food identity.
What is your food identity? What are your aversions? Likes…Dislikes? What are your food intolerances, allergies and sensitivities? You won’t be forced into eating foods you don’t enjoy or that make you uncomfortable. Enjoy food while nurturing and nourishing your body and overall wellness.
When you meet with me, we will review your food identity and find what energy fits you best. Review the sections below for more insight on your food identity.
Allergens/Sensitivities.
With hundreds, even thousands of substances we are allergic to, it is important to know what your allergens are to keep you safe and your body pure. Various allergies expose themselves with one or many reactions. Some substances do not cause an allergic reaction but our bodies are ‘sensitive’ to them. They can cause other symptoms that make us uncomfortable. When identifying your allergies and/or food sensitivities, please specify the intolerance/allergen/sensitivity and type of reaction. Some examples of food intolerances/allergies/sensitivities are, but not limited to:
Gluten
Citrus Foods
Tomatoes
Peanuts, Walnuts, Hazelnuts, etc.
Lactose
Shellfish
Greasy, Salty, Sweet
Aversions.
Food Aversions consist of the foods you do not want to eat because of the taste, texture, potency of a certain flavor, color, consistency. It is okay not to eat the things we absolutely don’t like and eat more of the things we absolutely love. Some examples of food aversions are:
Salt
Pepper/Spicey
Sweet
Bitter
Sour
Tangy
Consistency (Slimy, Crunchy, Gelatinous, Lumpy, Greasy, Dry)
Smell
