What’s the number one mistake parents make with diet changes? Many parents may start a diet on their own, and they haven’t done testing, but they heard that, oh, maybe a gluten free diet is good. But it’s not just gluten free that’s going to work without gut healing first. So if the child has something called a leaky gut condition, then the junctions of the gut lining are not tight and they’re spaced out so foods can pass through those junctions, and that’s a leaky gut.
And then if we don’t heal that by going gluten free, well, it’s not going to make the most progress. In addition, many families don’t go gluten free one hundred percent. They think, oh, it’s okay if a child goes to a party and they just get a little piece of pizza. They don’t realize what this does without a scientifically backed protocol.
So it’s not just going gluten free. It’s working on the health of the gut. It’s identifying where the imbalances are because every child is different. And it might not just be gluten free.
It may be dairy free as well. And not to go to soy or rice, but to go to foods that are going to work best and be most beneficial nutritionally for the child. And this is why diet only works when paired with gut healing. And gut healing starts when you identify the root causes of what is imbalanced in this child’s gut.
We are all uniquely made, and we have different vulnerabilities.
So it is not a one size fits all approach.
