The ReNew Food Plan
What is the ReNew Food Plan?
The ReNew Food Plan proposed by a Functional Medicine Practitioner is a short-term, therapeutic approach followed for a specific amount of time, often used as a first step in:
- Ridding the body of the most common foods that cause inflammation
- Identifying food allergies, sensitivities, intolerances, and triggers
- Eliminating foods with potentially harmful components
- Providing nutritional support for the body’s detoxification system
The ReNew Food plan centers on removing processed foods with sugar, grains, and dairy–the main source of most food sensitivities–as well as artificial sweeteners and processed chemicals. As a result of removing these foods and chemicals from the diet, the body’s detoxification system will be better supported.
Why ReNew?
The ReNew Food Plan is a nutritional pathway to health for those who have autoimmune, gastrointestinal, neurological, and other chronic health conditions. This plan is designed as a “whole systems reboot” to set up an individual on a renewed path to wellness. It helps support healing by removing common food triggers that are contributing to metabolic dysfunction while providing essential nutrients that are needed for health and vitality. It provides a way of eating that reduces intake of all sweeteners and processed foods, lowers inflammation, and improves the body’s ability to eliminate harmful substances. It places a strong emphasis on eating whole foods for life and avoiding those foods that impair the body’s ability to function properly.
