Summary

It is simple to embrace traditional ways of eating when there are no food groups that are off-limits to you.  But when you or someone in your family lives with a food allergy or sensitivity, even meals made with the simplest of ingredients can become a challenge.  As a mother and functional medicine practitioner who has walked the path of food sensitivities with her own child and many patients, I knew Dr. Ashley Turner would be the perfect person to join me in this conversation!  We also delve into the topic of supplementation.  In holistic and functional medicine spheres, it can be easy to get overwhelmed at the vast array of supplement recommendations and options.  Dr. Ashley shares her simplified approach to supplementation that won’t break the bank.  Whether there are food sensitivities in your house or not, you’ll learn so much from this episode about gut healing, the immune system, beneficial supplements, food sourcing, and more!

In this episode, we cover:

  • Replacing dairy milks with DIY options
  • How you can make sourdough bread without gluten
  • Making dairy-free yogurt at home
  • Sourcing quality dairy-free and gluten-free ingredients
  • Tips for finding local food sources
  • Nature’s multivitamin: the one food you should consider adding to your daily diet
  • A minimalistic, whole-foods approach to supplements
  • Ashley’s process of figuring out exactly what healing her daughter needed
  • Going beyond food sensitivity testing to get to the root cause
  • The best supplements to have on hand to use when needed
