Comments on: GAPS Snacks http://www.cheeseslave.com/2008/09/04/gaps-snacks/ For the love of cheese. And bacon. And butter. And raw milk. And all those other things we're not supposed to eat.

I'm doing it for my eczema and for the next baby and he's doing it to support me and for more energy less stress etc. I read back to when you started and it looks like you skipped the intro diet but the diet still seemed to work for you, is that right? It sounds like by week 2 you and Seth were both feeling better but you were eating grilled meats etc. I just dont' know how long I can get my husband to eat soup, I could however make him happy on plenty of grilled meats and veggies :) Let me know your thoughts since you have some experience on the diet. Oh and what are your plans for the festival this weekend? I hope I get to meet you on Saturday! Lauren Hi Ann Marie,

Thanks for posting these great snacks. Unfortunatley we are still in the intro phase of gaps so only the jerky would work for us. I am anxious to see if my kids would eat jerky. It might be too tough for them to chew. I know that if I get pregnant again someday I will totally make jerky to snack on! Great for nursing mamas too!! BTW, congrats on making the jump to your own domain! What a great blog! I'm going to change my link to you right now! Hi AM!

That is an awesome title. :-) I jumped into fermenting whole hog too last fall. I love it! I've known for years how important it is to consume probiotics. I cured myself of allergies and arthritis in my twenties. Ann Marie Hi, Lisa!

Just because I know I should, my family has recently started using the Nourishing Traditions, Wild Fermentation, Weston A. Price type foods in our life. Some we were doing and didn't know how good for us it was and others are new. I I am a fermenting Queen, LOL...I have Kombucha, Japanese Water Crystals, Kefir, Sauerkraut, Mixed Veggies, Bread, Nuts, Seeds, legumes, Butter, creams, Cheese and spreads in one shape form or fashion going in my house. So, my friends gave me title. Thanks again! Lisa Thank you very much. Just because I know I should, my family has recently started using the Nourishing Traditions, Wild Fermentation, Weston A.

GAPS stands for Gut and Psychology Syndrome. It is a diet for intestinal healing created by Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride, author of the book, "Gut and Psychology Syndrome". GAPS is very similar to (and based on) the SCD or Specific Carbohydrate Diet. These diets (both GAPS and SCD) are being used to treat all manner of intestinal issues, as well as autism, food allergies, asthma, ADD and ADHD, depression, anxiety, arthritis, etc. Here's a couple of links with more information: http://www.gutandpsychologysyndrome.com/ http://www.gapsdiet.com/ Here's my recipe for beef jerky: http://www.cheeseslave.com/2008/08/09/easy-homemade-beef-jerky/ Ann Marie Hi, Lisa,

I've had the ones from Trader Joe's, and they surprised me with their deliciousness. They're simply dates, coconut and almonds as well - no added sugars or anything - however, they're so high calorie I can't allow myself to buy them, as I'll want to eat the whole package in one sitting! Great sweet GAPS treat though. Coconut date rolls are AMAZING! I’ve had the ones from Trader Joe’s, and they surprised me with their deliciousness.
