#59 - Alison & Rob's Personal Experience with GAPS

Have you ever thought the GAPS protocol might be for you? Are you considering trying it, or you’ve just heard about it and wonder how it fits into a healing journey? Are you struggling to bring grains into your diet without digestive issues, or wondering what you can do to replenish a gut system damaged by antibiotics? This is the episode for you.We've had conversations with so many of you about GAPS, the Gut and Psychology Syndrome diet created by Dr Natasha Campbell McBride, so it is time to share Alison’s story.Alison, along with her husband, Rob, and their then almost 2-year-old son, followed the GAPS protocol for over 2 years. In this episode they open the door on that time and share their personal experience - why they embarked on GAPS, how they organised their kitchen, their practical routines, what they found challenging, what results they experienced, how they transitioned off GAPS and how their healing has moved on since then.With characteristic dry humour from Rob, witty repartee from Alison and of course an appearance of the famous squash pancakes, this episode is both entertaining and highly informative with a strong message of hope and solidarity for everyone working to find healing.Get a 5% discount (and free shipping in the US) on grass-fed supplements, including liver capsules by visiting: https://www.oneearthhealth.com/AncestralKitchen* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *For more tips, inspiration and recipes sign up for Alison's newsletter here!Get our two podcast cookbooks:Meals at the Ancestral HearthSpelt Sourdough Every DayAlison's course, Rye Sourdough Bread: Mastering The Basics is here, with a 10% discount applied!Alison's Sowans oat fermentation course is here, with a 10% discount applied!Get 10% off any course at The Fermentation School: click here and use code AKP at checkout.Get 10% off US/Canada Bokashi supplies: click here and use code AKP.Get 10% off UK Bokashi supplies.Visit our (non-Amazon!) bookshop for a vast selection of ancestral cookbooks: US link here and UK link here.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *Our podcast is supported by Patrons in ancestral kitchens around the world!Come join our community!
