Step 2 – Healing Digestion
Let food be thy medicine and medicine be they food.
– Hippocrates, Circa 400 BC
If you are going to heal your digestive track, you must identify the foods that are causing the damage! The issues of nutrition, digestion, and food sensitivities has exploded in research, in medical literature, and the healthcare community. Studies indicate an intimate relationship between digestion and a host of illnesses that are seemingly unrelated. More patients are demanding to know what diet is appropriate for them.
Digestion is being linked in the medical field to many health conditions, and the list keeps growing. Heartburn, constipation, gas, and diarrhea DO NOT just impact the intestinal track. They are linked to Osteoporosis, Chronic Fatigue, Depression, Thyroid, Obesity, Autism, and Diabetes.
A food sensitivity test called the ELISA test can be done at the office or home, testing reactions to 96 foods. It is created from a few drops of blood from a finger stick. The analysis covers grains, dairy, beans, nuts/seeds, vegetables, fruits, meats, and others. The results are compiled into a report, identifying foods to be avoided. The quality of your health just got a major upgrade.
After you have completed the Comprehensive Cleanse, Healing Digestion is framed around four key steps, called the “Four R’s”. They are:
- Remove Removing harmful foods identified by the ELISA food allergy test.
- Replace Putting back crucial secretions in the digestive pathways through proper supplementation including: Stomach support, digestive enzymes, bile salts, important amino acids, pro-biotics, among others.
- Re-inoculate Eating fermented foods containing naturally occurring bacteria, getting plenty of fiber, and taking a broad-spectrum probiotic.
- Repair The lining of the GI tract becomes damaged, and key nutrients like Glutamine, Licorice Root, and Aloe are taken to help in the repair process.
