I just took a look at GAPS, looks fairly good from my very limited knowledge and tastes.

There are different schools of thought on some of the foods. I’m not wild about coconut or avocado, but I don’t think I’ve come across anything saying they are really bad.

Coconut oil:

Weston Price foundation seems pretty good.

Real fermented sauerkraut:

Most medicines are problematic; all I can suggest is researching each one you take and understanding its pharmacokinetics in order make good choices.

Yogurt is great. For probiotic supplements I’d avoid the ones from major drug companies. I think the Dr. Mercola stuff seems pretty good, but I’ve not used it. Lots of info in his site.

For dairy check out raw milk/dairy. You can get it delivered direct from farmer sometimes.

You can research treats you can make for yourself to alleviate wanting what you serve family.

FReeping helps ! :)

Thanks. I’ve followed the Weston Price school of thought for about 10 years, so already eat pretty well. I need to get back to raw milk, it’s so time consuming to get it, but I know it’s worth it.
