COCONUT: FREE MASTER CLASS on FODMAPS 2/24/20 @ 4pm PST

_

Did you know that eating over a 2/3rd cup of coconut could upset your stomach and gut?

_

Did you know that drinking over 3.5 oz of coconut water could upset your stomach and gut?

_

I know that might sound like a lot & not possible.  But stop and take a look at all the coconut added to many “health” foods.  Coconut is in everything these days!

_

Coconut has a natural sugar alcohol called Sorbitol.

_

Coconut water has the Sorbitol & Fructan.  I will over these in my Master Class!

_

Sorbitol is a Polyol & over consumption of this natural sugar substitute could upset your stomach and gut.  Most likely give you a serious case of lead stomach!

_

You know…that feeling of having a piece of lead in your stomach, a heavy uncomfortable feeling.

_

Fructan is a longer chain sugar that humans do not have the enzymes to digest.  NOW…some Fructan is good.  It can help with the good bacteria in you gut.  BUT…moderation is the key.

_

Sorbitol is poorly & incompletely absorbed by most humans in the small intestine.  Moderation is the key.

_

Polyol are the “P” in FODMAP.

_

FODMAPs are short-chain carbs in our foods that are rapidly fermented & can be poorly absorbed.

_

I’m not saying coconut is bad for you, in fact it could work well in a balanced whole food nutrition plan.

_

What I am throwing down here is the importance of food rotation & MODERATION!

_

Don’t eat the same foods 5x a day.  Rotate the goods & your gut will be much happier 🙂
