Advising to eat grains or any other carbohydrate doesn't make sense for many reasons besides pH. Some examples would be tthe glucose roller coaster, insulin desensitisation, immune system suppression by half for up to 5 hours, advanced glycation end products, induced metabolic syndrome including reduced repair and regeneration via HGH growth hormone suppression, lack of nutrient density etc... ...the bowel disorders alone, which are at epidemic levels, are a good enough reason for probably a third of the population to avoid carbs.
I believe in the "no-grain" diet but a good low carb diet goes beyond that to exclude sweet fruits, potatoes, yams, sweet potatoes, sugar beets, and sugar and starches including those allowed by the Specific Carbohydrate diet. The proof is that such a diet tends to reverse Crohn's, colitis, irritable bowel syndrome, gut candida and dysbiosis, given time, and you can't do it while using any carbs. Adding a couple of specific supplements is all it takes to reduce that time by a factor of about eight: inulin, undenatured whey and selenium.
