    The Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD) is a grain-free and low-sugar diet developed in the 1920s to treat celiac disease. It prohibits foods like grains, sugars, dairy, and legumes while allowing foods like meats, eggs, most vegetables and fruits. The diet aims to change the gut bacteria from "bad" to "good" to reduce inflammation for conditions like inflammatory bowel disease. While research is still early, some studies show potential benefits for managing IBD. The diet requires support from medical professionals to achieve best outcomes and monitor health and nutrition during the trial.
