The idea of healing small ruptures in the intestines by lining them with fats and collagen to isolate them from inflammatory stool components, and then preserving that lining by eating soft foods seems highly practical to me.
And on a scientific scale, I give your assessment a zero. You have simply wielded the word "science" with contempt prior to any observation. IOW you're employing pseudoscience to make your point, then referencing a blog post which cherry picks assertions from a licensed scientist, cites them out of context, relies on analogy, and you present this as "Science". You have in essence conflated science with rhetoric, especially given the well-documented biases of the Skeptics, the organization behind scienceblogs.

- equalunique 9y agoWish I had enough karma to downvote. Not CodeWriter's comments, but dimmuborgir's - for being so rude.
- vanderZwan 9y agoContrary to you he at least gave a reference link to pick apart and discuss the validity of his claim. Which is better than a counterargument thar boils down to "I believe it could work because these ideas behind it soundsl reasonable" with no actual back-up from scientific studies testing those hypotheses. Which is then followed by an ad hominem accusation of being unscientific, and topped off with a claim of "well documented biases" but again without providing any actual references to said biases. I don't know anything about GAPS and have no stake in its validity going either way, but I can say that your accusations of unscientific behaviour come across as projection.
