Doing everything right, but more fibre only makes you feel worse?
You asked for it, so I'm putting it together.
Fibre for Grumpy Guts is coming.
Maybe you’re having oats for breakfast, seeds on everything and plenty of veg, and you’re still bloated or waiting for a decent poo. Maybe you added more fibre because everyone said it would help, and you felt worse. Or you’ve cut out onion, garlic, bread and beans and you’re still not comfortable.
Often the trouble isn’t fibre itself. It’s the mix of fibre types, how much, and the order you add them in.
Imagine easier poos, less bloating, and enjoying more of the foods you love.
That’s what my new mini course will help you with: which fibre to start with, how much and when, and how to build up from there.
Grab my free Fibre for Grumpy Guts starter guide and I’ll add you to the waitlist too. Waitlist members get first access on Wednesday 11 November and the founding price of $37 for 3 days only, plus two live check-ins with me. After that, it’s $57 for everyone.
