Diet for IBD

Has anyone tried the Specific Carbohydrate diet? If so, thoughts? Success?

  1. Hi ! Thanks for reaching out. I haven't tried this diet, so I hope some others will weigh in with their experiences. But in the meantime, here are some responses/experiences others have posted in another forum regarding the SCD: https://inflammatoryboweldisease.net/forums/specific-carbohydrate-diet-results - Pam (team member)

    1. Yes, I did follow a carbohydrate diet plan, but it was bad for my health. My cholesterol level goes up too much. So I stopped eating that way.

      1. Thanks for sharing! You are so right that all diets are not right for all people. What kinds of foods do you eat now? -Eshani (IBD Team Member)

    2. I do prefer veggies

      1. I like veggies too! As I start to feel better I am usually able to eat more of them. I'm also doing a lot of fruit right now, like watermelon. -Eshani (IBD Team Member)
