It's rare that I agree with Janice, but this time she's
absolutely correct.

There is no cure for celiac disease at this time, and the quote
you provide is incorrect when it states that the specific
carbohydrate diet will cure celiac disease. It is a treatment,
not a cure.

By "cure," we don't mean "while you're on the diet you will be
healthy." "Cure" means that you no longer have the disease. The
"Specific Carbohydrate Diet" is not a cure because if you leave
the diet and start consuming gluten, you will react to gluten
just as you did before starting the diet.

The fact is that the "Specific Carbohydrate Diet" is a gluten-
free diet. When a celiac doesn't ingest gluten, they don't
suffer the effects of gluten on their system.

That's not to say that one wouldn't benefit from going on the
SCD; they most likely will. It's an effective treatment.

But it's no cure.

No I have not read the book.

You have no idea who you are talking to with your mirror attitude of mine.
Some, here will violently disagree with you and fit into the category, you
described in your first paragraph I preach this also. I am sure you will see
it demonstrated shortly, here. Most end up in people's bozo bins for their
negative attitudes and do not get read.

Have you tried D'adamo's Blood Type diet? I have witnessed many miracle with
that one also. Appears we just shouldn't be taking these newly created
grains into our human bodies. Every week I hear of somebody else that has
gotten a new chance in life due to getting off those seemingly innocent
poisons.

Here come the flames!

ROFLMAO

I suspected someone would say there was no "cure" for celiac disease.

This is quibble on words. There is no cure for life. We are all going to die. However, if
we can make our health and life better by being selective of what we eat, then I am all
for it.

There is no cure for poor/failing eye site, I am happy to wear glasses to correct the
situation for most of my life.

There is no cure for coronary artery disease. By-pass surgery and stints are all
temporary. Diet can help to avoid future problems with coronary artery disease.

There is no cure for sugar diabetes. But, medicine and diet can help.

There is no cure for a lot of illnesses. But, medicine and diet can help.

For some reason people with celiac disease are quick to yell "There is no cure for celiac
disease." Well, join the crowd.

There certainly isn't a cure for the person you were responding too. Her
attitude is a fine example of the very thing you were complaining about.

I agree with you on the attitude. It is prevailent in a good percentage of
people afflicted with these nuisance diseases. Usually the crowd that
follows the commonly accepted chem/cut medical profession. They are taught
strict rules and are not allowed to free-think. The old Doctor is God
attitude from the 1800s is still widely out there.

Search the archives for any mention of Fit for Life, Blood Type Diet, or
other alternative research displays and you will find a great demonstration
of helplessness by bullies that want everybody on their level for fears of
being left behind.

Absolutely correct.

And when you quote material claiming a cure for those other
diseases, I will point out the fallacy of that claim, too.

In this case, it was in response to material that you posted that
claimed there was a cure. It's hard to credit material that makes
false claims; I can tell that it's the mistaken review of someone
who followed the diet and not a claim of the creator of the diet,
but not everyone will. Be more careful when selecting material
to post.
