The Weston A Price Foundation has re-done their website several times, and each time they do it they mess up a LOT of their old links! Sorry about that. I fixed the link.

I went primal about 3 months ago because I've had nothing but stomach issues over the last 8 years. I have food allergies and I suspect I might have some new ones, so I'm working on that. I actually went one full month (the first primal) without any attacks or calming meds until eating out and afterwards learned my lamb was bathed in beef juices (am allergic to beef!) since then its been 2 months of attacks.......now I know that my gut needs to heal and seal......thanks you!! I have been able to maintain being sugar, gluten, soy free (also allergic to corn and soy) during all this, and I've dropped 18 lbs without effort (had gained about 20-25 over the years because of all the bread and bananas when I couldn't eat anything else). I am taking probiotics, but recently started again and noted that I can't sleep when I take one in the evening, I always fast after 4pm. They are sugar, gluten and soy free....any ideas? is this normal?? [taking Dr. Ohhiras Professional formula) I am ordering some of the books so I can get to this, I doubt that my condition is really all that serious by comparison, but I'd like to be able to leave this house and I'm tired of going to gastro doctors who hand me a fistful of prescriptions to mask the problem instead of getting to the heart of the problem (i've always refused them, I know better, why dont they?). I'd heard of leaky gut but never fully understood it, now I'm learning this could be my issue. We have crohns in the family but Ive not been given such a diagnosis but I suspect if i cant heal my gut its a likely possibility. I feel like crying with relief!!! ......where have you been all my life?!!! cyber hug, yes I'm that excited!!! ps: anyone who wants to give me some advice on the GAPs while waiting on my books, feel free, its a bit confusing (kellciadesigns@gmail.com) Saying Thank you for such an amazing post doesn’t seem to be enough.

My 10 year old niece has Crohn's and I am always talking to her parents about dietary avenues to treatment. Thanks for the great overview.

Canola oil was invented in the 1970s, and as such is not a traditional food. Furthermore, the version that most of us eat today wasn't invented until the 1990s, with the invention of Round-Up resistant rapeseed plants (via genetic modification). So, not only is it completely new to the human diet, but it's also a genetically-modified crop. Furthermore, most canola oil is extracted and refined in such a way as to make the delicate polyunsaturated fats in the oil go rancid, which is why the refining processes includes a chemical deodorization to make the oil more palatable to consumers.

According to what I've read Canola has a good 2:1 Omega 6 to Omega 3 ratio. PLEASE RESPOND. Why are you saying to stay away from Canola oil?

I am Russian, and grains seem to be the cornerstone of the diet for my ancestors for hundreds of years, if not a thousand (we just don't enough about them before 9-10th century AD). Bread is all over folklore, proverbs, and customs. As are kashi - a large variety of hot cereals. Especially in winter and early spring, when even the resources of stored fermented/preserved vegetables and fruits were running low. I can easily believe that it was made differently (with soaking, fermenting, and sprouting) and was certainly made from whole grains (especially rye, barley, etc). But to say that it should not be the staple of a healthy diet while seeking wisdom in traditions seems to be a contradiction to me.

Thank you for the timely reminders. It is essential during flu and cold season to build a strong immune system through a healthy gut. This week I've been eating my traditional saurkraut everyday along with some fermented ketchup and fermented mayo on my grass fed meatloaf. That along with a little raw milk helps me feel that I can fight off all the germs I run into daily. .-= Cathy Payne Great information! Thank you for the timely reminders.
