GAPS: The Gut and Psychology Syndrome

By Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride MD, MMedSci (neurology), MmedSci (nutrition)

Gut And Psychology Syndrome or GAPS includes learning disabilities and mental disorders such as autism, ADHD/ADD, dyslexia, dyspraxia, addictions, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, epilepsy, eating disorders and many other conditions, which affect the function of the brain. Many of these conditions have no established diagnostic labels and present themselves as a mixture of various so-called mental symptoms: mood alterations, memory and cognitive problems, behavioral and social problems, panic attacks, anxiety, involuntary movements, various tics and fits, sensory problems etc.

Gut And Physiology Syndrome or GAPS includes various chronic physical conditions, which stem from and unhealthy gut, such as autoimmune conditions (celiac disease, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes type one, multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, osteoarthritis, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, autoimmune skin problems, etc.)atopic conditions (asthma, eczema, various allergies), food allergy/intolerance, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, ME, multiple chemical sensitivity, arthritis, PMS and other menstrual problems, many endocrine disorders (thyroid, adrenal and other) and all digestive disorders.

Dr. Natasha believes that our digestive system holds the roots of our health; GAPS conditions stem from the unhealthy gut

Children are being diagnosed with adult diseases as young as 2 years old. Our children are the future! One small step can change the life of a child. No blame, shame or guilt. You can’t change what you don’t know so educate yourself.

We have moved our educational class to a bigger room and can accommodate many more people. Our classes generally last one hour and include a healthy snack and hand outs.

This past week I had a gentleman come into the store looking for Vitamin B3. We got to talking and I learned both of his parents have been diagnosed with Alzheimers. He has been in Bolivar since September taking care of them and researching how he can help them. It was so interesting and I asked him if he would come and speak to our class on June 6th. He agreed. You will not want to miss this and if you know of anyone taking care of an Alzheimer’s client, please let them know. Here’s an excerpt from his email to me.

MOMS….If you have young children who are experiencing learning and/or behavioral issues, you won’t want to miss the class this Thursday. 

The Feingold Diet is based on the premise that allergic reactions or sensitivities to certain types of foods cause or contribute to ADD/ADHD symptoms, such as problems with:

• Behavior (marked hyperactivity, impulsive and compulsive actions, emotional concerns)
• Learning (short attention span, neuro-muscular difficulties, cognitive and perceptual disturbances)
• Health (physical complaints and/or sleep problems)

Gayla Prewitt is an experienced mom of four who has used the Feingold Diet as a stepping stone for her children to overcome allergies to foods and additives.  

Class time is 7:00 P.M. at our store on 434 S. Springfield Avenue.

The class is FREE and there is NO REGISTRATION.required.  Just show up and bring a friend. 

Our goal is to educate the community on health issues.  If you have ideas for classes you’d like to see in the future, please let us know.
