115: When You’re Experiencing Digestive Issues - Ashley Sauve

Untitled.png

Gut issues are on the rise, including everything from IBS, IBD, Sibo and H. Pylori. And while there are so many factors that can affect gut health, including diet and the health of your microbiome, most often, people with gut issues are recommended to go on a restrictive diet, eliminating entire food groups and often triggering disordered eating habits.

Ashley Sauve takes a different approach. She tackles gut healing without restrictive diets, instead focusing on lifestyle factors such as stress and trauma, as well as functional testing to give her the answers she needs for her clients. If you’re dealing with any kind of digestive discomfort or condition, and are feeling nervous about having to eliminate all of your favourite foods--tune in, and discover how to heal your gut without dieting.
