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.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *Alison'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 cooking with our recipes in your kitchen: Meals at the Ancestral Kitchen, our Ecookbook is available here.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 sponsored by Patrons in ancestral kitchens around the world!Patrons can choose to simply sponsor the podcast, or select from a variety of levels with benefits including additional bonus content, monthly live Zoom calls, a private podcast feed stuffed with bonus content from Alison and Andrea as well as our podcast guests, and a Discord discussion group.To read more about becoming a patron and explore the various levels, click here!* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * What we cover:Brief intro into GAPS and it's parentageWhy Alison & Rob embarked on GAPSHow they organised their kitchenTheir practical GAPS routinesWhat was most challenging about GAPSThe results they experienced with GAPSTransitioning off the dietHow their...
