What about sugar cravings? Would you also frame that as your body needing something? I hear people always say it’s something you got to push through

[@MoonFireGypsy]

I like your take on cravings, very insightful.

[@onechannel1803]

Yeah .. I totally agree.

[@kidsnkittens]

I’m so thankful for your words of encouragement! Especially that: healing takes time. Thank you for all your wisdom!

[@fernandobautista3200]

I would add that the ultimate goal is to stay away from supermarkets and industrial food, just as Dr. Natasha pointed it out, thanks for sharing your lovely advices.

[@lesleyveale792]

I’ve had a gastric bypass and devastated at the thought of gaps not working for me because of the surgery. Please tell me I can still heal? My book is actually being delivered today and I’ve got my meat stock in the freezer. Praying I still have a fighting chance to heal ❤

[@FeliciaDLarson]

This is extremely helpful as I consider integrating this eating style into my life.

[@kennyhoste4741]

Especially the last point was good to hear today. Thanks.

[@justinfinityiii]

Wow shops are not arranged like that in the uk

[@torriec.1665]

I’ve got a 4 month old and would LOVE LOVE LOVE more info about starting babies on GAPS.

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

I will be making videos on this soon, thanks!

[@MoMoMack]

I spy a new fridge! Congrats on that! It’s got to make life so much easier.

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Yes!! Thank you :)

[@devis4019]

Please make an informational video on ..what to do if the progress seems to be stagnant. Thank you

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

GREAT idea, will do!

[@SusanDaschner]

Good points.

[@cbintx6906]

GAPS and histamine. I’ve finally figured out that’s what all of my years of issues are. I’ve been doing GAPS for about a month and can do the yogurt fine but too much sauerkraut or kefir are a big no and definitely no nuts or avocados…how can I do some form of pancakes etc that aren’t nut based and will give my body the best nourishing help?

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Dr. Natasha recommends pushing through histamine issues unless you're really miserable with them. More meat stock will resolve histamine issues, she's found. For people who are really miserable, she recommends stopping fermented foods and taking a probiotic supplement while focusing on lots of meat stock. Beyond that, GAPS is bio individual, and in order to help further, I would need to assess your diet and lifestyle habits.

Thank you

[@CherylCasselmanMusic]

I want to try gaps but it honestly seems so daunting

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

It's common to feel that way at first! I created this to help: FREE Masterclass: How to Start the GAPS Diet with More Confidence and Less Confusion -> my.demio.com/ref/2znHBvku8txu1OSd

Is that a new kitchen? Would love a tour - looks so nice!

[@brookidy]

Yes that was my first thought. Did you do a remodel or move?

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Yes, we did some (much needed!) updates :)

Thank you for all your helpful content about the Gaps diet! I have a question about dairy - if you’re starting with the intro diet, it seems that you an have 24hr fermented yoghurt right away, and can move on to kefir soon after... But if going into full gaps only, you have to be extremely careful about introducing dairy?

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Great question! If you previously tolerated dairy just fine, and are starting with full GAPS, you can keep having the same amount of 24 hour cultured yogurt and kefir that you previously did well with. If you have any concerns about tolerating dairy, Dr. Natasha recommends following the dairy introduction protocol :)

[@dianadehass7616]

Really good 👍🏼

[@lizzienicolee]

hi i’m totally binging your videos right now. do you have any resources regarding gaps and breastfeeding? i don’t think you can do the intro diet but is there a safe way to incorporate full gaps or is that something best to do after weaning? i have another year or so of breastfeeding and am curious about options. there isn’t much info out there about it (and i’m yet to finish her book)

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Thank you! Dr. Natasha says full GAPS is fine while nursing, but not intro

[@amberatwood]

I've searched your GAPS playlist and there is some good helpful content, I am currently 24 weeks pregnant and was wondering if this is something you can start while pregnant? I have severe and overwhelming swelling in my abdomen every time I eat and it feels like my guts are going to rupture, this started before I was pregnant and have gone to multiple dr visits and tests and scans and the only suggestion is to take a steroid to numb the nerves, which I dont want to do. I came across this diet being mentioned by another youtuber and it sounds like something I'd like to give a try and see if it helps the pain, but as I mentioned I am pregnant so I wanted to know your take on it since you are also pregnant. Thank you.

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Congrats! Yes, Dr. Natasha recommends full GAPS (not intro) while pregnant and nursing. GAPS has a great track record of helping people with painful bloating. Feel free to email me if I can help further!

[@northernflicker1111]

Do you have any recommendations on where to get fresh eggs and raw milk in the Denver area? I just realized you live in CO 😁

[@areid0528]

Target vital farms pasture raised eggs. If you can't find a farm

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Yes! I would contact the Denver Weston A. Price chapter: secure.westonaprice.org/cvweb_weston/cgi-bin/utilities.dll/openpage?wrp=chapter_dir.htm It is run by two wonderful ladies who will be able to help you find everything you need :)

[@northernflicker1111]

@@bumblebeeapothecary ahhh thank you so much! 😁🥰

Wish Id realised I had Histamine Intolerance first. I learnt the hard way in GAPS.

@@bumblebeeapothecary thanks. Ive come off GAPS and am on a low hist diet. Im working with a herbalist now who is very intuitive. It is helping me heal finally!

[@n.a.garciafamily]

Marissa, I bought some great unrendered suet and had it in my garage for awhile (cold here, like a fridge). It's been in there for a few weeks. I just realized it has bits of meat in it. Is it still safe to render?

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

If it's as cold as a fridge, it should be okay! I would check it and make sure it smells fine, and it should be good to go :)

[@hadia23384]

Would my newborn have to do gaps later if the rest of the family is doing it now?? And is it ok to do intro while breastfeeding?

[@areid0528]

Yea

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

Great questions! It really depends. You'll have to see how baby does when they're older. Dr. Natasha recommends moms follow full GAPS (not intro) while pregnant or nursing).

[@suzibee2156]

How are you and that baby doing? Hope the transition for all the kids is smooth!

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

We're doing great! I'll be doing a baby update soon :) Thanks :)

There’s only a parking lot outside of my store.

[@bumblebeeapothecary]

I mean shop the outside edges of the inside of the store :)
