Dr. Rinehart's 48-Hour Gut Reset Program

The Elemental Diet - An Underutilized and Multifaceted Tool for Many Gastrointestinal Annoyances

Elemental diets are powdered formulas that contain all of our necessary proteins and nutrients in their simplest, digestible forms.

Elemental diets borrow the concept of tube-feeding, but in the form of liquid shakes taken orally to meet all nutrition needs.

For instance, instead of challenging your digestive system with a heavy steak, the elemental diet contains the complete individual amino acids, already in their absorbable “elemental” form, without the need for digestive action by our stomach, pancreas, gallbladder, and more.

If you’ve ever desired a big red RESET button for your digestive system – the elemental diet does that for you.

While elemental diet programs typically involve expensive 14-day protocols – the more extended timeframe is geared toward more progressed conditions like Irritable Bowel Syndrome, SIBO, Crohn’s, Ulcerative Colitis, and other inflammatory, malabsorption syndromes.

Benefits of a 48-Hour Gut Reset

Most Americans fall in the category of eating and snacking throughout the entire day.

Keeping eating to 12 hours a day I think is a great strategy to shoot for at a baseline. Most fasting schedules look at 14-16+ hours.

Our physiology is thousands of years old, and for much of human history, we did not have ready sources of food available 24 hours a day. It could be normal to go a few days with just a handful of calories, eventually getting a score like a beehive full of honey or a hunting kill that would feed for a week.

By not engaging some of these primal systems, we’re not fully eliciting all of the protective systems available to our body.

Intermittent fasting is one way to get the most out of the modern world while honoring the physiological conditions of our ancestors.

Intermittent fasting for 14-16 hours is one of my favorite diet hacks, yet there are some exceptions when fasting for longer than 12 hours may not be right for you…
