Why do the gut programme?
The programme is based upon the 5 R’s
- Remove any potential harmful micro-organisms which may be residing in your gut. Stripping back the diet of commonly known foods that are problematic to the gut and may be burdening your system. Follow a nutrient rich whole food diet with easy to follow recipes to allow the gut time to heal and restore optimal function.
- Replace and support your digestive enzymes to help your body to fully digest the foods you eat. Sometimes our digestive enzyme function can get depleted through a multiude of diet and lifestyle factors which we will address during this programme.
- Re-incolute your beneficial bacteria. Having a diverse microbiome is responsible for 70% of your immune function and for the manufacture of many of our vitamins. Having a good plant rich varied diet provides beneficial prebiotic fibres which feed your good bacteria. We also encourage fermented food and drinks and provide easy recipes to making your own. This s a sure way to support your gut immune health.
- Repair the gut wall (mucosa). Often we can end up with a ‘leaky gut’ through endo toxins in our foods, water supply, certain medications, environmental toxins and other lifestile factors. This can cause other systemic health problems and lead to auto immune diseases, allergies, and many of todays modern diseases. Using simple easy to follow recipes and supplements within the programme to help to heal the gut wall and protect it from further damage is an important part of the gut transformation programme.
- Retain the nutrients and gut bacteria and enjoy a new level of gut immune health. Getting rid of harmful foods and unwanted habits is addressed so that you can leave the programme better equipped to manage and look after your gut health.
Whether you suffer from acid reflux, a feeling of fullness after meals, IBS, bloating, excessive gas, belching, constipation and/or diarrhoea, this programme will help you identify some of the root causes and help you on your journey to better health.
