Our process is different than GAPS. While GAPS is an amazing plan for gut healing, I've found with my clients that compliance is extremely difficult (same goes for SCD) which is why I created Gut Thrive in Five - so that people could have another place to turn that encompasses more than diet (hence why the botanicals/supplements are so crucial to success on GT5). This combination plus a positive mental/emotional approach has been very successful for us with those who come to us from GAPS or SCD, and because it's a much less restrictive plan, the compliance is much higher (as is joy throughout the program).

As for time frame, add up the total number of years you've been sick and divide it by two and that is our typical rate of success. So 10 years being sick = 5 months of healing. Most of our GT5ers feel markedly better after 4 weeks on the program once inflammation is down and pathogens are being eliminated.
