I started SCD 2 years ago when I started having issues with stricture in small intestinal.
Background
My crohn was diagnosed 13 years ago. First I had only diarrhea & bloating, nothing really serious and I though that Crohn is just with me but doesn't bother me badly. I was skinny as ski jumper and I could eat anything without getting any extra weight. Many colonoskopys went and doctors said just eat your meds(150mg Azathioprine) and have fun with your life.
Few years ago I started univercity in different city and got involved in partying & fast food regularly. Got some weight and I really enjoyed my life. Well obviously that was too much for my stomach and Crohn got more foothold.
Getting better
I went to hospital when I had been awake for 40 hours because abdominal pain but doctors didn't find anything and only gave me painkillers. All they could do was to relieve symptoms. I got really pissed off and when I was home, I went to internet to seek any information about how to deal with Crohn, not only symptoms. I encountered Finnish SCD-diet pages and tried it for 2 months, really precisely(lost 10kg same time when played soccer 5x week). After that my crohn has been under MY control.
Diet & stuff
After 2 months of SCD, I changed to paleodiet, which I have been running now 2 years. Only things Im adding to those diets are some dairy products, sour milk or raw milk from farmhouse(not quite sure if these are 100% good). I eat lot of meat, fish, fruits, vegs, eggs and my favourites, berries which I picked up last summer
My bloodvalue p-CRP and poopvalue F-calpro are now same as normal people, first time in 14 years. So I think there are no inflammation in my system. As by-product, my asthma and hay allergy are gone also. Im now 40% better soccer player than 2 years ago.
There is way to stop crohn, its only up to you
Thats my 5 cents. :soledance:
edit:
forgot to mention that I have been completely without meds 1,5 years now. And I have been taken 5000 UI d-vitamins per day in winter time(important!).
