Would you be a good candidate for this protocol?

 

• Are so called healthier foods making you sick?

• Are you unable to go without reintroducing eliminated foods?

• Are you unable to reintroduce HIGH FODMAP as expected?

• Have you tried most diets but nothing seems to work?

• If you've done a trail of the full elimination diet, it didn't help, it's time!

• YES, if you want to just CUT TO THE CHASE, it's time!

As a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and a trained Certified Leap Therapist, I can help you with a very PERSONALIZED approach than most other health professionals do out there!

 

This diet protocol is 100% INDIVIDUALIZED as it is based on advance blood testing for food-sensitivities. Did you know that food-sensitivities are also be very helpful in controlling many chronic inflammatory diseases and autoimmune diseases?

​

Lets pause duct-tapping these symptoms, which is not a long-term solution, and let's find ways to heal with your reactive/sensitive foods.

​

LEAP dietary protocol has helped thousands of patients accross the country and have turned their years of suffering into happy and healthy future. LEAP MRT is not a diagnostic test, but is a helpful tool for identifying food sensitivities that may be impacting your health. WHY WAIT when we have a solution to the problem? 

​

STEP 1- Getting to know you- with your health history and taking a "Symptom Survey Score". This gives a good starting point to see if this test is a right fit for you and how much inflammation is in your body. 

​

 

STEP 2- Discover your food-sensitivity with a simple patented blood work, called the Mediator Release Test (MRT). MRT measures how much inflammation your body produces when different foods and chemicals are present. We test for a total of 170 foods and chemicals.

​

When our body's defense soldiers called white blood cells come into contact with something that they see as a threat, they release some chemical weapons (called mediators, has some with funny names like cytokines, interleukins, etc). These accumulate in the body, causing inflammation, and you can experience all these negative effects like digestive issues, headaches, migraines, aches and pains, low energy levels and a myraid of other symptoms which impacts your quality of life. 

​

​

STEP 3- We start you on your blood-specific, "ultra anti-inflammatory diet called LEAP protocol"- LEAP stands for Lifestyle Eating and Performance Protocol.
