As Dr Natasha Cambell Mcbride states "In healthy gut flora, a digestive disorder cannot develop."

So have I got your attention?  

If you're going around in circles with your health, feel like you've tried all the things for either small niggly symptoms or major signs of disturbed health and just stuck with where to from here, coming back to your gut health is likely where you need to turn.

Yes, your gut microbiome and gut integrity is at the core of your overall health and wellbeing.

When it comes to supporting all aspects of gut healing, the GAPS diet is one that deserves more air time. It does overwhelm most at the initial thought of it (me included), but if you're committed to allowing the healing to occur and supporting all areas of your health, particularly the way you function and feel mentally, this is a game changer.

Cue one of Australia's top 'GAPS Diet' practitioners, Elyse Comerford.

Elyse Comerford, founder of Well Belly Health Clinic, is an Integrative Nutritionist and Certified GAPS (Gut & Psychology/Physiology Syndrome) Practitioner, Keynote Speaker, Mentor, and most importantly, Mum to Dylan.

Elyse’s primary focus for the past decade has been in private practice, helping thousands of families overcome a whole host of health issues through the implementation of nourishing and healing principles, reducing toxic stress, and the GAPS protocol. 

Elyse has developed online programs, seminars and retreats that have changed the lives of thousands. Elyse’s stress-less approach to health has been game changing for many, taking health from overwhelming to sustainable for every day busy families. 

Elyse has worked closely with Quirky Cooking’s Jo Whitton for the past 7 years, creating programs, retreats, and collaborating on Jo’s latest cookbook, ‘Simple Healing Foods’. You can also hear Elyse speak on a number of podcasts including ‘A Quirky Journey’, ‘Low-Tox Life’ and ‘Primal Alternative Podcast’. 

Elyse’s approach is based on taking the normal "guilt, blame, shame and deprivation” and completely turning it on its head, focussing instead on healing, nourishing, and listening to the body.
