Guest guest Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 I have wondered the same thing. It was mentioned on another list that once the damage has been done even the good healthy foods and prep of those foods will not be good. That it will add to the irritation regardless. When looking at the food list overview on some of the blogs discussing this i have noticed the food list don'ts are gluten and caesin. I am not sure if soaking and culturing eliminate Gluten or caesin. Anyone else know? > > I've read the GAPS book, and was disappointed to see that Natasha does > not mention raw dairy products.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 I ended up having a consultation with Dr. -McBride. She said that while soaked grains and raw dairy are the best ways to eat these foods, they are still not allowed on the GAPS diet because of their disaccharide content. > > > > I've read the GAPS book, and was disappointed to see that Natasha > does > > not mention raw dairy products.
