FAQ

  • How do I know this is for me?

    This program is based on 7+ years of coaching people at different stages of this process. If you are recently diagnosed with a condition that would benefit from an elimination diet, it's likely that is all the information you received. This is intended to give you clear, actionable steps to keep you "out of the weeds". This is NOT for you if you have not been in contact with a medical professional to rule out or clarify underlying conditions. It will likely not be harmful but may be unnecessary.

  • Will this work for other allergies (food or seasonal)?

    I do not infer any direct causation and the client takes all responsibility for the implementation of the information. But because our body is a complex system, I find that it is almost impossible to change one thing without seeing the impact in other systems. Therefore, it is safe to assume, this approach will likely have other benefits than reducing the initial symptoms. As your body (specifically your gut) heals and you continue to eat foods that help you feel your best, the outcomes can be dramatic.

  • Do I need a referral to do this?

    While you don't need a referral, as I am not making any specific dietary recommendations, simply outlining the process and sharing tips to navigate based on observed experiences of other patients, I always advise following up with a medical professional and working with your Doctor to yield the best results.

  • What is not included that I may want?

    This course is intended to be a high-level overview of what steps are needed to find the foods that help you feel best. -This is not a personalized meal plan (sample menus are available on the sites I include) because there are many considerations- many of which we will be discovering during this process- before you can build a custom diet. -This can be completed as a group and I am happy to discuss facilitating that but additional community support can be located in the links I include in Additional Resources. -1:1 coaching is not included in the price of the self-study course but can be scheduled via email ([email protected]).
