It's a lot easier to understand if you read the book. Basically the doctor's theory is that people with neurological and other disorders can be helped greatly by healing the gut and she prescribes a healing diet which discourages yeast and negative bacteria and encourages healthy bacteria growth. It cuts out all grains and uses almond meal and coconut flour instead for baked goods, which you are supposed to have only occassionally, you are supposed to eat mostly vegetables and meat and meat broths/stocks, some fruit and use raw honey as a sweetener, and only fully cultured dairy e.g. yogurt has to be cultured for 24 hours, there are more details but that is the gist of it. Honestly it sounds like you are eating pretty well already and is probably going to be too much information overload right now if you are reading a bunch of other books. I was just thinking if you are doing a lot of waiting on insurance issues it might be something you can do without needing insurance or medical help.
