- Zucchini Pasta Noodles
This is my weekly post talking about what’s been twisting and brewing in my kitchen. It is part of Wardeh’s Tuesday Twister at GNOWFLINS. Check it out!
It’s been a busy and eventful week! I have been very inspired and have been experimenting with new and wonderful recipes! My week started out last Sunday with a renewed inspiration and dedication to creating traditional foods that are very nourishing for the body. Wardeh’s post about reversing food allergies through traditional foods got me started with this.
Midweek, I was contacted my someone who had emailed me a few weeks ago asking for help with menu planning for a very limited diet. The first time she emailed, she was reacting to many foods including all grains, eggs, casein, poultry, and milk. On top of that, she also has celiac disease.
Last week she emailed me and told me she had been doing the GAPS diet and program. She said that it was not only helping with her problems, she was becoming “un-allergic” to foods that had previously upset her. Her diet is still very limited but she is looking forward to introducing more foods and sounds really good!
Now, when I hear the same thing twice in one week from two different sources, I feel like “someone” is trying to tell me something!
I checked out GAPS and was intrigued by what it claims to help people with! In a nutshell, it aims to heal the gut lining, and therefore helps adults and children with an array of digestive AND mental problems such as: depression, celiac disease, non-anaphylactic food allergies and sensitivities, autism, ADHD, colitis, obsessive compulsive disorder, Chrohn’s, learning disabilities, diverticulitis, candida overgrowth, and much more!
I am almost finished reading the Gaps Guide, by Baden Lashkov and will soon be ordering the book, The Gut and Psychology Syndrome, by Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride, MD. I am completely fascinated by this diet and program and am really enjoying reading it! I am still learning so much; when I am a bit further with it, I will write a more thorough post about it.
