Digestive issues can take over your entire life.
Symptoms like bloat, gas, constipation, diarrhea, “reacting” to all the foods, fatigue, heartburn etc. dictate what, where and how you eat. Eating should be easy, food should be enjoyable….but sometimes, it’s just not.
You can “clean up” your diet, and STILL have symptoms. (If this is you, you’re not alone - I have been there!)
Why?! Because…..
It’s so much MORE than food.
When we experience symptoms from food, it only makes sense to blame the food. Then, next step is typically to take said foods out of the diet. But…what if it wasn’t the food creating your symptoms?
Despite temporary relief, the longer we restrict, the less diversity we have in the gut, and the longer we will experience symptoms, develop new ones, and worsen our relationship to food. A lot of the time, food is just the tip of the iceberg.
What often gets ignored (and is the reason for prolonged symptoms or inaccurate diagnoses) is:
what is going on MICROBIALLY (beneficial bacteria/overgrowths/infections etc.) and FUNCTIONALLY (enzymes, motility, stomach acid etc.) in the gut
ANDhow digestion is affected by the brain (thoughts/feelings/emotions), stress, and how we think/feel about food (our relationship to food).
Thus, we HAVE to address what is underneath in order to understand the root of the issue and ACTUALLY remedy symptoms long-term.
That’s why I always combine an evidence-based, holistic, and psychological approach to nutrition, using behavioural change techniques, so we can address so much MORE than just food and get you living WITHOUT symptoms and WITH all the food!
My process
(tested & proven)
Step 1:

You want….
