Immunity

Jan. 29, 2015

I’m so grateful I didn’t catch the bad cold/flu that Husby – and just about everyone else, it seems – had this week.

Perhaps the way I’ve been eating for a year actually has begun to heal my gut and boosted my immune system! And just how have I been eating?

• What I omit: Refined sugar, simple carbs, grains, beans & legumes, dairy, processed anything

• What I eat: Complex carbs sparingly, organic meat & produce when practical, raw and unprocessed foods wherever possible

• Gut-healing supplements I use:  Probiotics & prebiotics, L-Glutamine, antifungal substances such as oregano oil, caprylic acid (found abundantly in unprocessed coconut oil), Echinacea, grapefruit seed extract, Pau d'Arco
