On a Dietary Protocol?
These recipes also indicate modifications that can be made to make the dish accommodate various dietary needs, including gluten free, dairy free, nut free, nightshade free, egg free, Autoimmune Paleo-friendly, and Repair and Clear Program compliant.
What is an Autoimmune Paleo Diet?
Many people who have an autoimmune condition have a compromised gut. This means that certain foods can trigger increased inflammation, making the autoimmune condition worse. The autoimmune paleo diet aims to decrease inflammation by removing certain inflammatory foods from the diet and focusing on nutrient-dense foods that aid in healing the gut lining.
What is the Repair and Clear Program?
The Repair and Clear Program is a 6-week diet and supplement regimen that aims to target and support digestion and detoxification through supporting the intestines and liver. It should only be used as prescribed by a healthcare professional.
When to Talk to a Healthcare Professional
Experiencing symptoms following meals (such as heartburn, bloating, or gas) can indicate decreased health of your stomach and gut. If you experience these symptoms, or others that seem related to food, mention them to Dr. Aaron, Dr. Rob, or Dr. Jon during your next appointment.
Wishing you a very blessed Thanksgiving with your friends and family.
