 Email and Internet tips
This is
the list is now powered by Yahoo Groups and replaced the "Long
Island" list in October 2007. The Long Island list provided
most of the information and discussion that is archived on
this site (scdiet.org).
With the advent of the self-archiving Yahoo! groups, additions
to this site are made as provided by via the Feedback
link. Gay
is a member of several SCD lists (and manages one as well!),
and is a frequent source for updates found on scdiet.org.
The BTVC-SCD
group is a very active mailing list for group discussion of
the "Specific Carbohydrate Diet" (SCD), which was developed
by Elaine Gottschall for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
The diet is very useful as an adjunct to conventional medical
treatments for IBD and has helped many people achieve stable
health once more. The BTVC-SCD mailing list is a place where
those that have not found answers on other diets, but wish
to discuss the "Specific Carbohydrate Diet" can exchange
recipes and share ideas about how to cope with Ulcerative
Colitis and Crohn's in conjunction with this particular diet.
This list is managed by Marilyn L. Alm. More Yahoo groups
are listed farther down this page.

Groups and Lists |
Yahoo!
Groups are email and web browser-based online support groups.
They are quite flexible and have online search tools through
their own archives. There are quite a few SCD-related Yahoo!
Groups. Write us if
we missed one!
The SCDietKids
group is "a list for the parents of children who are
attempting to impliment the Specific Carbohydrate Diet, from
Elaine Gottshall's book "Breaking The Vicious Cycle".
In an attempt to starve out yeast, heal the gut and rebuild
our childrens health." One nice aspect of this community
is that it is part of the Yahoo! Groups, and is therefore
accessible by email or you can read it and search its archives
via your Internet browser. This list was managed by Mimi and
Laurie and new activity appears to have stopped in 2009.

The St.
John's IBD-Diet mailing list was for an exchange of ideas
for members of the medical profession, microbiologists, regular
folks, etc... and not specifically the SCD, but addresses
other diets as well as technical information and discussion
of diets as related to IBD (Imflammatory Bowel Disease).
Discussion
includes support and covers the three known IBD diets, plus
the elemental diet as described in The Lancet article. Three
diets that are mainly covered are:
Elaine Gottschall's "Specific Carbohydrate Diet"
Dr. Wofgang J. Lutz's "Dismantling a Myth"
Dr. Walter L. Voegtlin's "Stone Age Diet"
Dr. Lutz's
book in English is out of print, but is due to be reprinted
by the Price-Pottenger Nutrition Foundation eventually. Dr.
Voegtlin's book was self-published in 1975 and should be available
on inter-library loan.

Sheila
Shea's web site contains a wealth of information about
intestinal health and colon hydrotherapy! While you are there,
be sure to subscribe to her IntestinalNewsletter, which addresses
a breadth and depth of topics such as constipation, candida,
eczema, hemorrhoids and the Specific Carbohydrate Diet - all
of which is referred back to and related to Intestinal Health
and Hydrotherapies. One "Long Island" subscriber
wrote this: "I must tell y'all that I recently subscribed
to Sheila's intest_health list, and was I in for a pleasant
surprise: it's a *very* SCD-friendly list! There were even
some SCDers there who didn't even know about this list!"

A quick
search Yahoo! Groups
on the character string "IBD" or "IBS"
will turn up a dozen or so groups that discuss these topics.
There are several very interesting "tesimonials"
groups which are worthwhile reading. Some group discussions
can be viewed by non-subscribers as a "threaded discussion";
subscribers can get all messages sent to their email program's
inbox.
The "colitiscrohns"
group discussion appears to be the most active, and reading
its messages is free to both non-subscribers and subscribers.
You must subscribe to post messages to the group.
