Gut First, Food Freedom Always: How to Ditch the Confusion and Eat What Actually Works for YOU

Feeling free is the best feeling: with food, life, or anything really!

We’ve been fed (pun intended) so much B.S. about food over the years.

🥓 Bacon will kill you.

🥑 Fat is the enemy.

🍌 Fruit is secretly making you fat.

And let’s not forget the fat-free ‘90s diet craze that made us all think SnackWells were a better choice than an avocado. Spoiler alert: they weren’t.

Why Are We Still Confused?

Because the diet industry thrives on confusion. They slap a new label on an old idea, and suddenly, you’re drowning in another “miracle” food trend that leaves you more bloated, exhausted, and frustrated than ever.

And that’s where WildFREE Health does things differently. We don’t do diets. We don’t do fear-mongering. We don’t do “one-size-fits-all” advice.

Instead, we start where it actually matters—your gut.

Your Gut Decides What Works for YOU

Every single person has a unique gut microbiome, which means the perfect way of eating for one person could be a digestive disaster for another. That’s why we focus on how food makes you feel instead of just what a diet book says.

Here’s how to tell if your food choices are actually working for your body:

✅ Energy Check: Do you feel fueled or fatigued?

✅ Gut Check: Are you comfortable or constantly bloated?

✅ Mood Check: Do you feel clear-headed or foggy?

✅ Satisfaction Check: Are you truly full, or do you crave more?

The Gut-Friendly Approach to Bacon (And Everything Else)

Let’s talk bacon because we know it’s on your mind. Bacon itself isn’t the problem—it’s how your gut handles it.

👉 Nitrate-packed, low-quality bacon from factory-farmed sources? Your gut might throw a tantrum.

👉 Nitrate-free, pasture-raised bacon in balance with whole foods? Your gut might throw a party.

It’s not about banning foods—it’s about understanding what fuels and supports you instead of wrecking your digestion.

Stop Overcomplicating Food. Start Listening to Your Body.

Kerri and I have seen it over and over—women stressing out about whether to eat carbs, fat, or whatever the latest villainized food is.

Here’s the truth: Your body needs all of it—carbs, fats, proteins. The problem is ultra-processed junk, not real food.

🚫 Oreos are the problem, not fruit.

🚫 Canola oil is the problem, not real, high-quality fats.

🚫 Fake "health" foods are the problem, not whole, nutrient-dense meals.

When you start eating for your gut, food freedom becomes simple.
