Here’s a video excerpt from Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride’s lecture about GAPS, the Gut and Psychology Syndrome at the WAPF Wise Traditions 2008 conference in San Francisco.
Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride successfully treated her own son, who was diagnosed autistic, which prompted an intensive study into causes and treatments of autism. It was during this time that Dr. Campbell-McBride developed her theories on the relationship between neurological disorders and nutrition.
Natasha Campbell-McBride MD, MMedSci (neurology), MMedSci (nutrition), graduated with honors as a medical doctor in 1984 from Bashkir Medical University in Russia. In the following years she gained a postgraduate degree in neurology. She also completed a second postgraduate degree in human nutrition at Sheffield University, UK.
She has been in practice as a neurologist, a neurosurgeon, and now runs the Cambridge Nutrition Clinic where she helps patients recover from autism, allergies, ADD, ADHD, Asperger’s, irritable bowel syndrome, depression, and many many other disorders that, according to Dr. Campbell-McBride, all stem from GAPS.
In 2004, she published the book, Gut And Psychology Syndrome: Natural Treatment Of Autism, ADHD, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Depression And Schizophrenia, in which she explores the connection between the patient’s physical state and brain function. The book gives full details of the GAPS Nutritional Protocol, highly successful in treating patients with learning disabilities and other mental problems.
In her clinic, Dr. Campbell-McBride also works with many patients suffering from heart disease, high blood pressure, arrhythmia, stroke and other complications of atherosclerosis. She has become acutely aware of the existing confusion about nutrition and these conditions, which spurred an intensive study into this subject. The result of this study is her new book Put You Heart In Your Mouth! What Really Is Heart Disease And What We Can Do To Prevent And Even Reverse It.
You can buy the videos, CDs or mp3 recordings from the Weston A. Price Foundation website. The complete conference on mp3 is only $169 (that’s what I bought last year — and LOVED it! I had lectures to listen to when I was doing dishes or running errands for 2 months.) You can also buy individual recordings for only $15.

Hi Ann Marie, I have a question about the olive oil. I know that Dr. Mcbride loves it, she said that it detoxifies and she mentioned many other benefits to taking it. Do you think that I could heal the gut without it? The reason that I hesitate to take it, is that monos tend to make you gain weight.
LOL I was watching top chef and kept thinking why Tom Coliccio looked so familiar. Does he not remind you of Seth? I think I hit the nail on the head!
Thanks Ann Marie

Yes of course you can heal the gut w/o olive oil. Just use other good fats like ghee or butter, beef tallow, lard, coconut oil, etc.
That is funny — he does look like Seth!! I never thought about that before but you are right.

I have a question: why is eating liver good for you if its main purpose is to filter blood and toxins out of it? A lot of people ask me this, and I don’t know the answer. They say, “Isn’t it full of the weird toxins and things?”
This is the only thing I could find on it, and it’s negative: http://www.juiceguy.com/Liver-filters-toxins-shellfish.shtml
I’ve also never heard anything on this website about the effects of liver on eye health. It’s got a ton of Vit A, so I’m doing it for helping that. I’m also going to start eating fish head soup (my mom promised to make it when I go home for Christmas).
Oh yes, I wanted to mention how I scare all vegetarians. They were asking me what I was making just now, “Lamb liver, with some lamb bone broth” and I was showing off the bones. I also had some leftover turkey broth. They were making all sorts of faces at me.

Hi, It’s so discouraging when you “know” something, but can’t back it up. This is from the weston a price site. Hope this clears things up a bit.
IS LIVER DANGEROUS?
In spite of widespread tradition and abundant scientific evidence on the health benefits of liver, conventional nutritionists and government agencies now warn against its consumption. The putative dangers of eating liver stem from two concerns–the assumption that liver contains many toxins and the high level of vitamin A that it provides.
One of the roles of the liver is to neutralize toxins (such as drugs, chemical agents and poisons); but the liver does not store toxins. Poisonous compounds that the body cannot neutralize and eliminate are likely to lodge in the fatty tissues and the nervous system. The liver is not a storage organ for toxins but it is a storage organ for many important nutrients (vitamins A, D, E, K, B12 and folic acid, and minerals such as copper and iron). These nutrients provide the body with some of the tools it needs to get rid of toxins.
Of course, we should consume liver from healthy animals–cattle, lamb, buffalo, hogs, chickens, turkeys, ducks and geese. The best choice is liver from animals that spend their lives outdoors and on pasture. If such a premier food is not available, the next choice is organic chicken, beef and calves liver. If supermarket liver is your only option, the best choice is calves liver, as in the U.S. beef cattle do spend their first months on pasture. Beef liver is more problematical as beef cattle are finished in feed lots. Livers from conventionally raised chicken and hogs are not recommended.
