FODMAPs Training with Antony Haynes and Christine Bailey
About this Presentation
FODMAPs is an acronym, that refers to Fermentable Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides and Polyols. FODMAPs are small chain sugars and fibres that can be poorly digested and may contribute to a range of digestive symptoms including those linked to SIBO and IBS. The low FODMAP diet originated in Australia and was developed by a team at Monash University in Melbourne.
The low FODMAP diet is increasingly implemented to help minimise IBS and functional bowel symptoms. Following a low FODMAP diet can be a challenge without the help of a FODMAP knowledgeable practitioner. This practical therapy day will focus on providing you with the tools to further support your clients with meal plans and recipes and relevant skill sets.
This course is designed for qualified practitioners and clinicians who wish to expand or refine their existing skill sets in the use of exclusion or inclusion nutritional programmes along with other interventions to optimise the recovery from functional GI problems.
The low FODMAPs approach will be put into perspective with regard to other dietary approaches for digestive conditions, and this includes the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD) and the GAPS diet.
You will learn about how to help support individuals who need to follow this type of exclusion diet and how to help them return to a fully functioning digestive tract. This will include suggestions for how to support gut lining integrity, mucosal tolerance & digestive function as well as measures to temper chronic sympathetic overload (CSO) which is a common feature of many digestive conditions.
You will be taught about specific supplements to consider for those with SIBO and IBS symptoms.
