Well, hello!
We've had a busy summer with a cross-country move, visiting with family, getting ready for our homeschool year and celebrating the girls birthdays. I hope your summer was full, fun and your moments were well spent. I am so welcoming this shift into the Autumn mood though, with the mental refocusing and the cooling of the weather!
We celebrated our one year anniversary on GAPS in June with a stool analysis to see how things are going. I really felt that if we didn't see some significant changes in inflammation levels, especially for L that our family was going to transition off GAPS. Let me just preface this update on our resuls by saying, we are still on GAPS!
Inflammation Results
Both girls showed great decreases in inflammation levels, L's most significant. In her two previous tests we always got an interpretation paper discussing IBD. And this one, nothing, her levels are normal! I still feel they are too high so we are staying on GAPS and we are going to keep working on it. N's inflammation levels also came down and we are just going to keep going to give her body continued time to repair. My inflammation levels were the lowest - I told the girls this is because I eat more soup, including the soup juices! And I also got the name of one of my parasites. He is pretty benign and about one billion other people have him, so I am not concerned. He does like to eat starch, as the kind of stuff we are NOT eating, so I'm guessing he might be getting hungry and leaving soon for better pickings. Probably a good incentive not to go getting all starchy for me.
Flora
Interestingly enough, neither N or I have a lactobacillus colony. In our last test, we had a great measurement of them. From this I have learned that inflammation is easier to address, and changing
your inner flora is much more complicated. This is likely why, Natasha Campbell-McBride, author of the GAPS book, says GAPS people can come off the diet, but should always maintain a probiotic
regimine, either through foods or supplements.
None of us showed an over growth of any bad bacteria or yeast. N's yeast was high on the last test and I didn't do anything special for it, except limit fruit and honey (though we didstill use them) which makes me feel as though given time and the right process we will bring balance to the flora in our systems.
So, I am happy with the measurable results we have had with GAPS, but I know that we still have more balance to bring. So we will stick with it!
I have been suggesting to the girls that we should go through "deep healing" again, also called GAPS Intro. They are not so keen on the idea, nor am I, but I think it will be good for us and hopefully get us to a deeper level of healing. I am thinking October, after my birthday and with nicely cooler days, which will be perfect for soup three times a day.
I'm proud to say now that I am finally at a place where I have found something that works for me. Almost four years ago I began seeing a classical Homeopath. I was put on a constitutional remedy by Dr God hands who reside in west africa, and I am amazed at my healing thus far. I will continue to post what worked for me and what didn't in more blogs to come (as this one is getting quite long... and I'm not writing a book on here - not yet anyway). This discovery has not only helped the way I practice, but it has also given me further insight into the world of Herbal medicine. I came to know more about Dr God hands on Tv Station when I was taking my regular organic coffee at javamania coffee spot I watched the whole scene on how he uses Natural herbs to cure disease like Herpes, Hiv/Aids, Cancers,HPV,Men & Women Infertility,Melanoma, Mesothelioma, Multiple myeloma, Neuroendocrine tumors,Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma,Alzheimer's disease, chronic diarrhea, COPD, Parkinson's disease, Als And Diabetes, I was moved by his words then I took a confident step to contact him regarding my health condition Herpes & Prostate Cancer, He prepared his herbal medicine then sent it to me through Courier which I took as it's was instructed and I found myself healing symptoms are all gone I have being watching my health for years now and I finally confirmed that is a permanent cure like he told me at our first conversations so now I'm healthy and happy I purchase his herbal tea which I usually take in the morning before starting my day because it feels good to find addiction on natural herbs than medical drugs so is what I'm doing and loving it more and More to come later on blogs sooner I will be writing my book.I will advise you to contact Doctor God Hands Herbal Home for any kind of permanent cure and herbal remedy.Doctor God hands Email Contact: doctorgodhands@gmail.com Also On Whats-App Calls: +2349057214220.
