Clinical Applications for The Elimination Diet

Using diet to find the root cause

Working from a holistic approach, your goal is to look for the root cause of the symptoms that your clients are experiencing. What happens when your normal protocol doesn't work? You've tried removing refined foods, changing their sleep patterns and improving digestion, but the symptoms are still there. An elimination diet is a proven approach that can help determine the root cause of many common symptoms : headaches, fatigue, rashes and more.

This course will give any health practitioner the resource and extra education "brush up" to confidently work with clients, create protocols, and produce content for their audience.

Having the opportunity to take Fiore Health’s “Clinical Applications for Therapeutic Diets” was an extremely valuable learning experience, especially as a new practitioner. I found that this course took the knowledge I learned through my education, brought it all together, while adding important insights and up to date research on each of the diets discussed: The Ketogenic Diet, Paleo, Autoimmune Paleo, Vegan and Vegetarianism and Intermittent Fasting. Upon completion of the course, I feel more up to date in my knowledge and more confident in my understanding of the client contexts in which to apply these different diets therapeutically, the different pros and cons of each, as well as what issues and contraindications to look for when implementing each of these diets into client protocols. I am extremely happy with the overall experience and can’t wait to see what else Fiore Health has in store.

Does this sound familiar?

  • I have clients that have already done a food sensitivity test, but they are still experiencing symptoms

    While IgG Food Sensitivity Tests may offer insight into specific foods that irritate the individual, many tests result in multiple false positives and negatives, meaning that the client might remove foods that do not need to be removed at all, or miss the foods that may be causing the symptoms. Using an elimination diet is a surefire way to pinpoint which foods are causing the issue, as each food is re-introduced one at a time.

  • I know that my education in holistic nutrition has provided me with a knowledge base that is valuable, but I wish I had access to more educational resources on in-depth topics. I find health concerns arise with clients that I only have the basic foundational knowledge of and wish I had access to educational and informational resources to fill gaps

    Use this course to dive deeper into the the elimination diet. We designed this course specifically for practitioners who have a foundational understanding of nutrition.

  • I have no idea how to apply the elimination diet in my nutrition practice. I may have learned it in school, but I am still unsure when to use it and how to walk someone through it

    Each module is designed to give you an introduction to the diet, how it works and what foods are OK for that approach. Then, we dive deeper into mechanisms and clinical applications. Finally, there are handouts and meal plans that you can put to use right away with your clients.
