Our time spent on the GAPS diet really changed everything for our family. It healed my son, Raleigh of severe eczema, food sensitivities, edema and asthma. Two years ago, Raleigh successfully transitioned off GAPS and was moved to the Weston A Price "diet". Even though we are not currently on GAPS as a family there… Continue reading GAPS Things I Still Implement Even Though We Are Not Currently on GAPS

GAPS Diet Food Pyramid
In light of the new food pyramid that was recently released (basically they flipped the old one) GAPS has also put out a GAPS diet pyramid. I thought I'd break it down for you.

The 3 Pillars of GAPS: Fermented Foods
There is a lot to the GAPS diet, but there are three specific foods that act as the pillars on which everything stands. These three foods are the linchpin that make the GAPS diet so successful.

Reversing Cavities and Remineralizing Toothpaste
Cavities seem to be a common issue with GAPS-people. It isn't surprising, considering many are nutrient deficient and not absorbing nutrients properly. Both of these things can lead to cavities forming and they did with my son, Raleigh. When we began the GAPS diet in 2017 he was 4 years old and had a couple… Continue reading Reversing Cavities and Remineralizing Toothpaste
Favorite Ferments
American food culture ditched fermented foods many decades ago. At least traditionally fermented foods. When Weston A Price traveled around the world in the early 1900s he observed how people who were still eating along the lines of their traditional ancestors had overall better teeth and health. Part of what these people were eating were… Continue reading Favorite Ferments
My Favorite Bone Broth Recipe
Bone Broth is an advanced GAPS food. What that means is it is an advanced food for the gut. The gut should have nice tight junctions (not leaky) to ensure you get all the wonderful benefits out of a bone broth. If the gut is still porous and leaky you want to start with meat… Continue reading My Favorite Bone Broth Recipe
