nyree pryce naturopath While there is no one size fits all approach to diet, the GAPS diet addresses a lot of issues stemming from imbalance in the gut. GAPS stands for Gut and Psychology Syndrome and is based on the work of Dr Natasha Campbell Mc-Bride (author of a book with the same name). The various stages of the GAPS diet are designed to starve the “unfriendly” bacteria, heal and seal the gut lining and support and promote the growth of “friendly” bacteria, altering the microbiome - or the bacteria that live in us and on us. There is a growing field of evidence that supports the importance of the role of the gastrointestinal microbiome in our behaviour and mood. This is known as the gut-brain axis; with 70% of the neurotransmitters in the brain also found in the gut, it is no wonder that our digestive health directly impacts our mental and emotional health and wellbeing.
