Gut-Healing Diets

Gut-healing diets can improve symptoms of neurodevelopmental, mood and autoimmune disorders by healing the gut. These diets recognize the value of the microbiome in our intestinal tracts in preventing and healing these and other disorders. Examples of this type of diet are the Body Ecology Diet, the Gut and Psychology (GAPS) diet, the Paleo/primal diet and the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD).
