Are you ready to start the GAPS or SCD diet but you’re not sure where to begin?
If you are new to following a very limited diet like the GAPS diet, it can be overwhelming to know where to start first. It may seem like you can no longer use almost everything you used to cook with.
Or, if you’ve been following it for a while, you may be looking for some new and yummy dinners to prepare.
The good news is, there are some great alternatives to “normal ingredients” and some great recipes that are grain, starch and sugar free.
When you and your family start following this diet, it is vital that you plan ahead before you go shopping at the store. Our GAPS/SCD menu planners do it for you!
We have four GAPS planners available, based on common allergens.

GAPS Guide by Baden Lashkov:
If you have not yet read the GAPS Guide by Baden Lashkov and are planning on implementing the GAPS diet, I highly recommend her book.
Baden offers simple and practical advice on how to start this diet, taking things slow and steady according to your pace. She also covers important information about juicing and supplements that is vital to healing that is not covered in the menu planner such as taking Cod Liver Oil and Probiotics.
If you want more detailed and scientific information about how and why this diet works, you can also order The Gut and Psychology Syndrome by Natasha Campbell-McBride, who created the GAPS protocol based on the SCD diet.
