Omnivore
Enjoy balanced meals featuring meats, fish, and vegetables while methodically uncovering the foods that may trigger your symptoms so you can take back control of your life.
How It Works
To feel better, you need to know what's making you feel bad. Epicured’s FODMAP Program starts with eliminating high-FODMAP foods to give your gut a break. Then, you methodically reintroduce them one at a time to identify your personal triggers so you can finish your journey knowing exactly what works for your body.
PROGRAM DETAILS
Your Journey, Phase by Phase
Embark on a step-by-step journey designed to identify your
triggers
and restore your
digestive health so you can enjoy lasting relief and feel your
best again.
1
Elimination Phase
Start with our Elimination Phase with meals that have been prepared without any FODMAP foods. Elimination typically takes 2 weeks and can take up to 8 weeks.
75% Symptom Free
After 2 weeks check-in with yourself and a registered
dietician to see if you feel 75% symptom free.
Feeling Better?
If you feel 75% symptom free, you’re ready for our
Reintroduction Phase, when we’ll start to reintroduce
FODMAP foods into your meals to discover what’s causing
your symptoms.
Not Quite Better Yet?
If you’re still feeling symptoms, more discovery is needed
over another 2 weeks before starting the Reintroduction
Phase. Keep in mind the Elimination Phase can take up to 8
weeks.
2
Reintroduction Phase
After you’re 75% symptom free, the Reintroduction Phase begins. During this phase, you’ll introduce one FODMAP food at a time to discover what’s causing your symptoms. The rest of your meal will stay the same.
Challenge Items
These “Challenge Items” will each be tested over 3 day
periods.
Lactose: Yogurt, Fructose: Asparagus, Sorbitol: Dried Apricots, Mannitol: Celery, Fructan: Couscous, Fructan: Garlic, Fructan: Onion, Fructan: Leek, GOS: Pinto Beans
Day 1: Single portion
Day 2: Double portion
Day 3: Triple portion
If at any point symptoms appear stop the reintroduction of this Challenge Item. For example, if symptoms appear on Day 1: Single portion, stop the process. Allow yourself at least one day before reintroducing the next challenge item.
If you’re symptomatic to all Challenge Items even in the smallest amounts, contact your registered dietician.
