We believe that a healthy gut is foundational to overall wellness, and understanding how to support your digestive system can make all the difference in your health and energy levels.
This week-long initial step is crucial for successfully restoring gut health. Gradually reducing sugar, caffeine, and alcohol before the elimination phase is essential to prevent any drastic adjustments. This approach helps maintain mood stability and allows your gut to adapt to the upcoming changes. Additionally, this phase serves as the foundation for preparing for the subsequent stages of the process.
The three-week phase is dedicated to healing the gut. During this time, we will remove certain foods from your diet while incorporating supplements that promote recovery. You will be fully supported throughout this process to ensure success, without the pressure of striving for perfection. As you move through this phase, you will begin to experience the positive effects of the purification process.
This phase is the most crucial, as it allows us to identify how your body and gut respond to specific foods or combinations of foods. By systematically reintroducing foods in four distinct groups, we can accurately determine which ones trigger your symptoms. Understanding these reactions is essential for enabling you to enjoy food with confidence moving forward. The duration of this phase may vary, typically lasting between 4 to 10 weeks.
With a clear understanding of your triggers and food reactions, we can now guide you in establishing your "New Normal." This involves integrating these insights into your lifestyle in a way that is both sustainable and manageable for the long term. Our goal is to ensure these changes become a lasting part of your life, rather than a temporary adjustment.
I would cry daily at the thought of having to eat food. Everything I ate gave me incredible discomfort; I just felt hopeless. This negative relationship with food started to impact my mental health so I decided I needed to find some professional help. I feel so lucky I found this Gut Health Program. Initially, I felt weary of what could actually change, but the way it all unfolded, here I am 6 months after the program ended and not only is my gut healed, but I’m no longer afraid of food and can eat a variety of foods that I could not before. My coach guided me through a specific elimination diet followed by slowly reintroducing food groups. This helped me find out what was causing my symptoms so now I know how to eat for the rest of my life! Don’t let yourself stay stuck. Just do it!
When I started the Gut Health Program, I was a wreck. I suffered from IBS-D and it was really affecting my lifestyle. I couldn’t leave the house with my family for fun things and it even impacted my ability to work. I went to various doctors but no one could figure out what was happening. Immediately upon starting, I felt so connected to my coach. She really listened to everything I had been going through and I felt safe. Over several months, I was able to identify some of the reactions I was having and I felt such relief, not just physically but also emotionally. She was able to help me find my ‘new normal’ and now I can live my life once again! My gut health has vastly improved! I was able to lose weight and have tons of energy again to keep up with my kids! If you feel you have tried everything, you haven’t until you do this Gut Health program. There is nothing else like it!
I’ve done several ‘elimination diets’ before but they never solved anything. I never knew what to do after eliminating foods; I’d just eventually go back to eating what I was before and then starting the cycle again. Not this time. What makes this Gut Health Program so unique and actually helpful is the process. It’s more than just elimination. There are segments where you’re focusing on bringing back foods in certain categories at specific times all while tracking how your body and gut reacts. Meeting my coach weekly to discuss my sensitivities and get a game plan of the next steps kept me sane and balanced. She really helped me understand what was happening so I was educated instead of just going through the motions. Without this program, I’d still be in the yo-yo cycle I was stuck in before and that was maddening. Highly recommend this program for gut health improvement that is for the long term
