Will Avoiding Food Fix Your Bloat?

My client Kristy was bloated, constipated, and miserable. Making it worse was that she ended up with a super restrictive diet. Yet she was STILL feeling six months pregnant after eating and struggling to have bowel movements.

She had fallen into a trap I see a lot: believing that removing a food is going to fix your bloat for good. But typically this just leads you to removing more and more foods and blaming yourself when your symptoms don’t go away.

Kristi was miserable because she didn’t really enjoy eating anymore, despite loving to cook, and she was tired of being bloated, constipated… And tired

Here’s what she did instead of removing more food:

made sure she what eating enough food: surprisingly when she started eating more she started having better bowel movements and energy improved (I see that ALL the time, even though it might seem counterintuitive).

✅ supported healthy gut bacteria: we found from a stool test that she had really low levels, so we supported with targeted supplements and probiotic foods

✅ boosted minerals: she was burning through minerals with lots of exercise and high stress job, incorporating daily mineral mocktails helped reduce her bloating

By focusing on supporting her gut and body with food and target supplements she slowly started to feel fine when she ate, minimal bloating

Her confidence around food was improving and she decided to add back a couple foods and was pleasantly surprised when she felt fine eating them!

Kristy is not an unusual case. I see clients eat foods like gluten, dairy, beans, and even enjoy some drinks again without issues because we focused on supporting their gut.

It’s totally possible for you too. If you’re ready to enjoy more food again without the bloat head over to the link in bio to learn more about the Gut Jumpstart, where you’ll get a stool test and plan to start feeling better again.
