The Wholesome Mama

Helping you look after your gut health, mama.

Hey friend,

Do you realise that so many sicknesses and diagnoses stem from your gut?

Growing up, I had a gluten and wheat sensitivity. After I ate a bowl of weetbix or pasta, I would instantly feel bloated and sick.

I learned over the years how to heal my gut and it was actually such a simple process.

Here's what I did:

• I eliminated my food sensitivities for a couple of years (not entirely, but mostly from my diet)
• I started to eat more whole foods and eliminate processed foods (particularly incorporating sourdough, more vegetables and protein)
• I began incorporating more fermented foods into my diet to help heal the intestinal lining of my gut
• I started introducing gluten back into my diet, but as a preference, I choose not to eat a whole lot of gluten.

To this day, I don't react to gluten or wheat as I once did. It amazes me that with a bit of intention around my diet and eating habits, I don't suffer like I once did.

​

If you're like me and you want some help with your gut health, whether you are pregnant or postpartum, then I would love to support you.
