Dr. Campbell-McBride graduated with Honours as a Medical Doctor in
1984 from Bashkir Medical University in Russia. In the following
years she gained a Postgraduate Degree in Neurology.
After practicing for five years as a Neurologist and three years as
a Neurosurgeon, she started a family and moved to the UK. It
was during this time that Dr. Campbell-McBride developed her
theories on the relationship between neurological disorders and
nutrition, and completed a second Postgraduate Degree in Human
Nutrition at Sheffield University, UK. She has specialized in using
nutritional approach as a treatment, and has become recognized as
one of the world’s leading experts in treating children and adults
with learning disabilities and other mental disorders, as well as
children and adults with digestive and immune disorders.
In 2004 she published her first book Gut And Psychology Syndrome.
Natural Treatment Of Autism, ADHD, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Depression
And Schizophrenia where she explores the connection between the
patient's physical state and brain function. The book gives full
details of the GAPS Nutritional Protocol, highly successful in
treating patients with chronic diseases. A second edition was
published in 2010. The concept of GAPS has become a global
phenomenon and the book has been translated into 20 languages.
She is also the author of Put Your Heart in Your Mouth (rev ed.
2016), and Vegetarianism Explained published in 2017. She is also a
Member of The Society of Authors, The British Society for
Environmental Medicine, and a Board Member of the Weston A Price
Foundation. She is a regular contributing health editor to a
number of journals, magazines, newsletters, and radio programmes
around the world.
“Dr Natasha Campbell-McBride has written a very important book! Not
only has she demonstrated the vital role of microbiome in all
chronic disease, but she has given us a practical healing protocol
on how to deal with the problem. Her views on autoimmune disease
are deep and based in clinical experience. This book should be read
by every person with a chronic degenerative disease and by every
medical professional who works with these patients. I warmly
recommend it!”–Professor Yehuda Shoenfeld MD, Zabludowicz
Center for Autoimmune Diseases, Chaim Sheba Medical Center,
Israel
“Dr. Natasha has done it again! Gut and Physiology Syndrome takes
an in-depth look at the underlying causes of today's health
crisis--environmental and dietary poisons--and then provides a
comprehensive plan for detoxification and nourishment to achieve
the good health and clear mind that is the birth right of every
adult and every child. Especially appreciated are suggestions for
reviving our natural instincts for knowing what to eat for our own
particular metabolism. Gut and Physiology Syndrome is an important
contribution to our collective search for good health.”–Sally
Fallon Morell, President of The Weston A. Price Foundation
“I recently had the opportunity to review Natasha
Campbell-McBride's new book Gut and Physiology Syndrome.
Natasha has been a valued colleague and friend of mine for many
years. In fact, there are few other medical people who have
had such a positive influence on my thinking and my practice of
medicine as Natasha. Natasha is a creative thinker and a deep
seeker for the truth wherever it may lie. Natasha
revolutionized the world of medicine with her original GAPS
concepts and books. She showed us in clear and practical
terms that microbes are not our enemies and that learning to work
with our internal microbiome is one of the keys to not only our own
health, but the health and survival of our planet. The beauty of
Natasha's work is that, unlike most, she takes this new
understanding of our crucial relationship with the microbial world
and put it into a doable, effective, action plan. Natasha's GAPS
Diet has been a cornerstone of my medical work for the greater part
of a decade. With her new book, Natasha expands on her vision
of the role of our microbiome in our entire physiology. She
continues to break new ground as she gently pushes us into a new
more honest, realistic and ecological understanding of life. This
work is a tremendous contribution towards remediating our current
medical situation: one, in which our current medicine is largely
another source of sickness and disease, to one, where we can begin
to heal the tremendous suffering we are experiencing all around us.
Please buy this book, think about what is being said and, if
possible, put these ideas into action. Our world depends on it!”–Dr
Thomas Cowan MD, author of Cancer & the New Biology of Water
“This book is a gem! A wealth of information about the
central role of the gut microbiome in maintaining the health of all
the organs of our body. A central theme is that infectious disease
only happens when our tissues are unhealthy, due to nutritional
deficiencies and toxic chemical exposures, and infection is part of
a repair mechanism to restore health. For example, fungi release
nanoparticles that can absorb toxic metals and facilitate their
removal from the body. This book will change your perspective on
health and disease and teach you how to heal your body
naturally.”–Dr Stephanie Seneff, PhD
“This book is a tour de force! A revelation! With chronic illness
affecting over half the US population, with a new generation of
children sicker and dying younger than their parents' generation—if
this continues, we are facing the deterioration of our civilization
and humanity. Dr Campbell-McBride reveals the damage is mostly
self-inflicted! Dr Campbell-McBride does more than show us the
causes of illnesses, she gives us practical ways of reversing (and
preventing) the deterioration of health and offering us hope for
true healing. This book should be required reading in every medical
school. Established ways are slow to adapt and change. Therefore,
it is up to the individual healthcare practitioner, the parent with
a chronically ill child, or adult (seeking to reverse conditions
they were told were incurable), the health-conscious consumer
(wishing to optimize and preserve their well-being and that of
their family) to read this book. Lives are at stake.”–Tedd Koren,
DC, author of Cancer is Natural, So Is the Cure
“Well, Dr Natasha has done it again! This book abounds rational
information and wisdom. Her explanation of the body's physiology is
brilliant, yet easy to comprehend. Gut and Psychology Syndrome was
a revelation to the world of autism and mental illness. Gut and
Physiology Syndrome restores hope to all people suffering from
chronic diseases and unexplained symptoms. I can't thank her
enough!”–Beatrice Levinson, Traditional Naturopath, Certified GAPS
Practitioner
