AND measures:
— how you digest fat

Really, anyone can benefit from the GI MAP, but its especially helpful for those *trying to figure out their health* and needing REAL ANSWERS 👏
More specifically, it can be helpful for those with:

Then, with my holistic + psychological approach, you’ll follow protocols utilizing food, herbs, supplements & lifestyle/mindset tailored to YOU based off what we see from the GI MAP results (and your health history/life right now etc.), so you can live symptom-free with a diverse diet, lots of energy, and more!
