“Do I need to go on a gut-healing diet? Or is a traditional food diet enough?”
This is a great question, and I get it a lot.
Neala M. recently asked me for more information, so I’m devoting today’s podcast to answering her (and you!).
Up ahead:
- what is a Traditional Food diet?
- what is a Gut-Healing diet?
- how are they same?
- how are they different?
- when should you choose a gut-healing diet?
- resources for both Traditional Foods and Gut-Healing diets (including FREE!)
Be sure to share your experiences and tips in the comments!

Which Diet Is Right For You — Traditional Food or Gut-Healing?
Good morning Wardee, I feel so confused on what diet to follow there are so many options and not sure which is best for me and my family. I hear raw food diet is best, then I hear low carb, high card, no salt no sugar, etc. and so on. Please shed some insight comment on how I can choose the best diet thanks so much. –Neala M.

Great podcast, Wardeh. We are preparing to start…something…(will begin consulting with Megan this month so we’ll do what she tells us to do.) ???? We do a lot of things right but my husband especially has some major health issues that conventional medicine (which is his field) hasn’t touched. He’s been reluctantly semi-cooperating, but after a friend who was in our pharmacy this week began having a heart attack, was helped by my husband to the hospital, and died later that day, he came to me the next morning and said “I’m ready. Tell me what to do.” His dad and granddad died in their 60’s of heart-related illness and he’s only a few years away from that…and in much worse condition than they were. I’m praying he stays on board and is helped by this. Thanks for all your help and encouragement over the years. You’ve been a big part of what I’m trying to do to heal my family.

Hi Al,
Feel free to email me about this.
I have received your e-book on sourdough cooking and I have listened to a podcast and been receiving your email for several months. I haven’t actually started the Traditional Foods diet yet, but I really want to start it in 2016. For the past couple of years, I have been using my own Kefir in baking and sometimes drinking. 🙂 My husband isn’t a huge fan of drinking it. But I want to do more. It still all seems a little overwhelming. Can you tell me what is the best way to start? I would love to break it down to a very simple. Ok – for step 1 do this. Step 2 – do this, etc.
Can you help me please? I love your web site, blog, podcasts, etc.
And, thank you so much for sharing everything, especially the resources, with us.
