This podcast is especially for those of you with GAPS questions that you need answered by a health professional, who has studied GAPS as well as other methods of healing. Shalani McCray, naturopathic nutritionist, medical herbalist and GAPS practitioner, joins Jo this week to answer your questions. Learn more about:

how to decide if GAPS is right for you
should testing be done before starting GAPS
how to do GAPS when you have histamine reactions
when slow-cooked broths are not good for you
how to add healing broths and fermented foods to a sensitive person’s diet
why raw cacao may not be a good idea
coping with the amount of time it takes to cook from scratch
when to push through a die-off reaction, and how to know if it’s an intolerance or die-off
the best probiotics to use, and how much and when to take them
how much you can ‘cheat’ on GAPS before it affects healing
are there benefits if you start doing full GAPS without doing the intro
how to fill kids up on GAPS food
is this way of eating just too much meat
can you do GAPS if you’re vegetarian
how to cope with eating out
will GAPS make me lose weight/gain weight
what you can do if GAPS didn’t work for you and more.

Shalani shares that there is no magic formula, everyone is different, and each person needs to work out the healing diet that suits their body. GAPS may need to be done a little differently for different people, so if in doubt or needing help, please get in touch with an experienced GAPS practitioner.

Jo has invited Shalani to come back for another podcast as there are still more questions from readers that they didn’t have time to answer, so stay tuned for part two. If you’d like to send in some questions, please contact Jo via her blog or Facebook page, and they will be added to the list!
