GAPS Intro Stage 2
Posted by doctoracorinna on Jan 11, 2013 in GAPS Diet, GAPS Intro Stage 2 | Comments Off on GAPS Intro Stage 2Stage 2 of the Intro! One of the things to note is that you move through the stages as you are personally ready to.
Additional foods that are added with Stage 2:
-raw egg yolks from pastured chickens (add to hot soup or broth before eating)
–soft boiled eggs (whites cooked, yolks still runny)
–stews and casseroles
-increase the amount of juice from your fermented vegetables in your soups/broth
-fermented fish
-homemade ghee
-All other foods you have been eating on stage 1 of the diet.
The things I am most excited about regarding this stage: Eggs! Glorious eggs! I love eggs. Love them. Don’t believe the idea that eggs are bad for you. If you get a good egg (and by that I mean an egg from a pastured chicken that is eating the things a chicken is supposed to eat and is out in the sunshine and is healthy and happy) you will be getting a powerhouse of protein, vitamins, minerals and the nutrients lutein and zeaxanthin (these nutrients have been shown to benefit eye health).
The ability to BAKE my food again. There is something unappetizing about all boiled food all the time.
I haven’t tried fermenting my own fish yet. I will let you know how it goes if I do.
