Thinking of following a low carb diet? Think again!

Carbohydrates are essential for healthy digestion. Foods that contain carbohydrate include fruits, grains, certain vegetables and even legumes such as beans.

Carbs give us energy! And our body needs enough energy in order to keep digestion moving.

Carbohydrates also often include fiber. Fiber is essential for food to digest and for us to have comfortable consistency bowel movements 💩
Fiber also does a great job at keeping us full! So if you are avoiding carbs to lose weight, you are missing out on this benefit too.

Some carbohydrate foods include prebiotics. Prebiotics are plant fibers that feed our healthy gut bacteria. And we need a variety of these so our gut can thrive! 🦠

Let this sink in… Your fear of food is likely more harmful to your digestion than any one food.

If you want to improve your gut health you have to fix your relationship with food first!

We help our clients add foods back into their diets and work on improving their digestive health for good.

Acid reflux is very common and can chase some uncomfortable symptoms. Medications are often used, but unfortunately can have many negative side effects.
This is why I always want to work with my clients to manage this with diet and lifestyle changes first!

Common triggers include foods that are high fat, acidic, or spicy; as well as caffeinated beverages and alcohol.

However you only need to limit or avoid foods if they are causing problems for YOU. Keeping a food journal and working with a Registered Dietitian can help you navigate this to follow the least restrictive diet possible.

Staying hydrated is one of the simplest (yet most difficult for many) things you can do to support healthy digestion. Here are some tricks to keep you on track:

🔹Start your day with 1-2 glasses of water when you wake up. Have this before your coffee!
🔹Carry a water bottle with you that you enjoy drinking from. I find having an insulated one that keeps my water cold and has a straw helpful.
🔹Set reminders to drink especially on busy days. You can also get a water bottle that has times on it to keep you on track.
🔹Add some taste by selecting flavored seltzers, tea, and adding citrus, strawberries or cucumber to flavor your water.

You need these in your diet for a healthy gut:

🔹Soluble fiber: important to have healthy bowel movements, and helps slow digestion.
🔹Insoluble fiber: adds bulk to stools and helps digestion move.
🔹Probiotics: live bacteria that have benefits and can support healthy digestion.
🔹Prebiotics: plant fibers that feed healthy gut bacteria.
🔹Fluid: drinking enough fluid is critical for keeping digestion moving and with absorbing nutrients.

Are you eating the same “safe” foods over and over again to try to avoid digestive symptoms?

Having a limited diet is hurting your gut health even more!

Our gut thrives by getting a variety of foods in. Fiber (both soluble and insoluble), prebiotics and probiotics are essential for healthy digestion. Eating a variety of colors of fruits and veggies, whole grains, and legumes are some of the plant foods that can help us meet our gut health goals. But if you are following a low FODMAP diet or restricting your fiber intake, this will be next to impossible to do.

A low FODMAP diet is not meant to be followed long-term. Too many clients come to me being told to avoid FODMAPs by their doctor and then get stuck eliminating these foods long-term.

A low FODMAP diet is RESTRICTIVE and will actually make your gut health worse if followed for too long. FODMAPs are a type of carbohydrates that are rapidly digested and absorbed and may lead to symptoms such as abdominal bloating, pain, and diarrhea in some individuals.

However… foods that are high in FODMAPs are also beneficial for our gut health. Think many of our fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, and some milk products.

A low FODMAP diet should be done in 3 phases:

🔹Phase 1- Elimination: This is where high FODMAP foods are avoided or restricted in the diet.
🔹Phase 2- Reintroduction: Each of the 6 FODMAP subgroups will be added back in and symptoms will be assessed.
🔹Phase 3- Maintenance: After figuring out which groups you are not tolerating, a plan will be formed on how much your body can tolerate of each group. I find the diet becomes fairly unrestricted for most at this point!

NEVER start a low FODMAP diet without the guidance of a Registered Dietitian that is trained in providing low FODMAP diet counseling first. And I always recommend using the resources! 😊

Considering trying a low FODMAP diet? We can help determine if this is the right option for you.

Struggling with digestive symptoms and don’t know what to do next? This is the equation for a healthy gut in terms of nutrition:

🔹A diet with variety. This includes colorful fruits and veggies, grains, protein, healthy fats, and dairy and/or fortified dairy alternatives.
🔹Soluble and insoluble fiber. Soluble fiber helps slow digestion and helps with nutrient absorption. Insoluble fiber helps food move through the digestive tract and adds bulk to the stool.
🔹Staying hydrated. The best options include water, seltzer, and decaf tea. Fruits and veggies can also help us stay hydrated.
🔹Limiting alcohol. Excessive alcohol is harmful and an irritant to our entire digestive tract including the accessory organs (liver, pancreas).
🔹Not stressing about food. If you are following a restrictive diet or don’t know what foods may be triggers for you this can cause a lot of anxiety around food. Food does not digest well when the body is under a lot of stress.

Nourishing your body with a variety of foods, not cutting more foods out, is what will help improve your gut health!
This starts with how we build our plate. At most meals, you want to include most food groups.

This is what I focus on:
🔹Include protein- chicken, turkey, fish, beef, pork, eggs, lentils, tofu, and tempeh are great options.
🔹Choose high fiber grains such as quinoa, whole wheat pasta, brown rice, and whole grain bread.
🔹Add colorful fruits and vegetables. Choose a variety of colors!
🔹Don’t forget to add a healthy fat such as olive oil, avocado, nuts, and seeds.

Avoiding gluten, dairy, certain fruits or vegetables, and/or FODMAPs?
Eating a variety of foods will help improve your digestive health and this is impossible if you are following a restricted diet to manage your digestive symptoms.
