I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease a little over a year ago. I went through pentasa, remicade, all the usual medications and they semi-worked but for the most part not really worth their side effects.

My Dr. told me that diet has nothing to do with Crohn's disease, but like the guy in this story, I read Breaking the Vicious Cycle and got started on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet. I've been following it strictly for the past ~6 months and I am literally symptom free (with no drugs). Besides the strict diet, you wouldn't even know I have the disease.

The few times I've cheated on the diet, symptoms noticeably come back. So at this point I'm pretty sold on the benefits of SCD for Crohn's patients. Regardless of what my Dr. says.
