How bad was your digestion before you started this diet? That is the thing I am struggling with most at the moment. I've suspected starch foods are the issue but I do eat a lot of fruit, it could poss...

I have read in a few places you shouldn't have starch and protein in the same meal, for as long as I can remember I have had both of these together. My digestion is pretty brutal and I know this won't...

When i started this I went all out too. Didn't really work my way into it. I had some gas pains for like a week when I'd drink kefir, but just pushed through and am doing much better. No symptoms what...

Wow, I really must have been hitting the probiotics and fermented foods way to hard. This past week my digestion was been awful and I have had major brain fog, it has been so difficult to concentrate....

I'm currently fermenting some bok choy and carrots. The jar I am doing it in isn't the best, it is an air tight one but the top you just push in and not a screw one. I noticed yesterday the lid had pu...

Do you have to use cabbage when fermenting foods? It seems every site I have read about fermenting foods has cabbage in there ingredients. It is just making me wonder if my lettuce, carrot and ginger ...

I tried my sauerkraut and hated it, no surprise really as I don't have any liking for cabbage. I am now trying to ferment romaine lettuce, carrots and ginger root. I just mixed them together and givin...

How do you know when your sauerkraut is done? Mine has been fermenting for 9 days now, i've just eaten some and it doesn't taste to bad. Once i do decide to finish it is it okay to then just put it in...

I am making some sauerkraut and really wanted to make lots of fermented foods to help my bloating and digestive issues. Something i came across has put me off though, it said that fermented foods can ...

I shall have a read on that, thanks. As my digestion is really bad, i'm bloated/constipated 24/7, do you think it would be best to stop eating any meat and fish etc for now? Maybe it would be best if ...

I am currently taking an enzymes supplement that contains Betaine HCI. I am starting to juice vegetables like carrots, cucumber and leafy greens to see if that can do any good. How much do you think t...

Has liver flushing helped at all?   I haven't liver flushed in a long time now, it must be 2-3 years i think. At the time i didn't have digestion problems so i'm not sure if they would help or ...

I really wish i could go at this diet there must be something really wrong with my digestion. Not only am i constantly bloated but i cannot eat fats. Eggs, olive oil, coconut oil etc completely blocks...

Is bone broth fattening? I know fat forms at the top when it has been refrigerated, i remove that but what about the rest? The reason i ask is because i have major issues with fats, if i consume anyth...

I tend to use chicken bones, since I eat about 3 chickens a week. I like to add a little bit of beef or lamb bones since I can't seem to get the liquid to gel with just chicken bones.   I can't...

I've been in a bit of excitement all day as i checked the broth today that i made last night and it was all gelled up. Strange how something like that gets me excited but there you go I have got some...

I recently cut them out and am seeing major improvements. I also cut out a few other things that weren't recommended for the gut-healing diet though, so I'm not sure which was the culprit. If I contin...

How bad are sweet potatoes for someone with a bad gut? I can't get on the website at the moment for this particular diet but i know on the gaps diet you have to cut out sweet potatoes. I'm trying to f...

I came in here to say mine aren't gelling up either, i'm just using chicken bones at the moment. If they aren't gelling up does that mean they aren't going to be all that useful?

Thanks very much, i shall invest in a crock pot and give that a try.

As long as these bones are okay to use is this all i really need to do...   1. Remove any meat from the bones and put the bones in a pot 2. Cover the bones with water 3. Add vegetables if i wish ...
