The Digestive Enzyme Solution

Food intolerance and IBS are usually super easy to rectify using a food elimination process. Within 2 weeks you’re usually symptom free and ready to start food testing and reintroduction. But, sometimes digestive discomfort can be caused by more than just a reaction to foods – it can be caused when your body doesn’t produce enough digestive enzymes to break down your food. Symptoms of this include bloating, floating stool, nausea, indigestion, aches and pains, stomach pains, blood sugar imbalance, belching, feeling full before you’ve finished a meal and constipation.

Enzymes are essential for every cell in your body – in fact all of your physiological processes. They are composed of amino acids and there are around 3000 different ones. But, those are just the enzymes that have been discovered. Some scientists believe that there may be more than 50000 more yet to be identified.

Enzymes are responsible for reducing inflammation, energy production, nutrient absorption, detoxification, breaking down fats and balancing hormones. A deficiency in these enzymes can cause all sorts of discomfort.

According to Dr. Edward Howell you are born with limited enzyme producing capabilities and if you don’t get enough enzymes from the food you eat then a lot of strain is put on your digestive system to produce enough to break down your food. Most digestive and metabolic enzymes are produced by your pancreas.

A typical western diet is made up of processed and cooked foods. This, along with the overuse of medicines and drugs like antibiotics, can lead to a massive imbalance in your ability to breakdown and absorb nutrients from your food, leading to chronic health conditions and deficiencies. Not only this, but your immune system starts in your gut, so any deficiency in the gut can greatly impair your immune defences.

The best way to get enzyme rich foods is to eat them raw. So adding a high raw element to your diet is always advisable. The use of mouth washes and chewing gum can affect the enzyme in saliva, further causing digestive upset.

Some foods contain specific digestive enzymes, these include sprouted seeds and legumes, papaya, pineapple, avocado, coconut and extra virgin olive oil, mango, kiwi and grapes.

A lot of raw fruit and veg is termed as “pre-digested” food, so its very gentle on your digestive system. In fact, most people spend 80% of their energy simply digesting food! The digestive system wasn’t designed to be so over worked which could be why a large portion of the population suffer with low energy levels and fatigue.

The use of supplemented digestive enzymes could be beneficial for those suffering with digestive discomfort and mist be taken with a meal. They are safe but I would always recommend speaking with a qualified professional to asses your symptoms first before taking anything you don’t really need to be taking.

More Success With IBS and Food Intolerance

IBS – Irritable Bowel Syndrome can be a chronic and debilitating illness which, according to doctors, has no cure and you basically just have to live with it. But what if you haven’t been “diagnosed” with IBS but are still suffering from similar symptoms?

Its still frustrating, painful, embarrassing at times and I’m sure pretty miserable!

I’m proud to say I have a 100% success rate with treating both IBS and general food intolerance. There is no need to suffer and literally, within 14 days, symptoms can be gone.

I’m not saying I have a cure – I haven’t. There isn’t one. But it is possible to live completely without symptoms and be in full control. Each case is always different which is why there isn’t a blanket approach for this. I have just received a lovely testimonial from a client who has been suffering for years with food intolerance.

Toxins built up from these illnesses not only affect you physically, but also mentally and emotionally too. It’s often quite a profound experience when you finally detoxify and get rid of those symptoms.

“After suffering for years with bloating, constipation and tummy pain I stumbled across Tonic on Facebook. I read through lots of her recipes and posts and decided to give it a go…..I had a chat with her on Skype and instantly warmed to her, somehow already knowing this was my path in life and was going to help me! Well a few months later and WOW! I am a changed person, all symptoms have gone (initially within 14 days!) and even my skin and hormones are feeling and looking fabulous! This is a change for life and one I’m very happy to keep going with! Lynsey is there for you every step of the way, its like gaining a fairy Godmother! Years of trying different medication from doctors who don’t care and don’t listen are a thing of the past. Natural plant based is the easy obvious choice for me and my family now. I can’t thank Lynsey enough xx”

I deal with new food intolerance clients every week. Some who have been through the medical system and even had invasive surgery to find out the problem! No matter how chronic you think your symptoms are, you’ll be surprised at how easy it is to sort out.

Calling all REVOLUTIONARIES!!! Wrap up the Guilt this Christmas.

MERRY XMAS FELLOW REVOLUTIONARIES!!

So its all about the count down to christmas…sick of hearing it yet…? NOPE! ME NEITHER!!

I love christmas but I know for many it can be a nightmare when it comes to lifestyle and diet. Feelings of guilt about that 5th glass of Prosecco, or that 3rd slice of cake, or that second helping of creamed leeks….You’ve failed, you’ve “broken” your diet so you might as well crack open another bottle and unwrap 10 more Quality Street…right?

WRONG! Lets just chill the FUDGE out here. If you’re still “dieting” you need to bring your bad self right up to date. Dieting is OUT my friend. It’s all about the LIFESTYLE.

Since when did dieting ever work out for you? I mean long term? That time in 2002? Ah yeah, good times! But, we’re going into 2015 and while there’s nothing to say you really must change your ways at the strike of midnight on December 31st, it might be a good time to do away with negativity and harmful lifestyle choices. Why not make 2015 and beyond your years of enlightenment? Why not take the opportunity to get SAVVY about nutrition once and for all.

Chuck out those meal replacement shakes, and those crappy microwave meals, and those supplements that profess to contain a gajillion servings of fruit and veg (yep, you know you’ve been conned. Just freaking admit it).

You won’t be fooled by diet companies that tell you avocados and nuts are “high fat, eat their biscuits and chocolate bars instead”, you won’t meal replace with putrid, chemical filled shakes or juices, you won’t fast and you won’t restrict.

In 2015 you could make the connection between food and health. See beyond the bathroom scales. Finally break the vicious circle of dieting and actually learn to enjoy food for once – and lose weight without trying if that’s your bag.

Christmas, birthdays, meals out, holidays…they’re all part of LIFE. Start eating with STYLE. And you are fully allowed to point your finger and lovingly laugh at your friends still pretending that chalky juice filled them up.

Get on over to the Tonic Nutrition Facebook page and join the Revolutionaries group. 2015, the year of the SAVVY. Knowledge is power, time to do it your way.
