that alot of us find in our kids. It's much

easier on the kids and cheaper for you if you keep a diet diary and

note what the kids eat and what kind of behavior you see.

Alot of moms see bright, red cheeks when there's a sensitivity to

casein or salicylates (we're doing Feingold here too.) Again, the

diet diary would help you pinpoint a little better. Plus if you start

the intro and add new foods in really slowly you'll be able to tell

very easily which foods are causing what behaviors.

Good luck

<<has anyone lost weight on this diet.. that needed to?>>

Yes...... I've been eating *mostly* SCD.... about 95%.... along with Katera for

about a year and in that time, have lost 25 of the 50 I needed to lose. I am

sure that I need to exercise more to get the rest off.... but am glad it's going

nice and slow. I've lost weight quickly before... only to have it come right

back.

My husband lost 50 lbs and I put back on about 40 lbs (I was very

underweight).
