Therapeutic Diets
Personalised therapeutic diets can be a powerful tool when used alongside nutritional therapy and functional testing. At AP Nutritional Therapy I work with clients to choose and adapt evidence‑based dietary approaches that suit their health history, symptoms and lifestyle. Therapeutic diets are never one‑size‑fits‑all; they are tailored, monitored and adjusted as you progress.
What I offer
I support a wide range of therapeutic dietary approaches, each selected for specific goals such as reducing inflammation, calming the immune system, improving digestion or supporting metabolic health. Common options include:
- Ketogenic diets for metabolic support, neurological conditions and blood sugar stability.
- Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) to reduce immune triggers and support remission in autoimmune conditions.
- Anti‑inflammatory diet focused on whole foods, omega‑3 rich sources and minimising pro‑inflammatory foods.
- Bi‑phasic approaches that combine short, targeted phases (for example an elimination phase followed by reintroduction) to identify triggers and then restore variety.
- Low FODMAP guidance for managing IBS symptoms such as bloating, pain and altered bowel habits.
- Gluten‑free and coeliac support including safe food planning, cross‑contamination advice and nutrient repletion.
- Elimination and reintroduction plans to identify food sensitivities.
- Plant‑forward and Mediterranean styles adapted for therapeutic goals such as cardiovascular and cognitive health.
- Low histamine and salicylate strategies for those with suspected chemical intolerance or mast cell activation symptoms.
Each plan is evidence‑informed and personalised to your test results, symptoms and preferences. I integrate functional testing, symptom tracking and practical meal planning so changes are sustainable and measurable.
Who benefits
Therapeutic diets can help people with:
- IBS, IBD and other digestive complaints.
- Autoimmune conditions and inflammatory flares.
- Persistent fatigue, brain fog or mood instability.
- Metabolic concerns such as insulin resistance.
- Food sensitivities, coeliac disease or suspected intolerances.
If you are already working through one of my packages, dietary changes are integrated into your programme. If you are new, we begin with a discovery call to establish priorities and the safest, most effective route forward. Your plan will always be realistic and tailored to your life.
