The more I work with people and food, the more I realize how individual people’s need are. There are so many excellent resources online. Here are a few that I recommend regularly:
MICROBIOME
Fiber fueled – book and cookbook by Dr Will Bulsiewicz
Fermented foods – I often recommend the consumption of fermented foods to improved digestive health.
Sauerkraut is a great place to start – cabbage, salt and time! Here is another sauerkraut recipe.
Book: Fermented Vegetables by Kirsten and Christopher Shockey
If you are curious about learning to prepare lacto-fermented or “cultured” produce, this is an excellent book for you. Written by a pair of “fermentistas”, they lay out all the basics concepts and have a great recipe section – first by fermenting different kinds of produce, and then using the fermented foods in recipes including meals, snacks, desserts and cocktails (or as they say, “crocktails”)
ELIMINATION DIETS
The Whole Life Nutrition Kitchen – Whole food inspiration, with recipes that are mainly gluten, dairy and soy free. Vegetarian, vegan and omnivore options.
Elana’s pantry – A huge resource for gluten free, grain free, paleo and specific carbohydrate diets.
Paleoplan – A paleolithic diet resource.
Every Day Paleo – Another paleolithic diet resource.
FODMAPS – for people who need to avoid highly fermentable carbohydrates (i.e. gas and bloating)
SPECIFIC CARBOHYDRATE DIET – used in some digestive cases, especially IBD
Breaking the Vicious Cycle – based on the book that introduced SCD
Comfy Belly – choose “SCD recipes”
Elana’s Pantry (above) – both have some SCD recipes
VEGETARIAN – also see Whole Life Nutrition Kitchen above
Vesanto Melina – A good resource for vegan, vegetarian and raw food diets.
Oh She Glows – some yummy recipes here
Joel Fuhrman – I like Dr Fuhrman’s approach to a “nutritarian” lifestyle
