Stiff and slowto get moving?
Getting out of bed. Getting up from a chair. Stiff knees, back and hands. You’re fine once you move around a little, so you figure it’s just getting older.
It’s not a normal part of aging. It doesn’t have to happen.

Tap anything that sounds like you.
You’re not imagining it. And it’s not just “a normal part of aging.”
That’s a lot to carry. My free monthly talk covers exactly this: inflammation, food, and how your gut ties them together.

Here’s the twist
It’s not just getting older.
“People think they’re at that stage of life where they’re starting to get stiff. They don’t realize the low grade inflammation in their body is starting that, and it doesn’t have to be there.”
“It’s not the food’s fault. We’re not meant to eat really strict diets. We need to heal the gut, so the stiffness doesn’t keep coming back.”Shalli, in her own words, trimmed
What usually happens
Faster than people expect.
Most people I see with stiffness are in their 50s and 60s.
1
Cut what fuels inflammation
They start the elimination diet, cutting out sugar and inflammatory foods. Stiffness often improves quickly.
2
Start moving again
Once they see food was driving the inflammation, they get more active, and that changes how they move forward in life.
3
Fix why it happened
Those foods inflame you because of the state of your gut: how you digest and how strong your gut wall is. We heal that, so a food you bring back later doesn’t bring the stiffness with it.
