Choosing the Right Therapeutic Diet in an Ocean of Options: Focus on GI and Immune Health
with Liz Lipski, Ph.D., CNS, BCHN®, FACN, IFMCP, LDN
Session Description
There are many therapeutic dietary approaches to working with people who have immune and digestive issues. It’s difficult to know which approach to take. This lecture will focus on current research and the clinical thought process to provide for the best therapeutic benefit. We’ll use the DIGIN model to explore when it’s best to use the FODMAP diet, Specific Carbohydrate Diet, 6-food Elimination Diet, Comprehensive Elimination Diet, Paleo-Immune, Elemental Diet, or a restorative diet for people who have several maldigestion or malabsorption.
Learning Objectives (list 3 in a measurable format):
- The attendee will be able to more easily discern which dietary plan may provide the best therapeutic outcome for a specific patient.
- Utilize root cause issues to determine recommendations
- Gain practical skills and tools to utilize in a clinical setting.
