Our Mission and history

The Specific Carbohydrate Diet Association (SCDA) was established in 2018 to advance awareness, education, and responsible implementation of the Specific Carbohydrate Diet™ (SCD™).

We unite individuals, families, caregivers, healthcare professionals, researchers, and mission-aligned organizations around the world who are committed to dietary therapy as a pathway toward improved digestive health.

Through educational resources, global online communities, conferences, and outreach initiatives, SCDA provides structured guidance, credible information, and meaningful connection for those seeking support on the SCD journey.

We also advocate for and promote research to further understand the role of the Specific Carbohydrate Diet in inflammatory bowel disease and related digestive conditions.

Our mission is to:

• Increase awareness and accurate understanding of the Specific Carbohydrate Diet
• Strengthen and unify the global SCD community
• Provide education, resources, and peer support for individuals and families
