Specific Carbohydrate Diet

Work

by Elaine Gottschall · 1996

A dietary approach originally developed to manage celiac disease and later popularized by Elaine Gottschall through her book Breaking the Vicious Cycle. It restricts complex carbohydrates such as disaccharides and polysaccharides while allowing monosaccharides and foods including fish, aged cheese, and honey; grains, potatoes, and lactose-containing dairy are generally excluded.
