Healing the gut/autoimmune: Natural Options
In terms of healing the gut, u have two extremes:
The GAPS/SCD diets which are very heavy in fats and animal proteins, very low in fiber, veggies, and fruits. The thought is that dissacharides cause gut issues and that fats (up to 80% of the diet) and meat heal the gut. (sorry, but all my research shows that high meat/fat consumption leads to gastroparesis, heart issues, cholesterol issues, colon cancer, etc)
or
Dr Klein and Dr Graham, who promote a whole foods, natural diet, low in fats:

The success rate is extremely high. The theory here is that the fungus/GI issues were not caused by fruit sugar, it was caused by cooked starchy and fatty foods which decompose and breed the fungus/mold/candida. This diet helps to clean out the pathogens and restore gut functioning and health.
How does someone know what to do? I'm tired of taking craploads of supplements and I want to focus on healthy eating and natural healing!
