So great to hear of your progress! Thanks for sharing! It has definitely made a huge difference for me. It is so wonderful to have the ability to heal with food. Thanks for sharing so much info about GAPS and your experience too! This is a great article. We saw lots of good results with GAPS. It really taught us each a lot about our bodies and how to listen to them. But it is wonderful to hear that you saw good results with GAPS. Thanks, Chloe, for sharing your progress and passion!

Thank you, Megan! I feel like I am learning way more about myself by taking it slow. I love hearing about your progress, Chloe! I did GAPS in and have never regretted it. I was experiencing chronic insomnia and panic, and things were very grim for me at the time. Thank you for sharing your experience, I wish you the very best on your continued journey toward optimal health! Thank you for explaining the GAPS diet so clearly. Food Advertising by. Comments So great to hear of your progress!

I have just started the GAPS diet almost a month ago and your blogs are helping me immensely. Thank you for the wonderful feedback and best wishes on your GAPS journey. This is a great article. I will be starting the diet tomorrow for myself breastfeeding with chronic fatigue and IBS, and my kids with delays. However, I noticed that you mentioned no added fats in stage 1 but the book mentions adding fats to all soups. I personally will be adding an extra portion of butternut squash before bed cooked in stock with an extra cup of broth or tea for extra carbs.

We will stay on stage 1 for 5 days because I suspect high functioning autism for one child. I will add just for me a cooked apple and nut butter. Hi, I was diagnosed with Lymes Disease and have had Mycotoxicosis. During that time, I developed a lot of food allergies. After the mold toxins and the diagnosis of the autoimmune disease, I gradually became allergic to eggs, corn, soy, pea, nightshades, and other random things.

The biggest thing I want to change of course, is my health as a whole, but the things that bother me the most is my skin, energy, and brain fog. I also get mood swings quite frequently and bouts of depression. I did stage one the first time for 3 weeks and felt a ton better and then fell off the wagon a bit… by that I mean I had some raw carrots and celery and then felt as though I needed to start all over again.

Would you try to eat them in stage 2 in my case, or just skip it?? Thank you so much for reading this long message! Anxious to hear a response! Your email address will not be published. In the event of worsening of digestive symptoms upon progressing to the next stage, return to the previous stage for a few more days.

Keep eating the soups with bone marrow, boiled meats or fish and other soft tissues off the bones. It is important to continue drinking the meat stock and ginger tea. Keep adding some probiotic food into every cup of meat stock and every bowl of soup. Skip to content. Add raw organic egg yolks. Add stews and casseroles made with meats and vegetables. Increase daily amount of homemade yogurt and kefir, if introduced.

Increase the amount of juice from sauerkraut, fermented vegetables or vegetable medley. Introduce fermented fish, starting from one piece a day and gradually increasing.
