Curious if you also did a gut protocol meal plan for the week of April 4? I see 3 total gut protocol but was looking for the 4th week.
Nancylynn says
The last couple months we have been following a full plan during the first week of a month. So in April we followed Vol 10 but created a spreadsheet to adapt it for Gut Protocol. Here’s a link to the spreadsheet – https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1flZJ4F9B6yNMpWI2owLufRhri8Ml902ROSBuqX5TAHc/copy
