Re: Important

Is tofu fermented? I know miso and tempeh is. I didn't know flax was anti-thyroid. I don't eat raw cruciferous veggies, so I'm ok in that area.

I agree with u on the honey and fruit issue. That always stood out to me. Most people on SCD and GAPS are on a modified version of it to exclude these sugary foods....sounds like an anti-candida diet to me (but with fermented foods).

I also agree that a lot of what they say is conflicting with their other theories. Thus, an anti-candida diet makes more sense...but one that is individualized to each person. I feel that diet is EXTREMELY vital, but without getting rid of the infections/toxins, nothing will change. Also, normalizing gut flora is vital, too!

However, since cutting out grains, my gut has felt a LOT better. BMs still are very abnormal, but that won't clear up until the infections are erradicated. GF diet did not help...my gut is too damaged and inflammed to handle grains. However, I seem to do ok with brown rice protein powder. I make sure to eat lots of veggies and I drink homemade veg juice. I also include more fats into my diet, for fats are healing, helps with hormones and cell membrane repair, etc (VCO, skins, natural fats found normally in foods). I'm trying to eat as "natural" as possible, save for the rice protein powder. I also eat almond butter and eggs. Is this healthy, Hv? Here is my new diet change:

Meal 1/pre-workout
-4-6oz veg juice with 1 TB sauerkraut
1 TB coconut butter + 1 TB almond butter + 2.5 TB rice protein powder (add some water to make it into a "pudding")

Meal 2
Stir-fry: 3oz white meat poultry (chicken or turkey) + 3oz avo/pea non-bean "hummus" + steamed veggies + 1 TB VCO + spices and Sea Salt and 2 TB sauerkraut

Meal 3
-4-6 oz veg juice
2-3 jumbo eggs, some veggie pulp added to the eggs left over from juicing, spices, Sea Salt (maybe some kraut) + 1/2-1 TB VCO

Meal 4:
sauted veggies with 1/2-1 TB VCO and maybe some chicken fat, 5-6 oz chicken thighs (with or without skin), spices, maybe kraut

Meal 5 (if I'm hungry)
-repeat of meal one, but probably no juice, just the "pudding"...or 1-2 soft-boiled eggs

How is this? is it healthy?
2-3 jumbo eggs Tweet
