SCD SURVEY RESULTS

The Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD) Survey gives people who follow the SCD an opportunity to compare life experiences by compiling individual responses to represent an entire SCD Community.  The Survey gives the SCD Community insight on how others have incorporated SCD in their lives, their successes and challenges and the effectiveness of the SCD as a treatment tool for the treatment of diseases that originate or directly impact the gastrointestinal tract. As we undertake future surveys, we will refine the variables inherent in surveys to provide more details and transparency.
