Nope.

Once the root cause of your symptoms have been identified, it’s highly likely those symptoms can be minimized or resolved This program uses specific testing to help you understand what your body is going through, and then creates a personalized, science-informed plan with the tools that will help you reduce symptoms and allow your body to do healing work.

False.

Actually, it is most likely you have too little stomach acid.  Our stomach acid is extremely corrosive…it is acid, after all, and it needs to be strong and there needs to be enough to properly break down our food.  However, even one drop of acid that gets into the wrong place (i.e. our esophagus) will cause irritaton and pain.  The esophagus has a little “trap door” at the bottom, where it attaches to the stomach, that stays shut when our stomach has enough acid, but when our stomach acid is low, that door can prop open, allowing even a single drop of powerful stomach acid to jump up into the esophagus, which then causes irritation.  And too little stomach acid may be one of the reasons for your digestive issues.

Noooooo!!

Drinking large amounts of water within 30 minutes of eating will actually dilute your stomach acid, which then slows down the digestion of your meal.  It doesn’t do anything to help you lose weight, in fact, you may end up gaining weight by doing this continually, since this may set you up for long-term digestive issues when your gut doesn’t have enough acid to break down food and it sits in your gut and ferments.  Fermentation is great for brewing beer and wine….your stomach should not be fermenting your food!

Wrong.

Friend, I know it can seem like it’s not a big deal today, but I can assure you, things like diabetes, autoimmune conditions, or even cancer don’t show up in one day.  They all started with little things that were likely brushed off until one day they had compounded and snowballed into something much more serious.  70% of your immune system is in your gut, so when your gut doesn’t function properly, what does that say for your immune health?  The job of your gut is to properly break down the food you eat to prepare your body to use it to keep you healthy….and when your gut cannot break down, or absorb your food, that means you are not getting the nutrients your body needs to stay healthy and prevent disease in the future.  Your body was designed to heal, it wants to heal….pay attention to the signals it is giving you!
