So I'm compiling a list of things to do from advice I've gotten from my brother and online Facebook group forums and the books I have on hand.
The one thing I cannot stress enough is that this is not an overnight change. I am going to have to take it step by step and learn as I go. There is a GAPS class at Real Foods Market in January, one month from now. This will give me a running head start to read the book, practice the recipes and gather the supplements.
Here is what I'm starting out with and my goal is to check everything off within 1 week (except finishing reading the book):
- Purchase remedies in book for immediate eczema relief:
- Dermrash Cream from Dr. Kang Formulas
- Dermatrophin
- Andrographis Complex
- Purchase GAPS book and READ it - continue reading others mentioned earlier.
Buy Ghee to replace butter(Ghee not recommended until stage 2)- Find a good source for marrow bones.
- Learn how to make probiotic foods:
Whey(for stage one, it says to make probiotic foods without whey!! Recipes for lacto-fermented foods)- Saurkraut
- Cabbage juice tonic
This is scary. Overwhelming. Lonely. Crazy. But I am convinced it's the answer to my many prayers. I know this is what I need to do and I'm finally bucking down to do it!! I've made a shopping list and quick instructions from my bro on probiotic foods. It is below:
To buy:
2 Bulgarian yogurt – real foods
Ground celtic sea salt – real foods
Caraway seeds – winco (6 Tablespoons)
Medium cabbage
PROBIOTIC FOODS:
Pg. 87 – Making Whey
Get yogurt (Bulgarian)
Plain cotton t-shirt
Pour yogurt in
Pour yogurt in cotton fabric, leave in strainer until it
stops dripping (several hours) – the whey will drip out. Separate cream cheese
to store. Whey for 6 months, cream cheese for 1 month
Pg.92 – Making Sauerkraut
Follow instructions – don’t eat exposed shreds from
refrigerator.
Pg 614 – Cabbage juice tonic
Follow instructions - can pound with mason jar instead of buying hammer.
