026: Talking about the GAPS Diet with Amanda Leach Released: December 28, 2017 Amanda Leach, a neighbor of the LCHF Family crew, joins to talk to Anne about the GAPS Diet , a form of low-carb, high-fat diet that aims to correct intestinal and neurological issues. Amanda gives a general overview of the diet, which she learned about by reading Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride's Gut and Psychology Syndrome: Natural Treatment for Autism, Dyspraxia, A.D.D., Dyslexia, A.D.H.D., Depression, Schizophrenia . Amanda is happy to answer additional questions from listeners. You can reach her on her Facebook page or through email (amjole08 @ yahoo . com). She shared some of her favorite recipes that she uses with her family as they follow the GAPS Diet. 1. Pemmican -- More instructions that recipes. This is highly customizable for your version of LCHF. The original fat bomb? 2. Pumpkin Bars, as follows: Pumpkin Bars 2 cups puréed pumpkin 6 eggs 1 Tablespoon cinnamon 2-3 Tablespoons coconut oil Splash of vanilla (Optional: 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup) Mix all ingredients well with hand beaters. Pour in a 9X9 square pan or equivalent size. Bake at 350 degrees for 18-25 minutes or until center is firm. Let it cool for 15-20 minutes. Cut into bars and serve. 3. Electrolyte Drink (NSNGers, this does contain honey and fruit juice, all of which are a no-go if you're avoiding added sugar. People who do general LCHF should consider this drink in light of the rest of your carbohydrate intake for the day and what your personal goals are.) Electrolyte Drink 4 oranges, juiced 1 lemon, juiced 4 cups water 1/4 tsp salt 2 doonks of liquid stevia or 1/8 cup honey Combine all ingredients in a pitcher and stir to combine.

Sugar Blues 3. Fat Head Kids: Stuff About Diet and Health I Wish I Knew When I Was Your Age 4. The Obesity Code: Unlocking the Secrets of Weight Loss Sincere apologies for the sound quality in this episode! Believe it or not, it actually sounds better than the original sound file. The next episode does not have the same issues and we recorded it 15 minutes after this one, so I honestly have no idea what happened. We should have our repaired soundboard back by episode 29, and finally be free of these technical issues. Many thanks to Lee Rosevere at Free Music Archive for the music we use in the podcast!
