  1. Domesticactivist, I am going to check your blog for recipes. I have been reluctant making changes in my diet but I am trying to be more open to Gap, paleo while feeling depressed already mourning the food I will have to bury and forget about.

  2. Hi, thanks for all the helpful GAPS info you have posted :). Quick question, if you dont mind: I'm vegetarian & would like to do gaps, I am prepared to eat fish to make the boths - do you think fish stock/broth alone could be as effective (altho perhaps take longer) as using meat/chicken offal etc.

    Many thanks!

  3. We use the Green Pastures Fermented Cod Liver Oil. Our daughter takes the Green Pastures Butter Oil/Fermented Cod Liver Oil blend. My naturopath started giving me B vitamin shots. This is a good way to supplement it because it doesn't rely on your gut for absorption.
  4. I can't believe I missed this thread! You've already gotten good advice. Our family has been on the GAPS diet for a year and it has worked wonders for each of us in different ways. I highly recommend doing the introduction GAPS diet. It really helps both with healing and with identifying foods that cause you problems, since you start out so basic and slowly...
  5. We make our own as well. Stock is always on hand and that makes it REALLY easy to whip up a variety of soups at the drop of a hat.
  6. Yup. I have ADD when I'm eating gluten, as does my daughter. My son has ADHD and extreme dyslexia when on gluten. We're all much more able to think clearly without it. The GAPS diet has also helped. You might be interested in reading the book - it's all about the gut brain connection. Studies are now starting to show links between celiac and ADHD, schizophrenia...
  7. Bubbas mom sainwhat I was going to. Do not put her back on gluten! An endoscopy now could be good for follow up testing purposes either to compare with a previous result or as a baseline for future testing. Has she been screened for other autoimmune diseases? Hashimoto's, liver conditions, diabetes type 1... I'm on my phone so can't pull it up more details...
  8. Whether this can work depends partly on where you are, but I used midwives for both my pregnancies and deliveries at home. My midwife's husband was a naturopath which worked out great. It was about a tenth of the cost of seeing a regular doctor, and my babies and I got much better care!
  9. I know the feeling! I never want to leave my kids and fear for them when I'm away (or they are). When we started making our changes it was especially hard because they were going back and forth to their dad's house, and I had to trust him. But I say go on your trip! If you are looking for an excuse not to go, then by all means this is a fine excuse. But...
  10. I hope you tell all those drs exactly what made the difference! Maybe they'll eventually think to tell others What a happy surprise!
  11. Yay! Congratulations! That could definitely confuse your symptom-tracking Is it your first baby? Any idea when the baby is due? I bet your doctor will be surprised!!!
  12. You mean I might have a butt someday? !!!
  13. Ps my add got much better gluten-free and came back worse than ever during my two month challenge. Same with my nonceliac daughter. My son's ADHD cleared up as did his extreme dyslexia. This really does affect our minds!
  14. Your post isn't too long at all welcome! I felt horrid when I first went gluten free. Part was withdrawal and part was that I tried some gluten free products that didn't sit right with me. I've gotten the vertigo (dizziness) from medications and I've also gotten it seemingly randomly. I just got it the other day, actually. I was near the end of my gluten...
