hmmm…. i did a quick google on this and as far as i’ve read it seems to be that squash and carrots do have starch… but only a minute amount. So, because it was such a small amount i assume the creator didn’t wan’t to restrict to many foods so gave some slack and allowed them and it also didn’t show up in your iodine experiment.
I really think carrots and squash don’t have starch in them, put a drop of iodine on those foods and if it turns brown it has starch in it.
A green banana has tons of starch and thats why they can make a good banana chips out of them where a ripe banana would just turn into water sugar and fiber then shrink to almost nothing,
carrots and squash turn to almost nothing if you start to over cook them in the oven. Starchy foods hold there shape when over cooked.
i don’t quite understand your reply. what i think you meant to say was squash and carrots are made up of simple carbohydrates which is easy to digest. sure carrots may have some fructose but the thing is, those two foods definitely contain starch which is a complex carb.
Its the simple carbohydrates in carrots and squash where it will digest completely before it hits the colon, where a sweet potato is more complex like grains.
Try using the Papaya Enzymes from Trader Joe’s… those help a lot. :)
9:52 She’s saying the baby swallows the mums flora, sort of baby cunnilingus?
Wouldn’t mind having her vaginal flora for desert.
(cont2) I had some reflux from it. But the pain in my stomach was soothed. I’m sorry this was so long. But I really want to find out if this is what I have. Is there a test I can take?? Thanks.
(cont) As if the food never reached the bottom of my stomach?? to stop the hunger?? I have asked my doc about this before and she said I had never heard of this. I had tried eating broth / tea before my meals and adding fiber. I got really full / bloated but that made me uncomfortable and my stomach hurt. Yesterday I had bought my daughter Kefir. I wanted to taste it. So I did. Very yummi. So I drank a full cup. It seemed to soothe my stomach. Intially, I noticed I could not digest this too well
I don’t know for sure if I really have this but stumbled upon something yesterday and wondering if I do. I noticed while eating “healthy” foods my stomach was starting to act back up again. So then I stopped the “healthy” eating. Baffled, not sure why my stomach began to do this. I also noticed sugar cravings raging again. Back to thinking it’s candida throughout. But then, I also noticed everytime I ate I had this “lower stomach” feeling of being unsatiated by the food.
anyone know why carrots or squash are allowed in the diet. they don’t allow startchy vegetables like potato or sweet potato. why are these two startchy vegetables banned but carrots and squash allowed. any info would be great, thanks
Tigerlilly699 – I’m just learning and reading about GAPS but something I just read was about the acid foods and the alkaline foods.. and you need a good balance.. you need to add in more alkaline foods.. like apple cider and fermented vegetables etc.. look in this im thinking.
Hello, I just started the GAPS diet and it’s been 5days. To start off I have horrible digestion and acid reflux comes and goes. When I started I had no acid reflux and now day 5 it’s soooooo bad. I read that the broth, cabbage juice, and something else I forgot can increase acid. I don’t know what to do :( it’s BAD I can’t even sleep b/c of it. I can’t take the supplement Dr. Natasha says to in the book b/c I am nursing. Can you please or anyone please help?
GAPS really works! We’ve been doing it for a year and it is not just another diet…it heals! I’m forever grateful to Dr. Natasha Campbell McBride for helping my whole family (and my son dx PDD-NOS) in our journey to recovery.
Will GAPS diet help in chelation of Toxic metals (Mercury, Aluminum, Lead, etc…) in our brain and bones?
Do it. It’s the only worthwhile treatment that will make your child better instead of gradually worse but concealing the symptoms, which is what modern medicine does.
