My best friend, his family had to switch their diet because their son had Crohn's. The doctors wanted to take out part of his 8 year-old intestine and put him on antibiotics for the rest of his life. The did the SCD (Specific Carbohydrate) diet which allows for some less inflammatory starches and emphasizes homemade yogurt to build up the gut flora. The son went into remission so now Stanford is recommending the diet. But he also reported to me, no new cavities in their family for 12 years.

The most interesting thing about Price is he studies people from all over the world. They all have different diet, but they live on their native diet. No modern foods such as white flour and sugar. The minute those things are introduced, the children born in the same family show degeneration. Seems like lots of ocean foods are necessary. That's easy for me, but all the organ meats are a little tough.

Let me know what you think
