Cooking School
Going on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet means you're going to start doing more cooking! It may create a change in your lifestyle, but you'll also find that it's rewarding and fun to make your own food... to know what goes into it and to know that you're literally taking your health into your own two hands!
We thought it would be a good idea to collect many different cooking YouTube videos on this page so it can serve as a kind of "Cooking School." Enjoy learning and trying! |
