“If you feel enslaved to standard food and pharmaceutical remedies, The Heal Your Gut Cookbook provides a comprehensive can-do liberation plan. These pages scream 'freedom to be healthy!'"—Joel Salatin, Polyface Farm

The Heal Your Gut Cookbook was created by Gut and Psychology Syndrome (GAPS) Diet experts Hilary Boynton and Mary G. Brackett to help heal your gut and to manage the illnesses that stem from it. Pioneering British MD Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride provides the book’s Foreword.
GAPS addresses disorders, including: ADD/ADHD, autism, addictions, depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorder, stemming from or exacerbated by leaky gut and dysbiosis. It also refers to chronic gut-related physical conditions, including:

• Celiac disease
• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Diabetes type one
• Crohn’s disease
• Asthma
• Eczema
• Allergies
• Thyroid disorders

• and more!
  An evolution of the Specific Carbohydrate Diet, the GAPS Diet will appeal to followers of the Paleo Diet, who are still struggling for optimum health, as well as anyone interested in the health benefits of fermentation or the Weston A. Price approach to nutrition.
  In The Heal Your Gut Cookbook, readers will learn about the key cooking techniques and ingredients that form the backbone of the GAPS Diet:

• Working with stocks and broths
• Soaking nuts and seeds
• Using coconut

• Culturing raw dairy

  The authors offer encouraging, real-life perspectives on the life-changing improvements to the health of their families by following this challenging, but powerful, diet.
  The GAPS Diet is designed to restore the balance between beneficial and pathogenic intestinal bacteria and seal the gut through the elimination of grains, processed foods, and refined sugars and the carefully sequenced reintroduction of nutrient-dense foods.

  The Heal Your Gut Cookbook is a must-have if you are following the GAPS Diet, considering the GAPS Diet, or simply looking to improve your digestive health and―by extension―your physical and mental well-being.
