Have you ever felt like you've tried every gut healing diet out there — low FODMAP diet, paleo diet, gluten-free diet, low histamine diet, or a candida cleanse — and still deal with stubborn symptoms? Symptoms like...

Bloating, fatigue, constipation.

Skin issues like acne or eczema.

Hormonal symptoms like PMS or mood swings.

Or mystery symptoms your doctors can't find a cause for.

If you've been relying on food restrictions to heal your gut — or hoping that cutting just one more food will finally fix your digestion, hormones, or skin — here's the truth:

Food restrictions alone cannot heal your gut.

Yes, a gut health diet may bring relief from symptoms, but it's not a long-term solution. If food restrictions so far have not healed your gut or symptoms you're trying to correct, then there IS no mystery, perfect diet out there waiting for you.

The real issue isn't the food you're eating (or not eating) - it's the fact that you're not looking OUTSIDE of diet to the hidden root causes driving your symptoms.

If you’re only looking at food restrictions address the real root causes behind your gut problems, you’re only scratching the surface.

In today’s episode, I’m revealing:

• Why food restrictions may reduce symptoms but never reverse gut dysfunction
• The biological reason your food sensitivity list may be getting longer
• The 4 overlooked root causes that stall gut healing — even on a perfect diet
• The specific lab tests that can literally SHOW you YOUR specific path to healing

Healing should never feel like a never-ending guessing game of whack-a-mole.

If you're ready for real gut healing, not just symptom suppression, then this episode is for you.
