Therapeutic Meal Plans

Tara Carpenter, NC.

Nutrition Consultant specialized in helping people regain natural gut microbiome after yeast, bacterial, and viral infections.

A therapeutic meal plan utilizes traditional, healing foods that are customized to meet dietary and health needs of each person on the plan. You receive five days of breakfast, lunch, and supper with one snack each day — recipes included — this pdf document can be left on your tablet or computer for easy access or (for an additional fee) printed out and bound in a 3-ring binder that will be mailed to you.

Build a stronger, more resilient you.

Each meal adheres to principle of food combining; adding a scoop of unsalted cultured foods to meals is recommended. The aim is to eat a more strict version of what you normally eat to stop feeding any pathogenic microflora activity living in or on body due to an imbalanced inner ecosystem, provide key nutrients that can nourish and encourage the digestive tract (mouth to anus) to be a resilient, harmonious system, soothe irritable/damaged digestive tract tissue, and ease the burden/workload on detox pathways (i.e., skin, mouth, eyes).

A meal plan can be a helpful tool for your healing.

Meals are centered to be alkalizing and nutrient-dense with ingredients that can be sourced at a local organic food market or online. Soups, stews, and dishes are accentuated with root vegetables (burdock, daikon, etc.); leafy greens (kale, collards, etc.); sea vegetables (kelp, hiziki, etc.); Winter squash (kabocha, delicata, etc.); seed-like grains (amaranth, millet, etc.); protein (chia seeds, baby lima beans, wild-caught/cold-water fish, pastured meat, etc.); unsalted probiotic food; and sour fruit (lemons, cranberries, etc.).

Gluten, sugar, yeast, and pasteurized dairy-free.

Ingredients are wholesome with your healing in mind and are easy-to-digest to promote health and wellness. Life is easier with a meal plan and often the biggest challenge people face when they start a therapeutic way of eating is turning your health and nutritional recommendations into healing, well-rounded, delicious meals that can be enjoyed around the table, despite any difference(s) in eating.
