Meal Plans For Scd?

I really need some help so if anyone can tell me what kind of meals they prepare on the SCD I would appreciate it! :)

I have 3 young children at home and also am 5 months pregnant so it's hard just to do the day to day stuff. I'm hypoglycemic and also awating the gluten test results from enterolab. I really want to change my ways to improve energy. A few days back on the gluten-free diet and I already feel & see a difference in my kids.

I want to do the SCD diet but I don't know where to start. I'm guessing I can get a yogurt maker off amzn. Other than that, where can I get a weekly meal plan that includes snacks and "dessert" for my kids?

I eat snacks that are "legal" but than am still hungry afterward. I want to be sure I am eating what is allowed, but enough for the baby as well, but also not throwing my blood sugar off. Is this possible with the SCD and how do I know what amounts to eat? Also, how do I prepare meals for a family on this diet?

Any tips, lists of where to start would be awesome! thanks so much!

Here is a thread that can tell you everything you might need to know, and then some:

Breakfast: Scrambled eggs made with a little yogurt.

almond flour pancakes with butter and honey.

Fresh fruit.

Snack - apple and yogurt or apple and peanutbutter

lunch - Fried Chicken, mashed cauliflower (like mashed potatoes)

Peas, carrots, winter squash; Homemade butter pecan frozen yogurt. Carrot cake with cream cheese frosting.

Sweets:

Blonde brownies (almond flour, butter and honey)

Coconut macaroons

Supper - grilled chicken salad - yogurt dressing (like ranch) or vinegerette dressing. Fresh pineapple with french cream.

Lemon Tarts, (Recipe's from Healing Foods cookbook.)

This is not a low carb diet.

Don't eat anything that causes a reaction, but eat as much as you want of what agrees with you. I munch all day long and eat well at each meal. Theses are low calorie foods, and all very very good for me. I increased my bone density by 2.5%. It's not a lot, but if I continue to increase in 5 years I will have cured my osteopenia! Also, my iron level is excellent, B-12 level normal, and vitamin D normal (I supplement D) Plus my skin is soft and clear, my hair healthy and shiny. My mind is clear and sharp and I have tons of energy. Life is finally very good!

Enjoy!

      I noticed on the label: https://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/product/whole-foods-market-organic-wheatgrass-powder-california-73-ounce-b07g333x4y that it says "Contain Wheat Ingredients," which probably means that it can include the protein from the wheat kernels/seeds.
    • Scott Adams
      Pure wheatgrass is gluten-free, however, there can be issues when they make it because the kernel/seeds can get mixed into the grass that is harvested, and then ground up in the powder. I've seen this firsthand when Jamba Juice used to cut the wheat grass in front of you (maybe they still do this), and put it in the juicer--they often included seeds that had been pushed up by the growth of the grass. In general, to be on the safe side, I think it's best to avoid wheat and barley grasses.

      I meant to specify it was an Orgain product. They have several options to choose from.

      Thank you Scott. I bought a product that has 50 superfoods from Costco online and I saw that it said gluten free but I did not see the ingredients list of this particular powder. It has wheat and barley grass. I realize the grass is not the portion that contains gluten. However, I wonder about cross contact. Since they are not certified, I might not choose this product but rather choose another of their powders that forgo the grasses. But, since I bought a huge tub of it, I am tempted to try it if they respond with reassurance that when they state gluten free, they mean celiac safe gluten free. Some products will make that claim but walk it back if they know you are celiac. Plus I have not had any wheat or barley products since for many years and frankly am a little intimidated to try it. Have you tried the product?

      Feel free to share your test results here, but depending on which test(s), a positive result could make celiac disease very likely. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
