What is G.E.M.M?
IBS
The G.E.M.M. protocol (Gut Ecology & Metabolic Modulation) is a way to improve your gut and overall health by utilising your body’s own defence mechanisms and healing abilities. It utilises an inclusive diet together with effective natural therapeutics to encourage your body to heal itself. As the function of individual cells returns to normal, so too does the function of the disordered organs and systems that had allowed disease to flourish. IBS
The science of Nutrigenomics plays an important role in the programme’s success. Nutrigenomics is the science that investigates how certain food molecules are like signals that ‘talk to our genes’, promoting either health or disease, depending on what foods we eat.
As you progress through the G.E.M.M. levels, you will find symptoms disappearing as your overall state of health improves.
Will I need to eliminate foods?
Exclusion diets such as the FODMAP diet for IBS are useful to pin-point which foods are causing you issues, but don’t offer a long-term solution.
G.E.M.M. promotes a Diet of Inclusion, not Diets of Exclusion. A few foods may need to be excluded initially when embarking on G.E.M.M but the ultimate aim of the G.E.M.M. Protocol is to encourage a diverse array of minimally-processed whole foods which are introduced sequentially as you progress through the programme.
What conditions does this approach treat??
Whilst G.E.M.M. initially addresses the function of the gut, it then works to improve the function of all bodily systems. The nutrigenomically-active ingredients in the formulations together with the underlying diet help to improve the function of all the body’s cells at a fundamental level.
