A Taste of Wellness
The Specific Carbohydrate Diet has proven itself to be an important tool in the treatment of patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease, and other digestive disorders. In her new work, Mrs Rochel Weiss has provided readers a clear, concise and comprehensive approach to successfully managing all aspects of this special nutritional therapy. --Philip G. Kazlow MD, Associate Director, Division of Pediatric Gastroenterology Columbia-Presbyterian Medical CenterWe were taught in medical school Diet doesn t matter in the treatment of ulcerative colitis and Crohn s Disease. Over 25 years of clinical experience with IBD patients has convinced me that the SCD really works. Conventional medicine has mostly ignored it, but the SCD has empowered thousands of patients to recover. This great new book now makes the diet more do-able and enjoyable! --Ronald L. Hoffman, MD, CNS Medical Director, Hoffman Center, NYC and host of Health Talk, WOR Radio NetworkWhen I was first approached to photograph this cookbook, I had never heard of the Specific Carbohydrate Diet. The author explained its premise to me, and told me how it had literally changed her life. She wanted to create a cookbook for people whose food options were so limited that they often had to choose bland or tasteless foods. When we started photography of the recipes, the first thing I noticed was how great my studio smelled! Each new recipe brought more tempting aromas, and eventually, I had to taste something. Then something else. Then something else, until finally, I had tasted just about everything. I was amazed at how delicious everything was! I still can t believe that this is a cookbook for such a restricted diet. I had cake made without flour, ice cream made without milk, and cookies made without sugar. Thankfully, I do not have any dietary restrictions, but I can certainly imagine what it might be like to be faced with so little choice. I am positive that this cookbook will be a blessing to anyone who has digestive issues. --Nancy, Photo Synthesis Photography
