The Most Popular Ulcerative Colitis Diet is the “Specific Carbohydrate Diet” or SCD
SCD has actually been around for several decades, but to most people it’s previously unknown. That was the case for me. Not a single doctor ever told me about treating my UC with diet. The Specific Carbohydrate Diet™ has been researched and tested out for well over 45 years by two pretty spectacular people. Both Elaine Gottschall and Dr. Hass spent thousands of hours figuring out what works well and what does not in terms of foods. And I’m very grateful for all their hard work.
SO HERE’S The DEAL: My brand new video presents the bloody proof of my horrible struggle but eventual victory over my UC. I figured out how to control my symptoms. You want to gain control of your bowels right?
Included in the video is an outline of exactly how bad my bloody bathroom visits were, and how freaked out I was mentally. I can’t deny, it was awful back then, 10, 15, even 20-plus times on the toilet bowl each day blowing out stinky gas and all sorts of other bloody mess. And that went on for months and months!

What’s great is that diet has worked for so many people who follow this site (including me) by healing and helping our UC symptoms. Many UC’ers who use diet are amazed that their doctors never said anything to them about it. But there’s no reason for you to be angry or upset with your doctors, (actually, feel free to be pissed at them if it makes you feel better). The reality is the drug companies and health care system can’t profit when colitis patients begin to feel better on their own. It’s simple math at that point. If you don’t control your UC with medications…you don’t purchase medications. No rocket science needed here right…
If there was a way for lots of money to be made, and for drug companies as well as doctors to profit from diet changes, you definitely would have heard about this a long time ago, probably at your first doctor visit. When I started treating my symptoms with diet, I didn’t need all this “help” from the medical world anymore. I didn’t need to constantly be re-filling my prescriptions every month. Drug companies hate people like me, they don’t make a dime off people like me. Pretty cool right!
But there’s more, by moving away from medications and on with diet, I finally stopped worrying about medication side effects. It really frustrates the hell out of me when other UC’ers email their long list of side effects that their medications are inflicting on their body. Prednisone/Prednisolone is probably the worst in terms of side effects, but there’s a bunch of others that can contribute to the side effects that are so unfortunate.

and got OFF ALL MEDICATIONS.” -Adam
In the video, I go through all the facts that led me from being so sick with colitis to finally finding my way out of the dark hole. You’ll have the chance to find out just how I did it too. Click to watch the video!
PLUS, fair warning: you don’t do what so many other UC’ers have done right after watching the video, you’ll probably continue living however you are right now. And I can’t imagine that’s what you want.
The Science behind this diet is pretty simple. I’ll try to explain it to you in simple terms. “Bad bacteria” in the colon are triggering the immune system to fight. And, that bad bacteria we create from certain foods we eat that isn’t fully digested(certain breads, wheat products, certain sugars for example, corn). So, when we eliminate those “bad” foods that cause “bad bacteria growth” our immune systems don’t have to keep killing off invaders and attacking. That’s the idea. It’s Pretty Simple.
Here are just a few of the meals that I whip up on a regular basis:
(all of them are listed in my eCookbook with easy to use instructions and ingredient lists)
The smoothie that has helped me get through many a mornings where I just don’t have time to make anything and need to get out the door quickly. (I make it all the time for snacks as well, it’s WAY GOOD!
Another simple meal, Who likes Thai food?
You might not find this in any Thai restaurants, but we call it Thai Coconut Chicken, and it’s a regular on the menu at my place too.
Here’s my wife Michaela eating some of the butternut squash soup we make from time to time. Again, another simple quickie to prepare.
Don’t forget the ice cream right. Well, if you’ve never had COCONUT Ice Cream, Listen Up: In my opinion, you’ve never really had Ice Cream. Since starting the SCD Diet, this is by far my favorite dessert creation. AND, it only takes a couple of minutes to get ready, and then you set it and forget it. It’s faster than running tot he store and buying ice cream that’s for sure.
I made this meal several times when I got out of a flare back in October of 2011. If you don’t like baked chicken, well, I’d say you’re missing out.
This is a cake that we baked with a simple SCD almond flour recipe. I like to add blueberries to some desserts and that’s what you’re seeing on the top here.

In good health,
