Traditional Eating When You Have Food Sensitivities | Dr. Ashley Turner of Restorative Wellness

It is simple to embrace traditional ways of eating when there are no food groups that are off-limits to you. But when you or someone in your family lives with a food allergy or sensitivity, even meals made with the simplest of ingredients can become a challenge. As a mother and functional medicine practitioner who has walked the path of food sensitivities with her own child and many patients, I knew Dr. Ashley Turner would be the perfect person to join me in this conversation! We also delve into the topic of supplementation. In holistic and functional medicine spheres, it can be easy to get overwhelmed at the vast array of supplement recommendations and options. Dr. Ashley shares her simplified approach to supplementation that won’t break the bank. Whether there are food sensitivities in your house or not, you’ll learn so much from this episode about gut healing, the immune system, beneficial supplements, food sourcing, and more!
In this episode, we cover:
- Replacing dairy milks with DIY options
- How you can make sourdough bread without gluten
- Making dairy-free yogurt at home
- Sourcing quality dairy-free and gluten-free ingredients
- Tips for finding local food sources
- Nature’s multivitamin: the one food you should consider adding to your daily diet
- A minimalistic, whole-foods approach to supplements
- Ashley’s process of figuring out exactly what healing her daughter needed
- Going beyond food sensitivity testing to get to the root cause
- The best supplements to have on hand to use when needed
Dr. Ashley is a Board Certified Doctor of Holistic Health and traditionally-trained naturopath. She is certified in functional medicine and functional genomics which gives her the ability to specifically apply nutrition and nutraceutical recommendations based on a deep analysis of one’s personal genetic profile and other in-depth testing. Dr. Ashley is a homesteader and homeschooling mother of three girls.

This video was so informative for me, my son was diagnosed with EOE that began from a severe food allergy. It’s been a hard journey that he is still battling and the traditional medicine route has been very frustrating. Thank you Lisa for sharing this!🙏

For a great gluten free sourdough recipe I highly recommend the book Cannelle et Vanille Bakes Simple by Aran Goyoaga. My sister bakes it regularly and it’s gorgeous and delicious. I just had a slice this morning :).

[@afolsom685]

Hi Lisa! I so enjoy these conversations you share with us. Wonderfully informative and enjoyable. Much appreciated, so please keep them coming. Thanks bunches.

[@carolkothmann6074]

always enjoy your interviews

[@theconvert3765]

Wow this is an answer to my prayer ! I’ve been praying for a cookbook that aligns with my values with eating and this is a gift ! I’m hoping to get it soon! This was so educational and helpful thank you Lisa for hosting her !

I used Lisa's GF sourdough starter recipe using Bob Mill's 1 for 1 GF flour and was able to make GF sourdough pancakes with it. My daughter has made GF sourdough bread with the starter. We have 4 in our house with Celiac and the rest has non Celiac sensitivities. My daughter and I also have Hashimoto's and can't have dairy, even A2/A2 that our Jersey cows have. We bought some sheep and plan on milking them to see how our bodies react to their milk. We had goats before and they were really naughty and wouldn't stay in their pens, so we went with sheep 😆 They are just free range, walking around in the yard and the pasture without getting into things and being naughty like the goats were.

I like all your pod cast.

My Holistic Doctor, after many test, told me not to eat dairy, eggs, and gluten.🙈 Allergic to those foods. I love any advice that is natural. Loved this podcast.🤍

[@aprilyeno1919]

As a mom of 2, one who struggles with PANDAS/MTHFR/MCAS/LYME…. since she was 4, and is now in her teen years…. This episode spoke to my heart ♥️ Thank you for sharing this wonderful content!! Our journey looks like this and our remission is a fragile thing…. But growing stronger every day!!! ❤️💪🏻🙏🏻🌈

Pandas?

[@brittanybrown273]

I'm so happy to listen to this!! I'm just recently discovering an egg and corn intolerance after doing an extreme elimination diet. I've had psoriasis basically my whole life and it was 90% healed in a matter of weeks by eliminating eggs. I can't wait to listen!!

[@nothanksmegan]

What about just the yolks? Sometimes it’s just the white that is the issue. Best of luck!

[@brittanybrown273]

I'll try that! Thanks for the tip!

[@jackimanley3056]

For me it's just egg whites!

[@dawncozine50]

Lisa, what a great conversation! Food for thought for sure :)

[@stefanybeyer4653]

I love the recipes in Gluten Free Bread in Five Minutes a Day. I use Bob's 1:1 instead of mixing all the flours and mix it my hand.

[@dreko3]

Thank you so much for introducing these amazing people! I'm so grateful for your podcasts! I love listening to them and learning so much about the awakening of our generation to healthy living habits!

[@samanthalabreck5837]

I bought some Toups & Co makeup using your code and I can’t believe how amazing it is. I’ll never go back to traditional make up. I bought the concealer, bronzer and mascara. All are full coverage, but natural looking. ❤️ I make my own tallow face and body lotions and can’t believe I’ve gone so long not knowing how much better my skin could look. Thank you for sharing about Toups & Co.

[@teresabobbitt1319]

My fav podcast and you tube! Look forward to it each week. Thank you!

[@ktsls82]

Great segment! One thing that rarely gets mentioned is wheat allergy rather than wheat sensitivity. Some people go into anaphylaxis from wheat. I became highly allergic after giving birth to my third son. It was so random and unexpected. I had to cut wheat all the way.

[@sandracollins4716]

I appreciate your Podcast very much. The information is so good. Would like to see the product’s picture on screen. Thank you so much. I’m new to your channel"

[@ceferinocanibano6284]

I follow you because it helps to improve my English. I love your life style but I can't use your recipes because one of my children can't have fermented foods and has to cutdown his gluten. He is not allergic but this diet helps with his health problems.

[@jessrussell2825]

I have made a pretty good sourdough with Bob's 1:1. It does contain a mix of those ingredients (I cannot remember them all off the top of my head-) but I just wanted to mention when I made my starter I used organic brown rice flour- and then I would make the bread with the 1:1. I had tried many variations, and though it is not the cheapest, with a large family and limited time- it was the simplest! (Although there is potato, if that is an issue for some) My family actually could not quite tell it was gf.

[@lorim4863]

Thank you, Lisa, for this podcast! I think our son with autism has PANS and we recently saw a video by Becky Davila on You Tube when I typed herbs for autism where she discussed three herbs for PANDAS/PANS that helped her son. We've tried those along with sedating medicine and I think it's helping. We've been on a GAPS diet minus his food allergies but I've wanted to do a food sensitivity panel but our traditional medical allergist would not do that. So I'll check out her website and books.

[@CarrieF2]

So if i have a mold allergy (found by skin tests) should I be hesitant to eat fermented foods?
