Description

What do you do after you figure out your food intolerances? In this episode of Beginnings & Breakthroughs, JJ coaches Nicoleta, a community member whose Virgin Diet experience led her to discover multiple food sensitivities—and lose 30 pounds in the process. Bloating, stomach pain, gas, digestive upset—these were all things Nicoleta was dealing with prior to going on The Virgin Diet. After eliminating the Hi-FI foods in Cycle 1 and experiencing weight loss, better sleep, and many other amazing benefits, she reintroduced the foods only to discover she didn't really have a problem with them; that is unless she continued to eat those foods every day. Suddenly the gut symptoms were back. The dose makes the poison, as they say. JJ advises on what to do in this situation, and shares simple gut health hacks Nicoleta (and you!) can do to improve symptoms so she may be able to occasionally enjoy certain foods without any digestive trouble. You'll learn about foods that can trigger autoimmune symptoms and leaky gut (and the gut-healthy foods to swap them with), why balanced gut flora is so important to health and weight loss goals, and the dramatic changes you can experience in your gut health when you commit to a stress-reducing meditation practice.
