The Benefits of an Elemental Diet

An elemental diet is a liquid diet that contains all the essential amino acids, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals that you will need.

The elemental formula is made of “pre-digested”, or “elemental” nutrients, which eliminates the need for the body to break them down before they can be absorbed.

Elemental diets are designed to be hypoallergenic and easy to digest, making them suitable for people with food allergies or gastrointestinal conditions.

An elemental diet reduces your exposure to dietary irritants and starves bacterial overgrowth.

The anti-inflammatory nature of elemental diets rests the digestive system and allows the intestines to heal, getting to the root-cause of many conditions.

Elemental diets benefit a variety of different health concerns—

and we’ve seen them deliver amazing results,

even when other approaches have failed!

INSIDE THE PROGRAM

Overview of the Elemental Diet

LESSON 1: WHAT IS AN ELEMENTAL DIET AND HOW DOES IT WORK?

This lesson discusses the history and applications of elemental diets. We cover the difference between elemental and semi-elemental formulas, as well as the additional ways that elemental shake formulas can vary.

LESSON 2: THE BENEFITS OF AN ELEMENTAL DIET—AND WHEN IT’S NOT RECOMMENDED

Elemental diets benefit a variety of different conditions. In this inspiring lesson, we present the research and success stories from our clinical practice. While elemental diets are very safe when implemented correctly, we discuss a few conditions that require additional medical supervision.

Planning for the Elemental Diet

LESSON 3: CHOOSING YOUR ELEMENTAL SHAKE FORMULA

There are several elemental shake options available these days. This lesson focuses on the specific things to consider when choosing the formula that is best suited for your needs.

LESSON 4: PERSONALIZING YOUR CALORIE REQUIREMENTS

This lesson provides step-by-step instruction to guide you through calculating your daily caloric needs and customizing the calorie content of your elemental shakes.

LESSON 5: SUPPLEMENTS & MEDICATIONS WHILE ON THE ELEMENTAL DIET

This lesson covers which supplements and medications you will want to pause, which you will continue with and the few you might consider adding in during the course of your elemental diet. Special considerations for SIBO and IBD are addressed.

LESSON 6: PREPARING YOUR BODY TO BEGIN THE ELEMENTAL DIET

In this lesson, we discuss a few dietary changes that you can implement to help prepare your body for your upcoming elemental diet. We believe this is one of the keys to elemental diet success!

What to Expect & Overcoming Challenges

Implementing the Elemental Diet

LESSON 9: PUTTING YOUR PLAN INTO ACTION

This lesson offers you practical advice, tips, and reminders before you begin your elemental diet. You will create your daily shake schedule and understand what you can and cannot consume during the elemental diet.

LESSON 10: HARNESSING HEALING

Our mindset can affect any treatment that we undertake, because it influences the way we think, feel, and even how our body physiologically responds to events. In this lesson, we explain how you can cultivate a healing mindset and environment as you implement the elemental diet.

Transitioning off the Elemental Diet

LESSON 11: THE TRANSITION DIET

This lesson, used alongside your Transition Diet Recipe Guide, walks you through exactly what to eat for your first 5 days of food reintroduction. We also discuss the emotions that food reintroduction can evoke, as well as a few reminders for those retesting for SIBO after their elemental diet.

LESSON 12: MOVING BEYOND THE ELEMENTAL DIET

As you move into the second week after your elemental diet, this lesson helps you continue to expand the foods you are consuming and discover what works best for you. We teach you about the benefits and limitations of some of the popular diets used for digestive conditions and how to use diet to build a healthy microbiome.

After the Elemental Diet

Elemental Diet

Success Stories

At 74 years old I was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease. My doctors gave me steroids, which improved my symptoms, but I tried tapering off them twice and my symptoms would return each time. I tried the elemental diet for two weeks as a way to really give my digestive track time to heal.

I am now in the 6th week of a very slow steroid taper and feeling better than I have in months. Also, I feel like I have a recourse of going back on the elemental diet if I get off track and diarrhea returns. But so far so good. And I feel the elemental diet made this all possible.
–nS
The Elemental Diet Success Plan program prepared me for the elemental diet, and I was able to handle my symptoms as they came, knowing they were expected and normal. Honestly, by the end I was in such a groove that I could have continued the elemental diet for a few more days!

I really appreciated the transition information and loved the transition recipes. In fact, a couple of them have stayed in our dinner rotation!

I have multiple autoimmune diagnoses, and since completing the elemental diet, I have more energy and less painful inflammation. It’s not necessarily an easy journey, but I was really glad that I had this program to guide me through it.
-Clare J​
I’m 57 and had been waking up for the last 7-8 years feeling like I’d been hit by a bus. I just thought that had to do with natural aging. Come to find out, it had to do with my gut.

Once I completed the 14-day Elemental Diet, I was waking up completely pain free!
–CHRIS HANSEN​
I am now free of SIBO for the first time in 15 years. My two week elemental diet was followed up immediately by a SIBO test that was slam-dunk negative! I feel like a different person – someone I knew long ago. Most importantly, I know that if SIBO tries to come back, I’ll know what to do.
-JIM KREMENS​
Overall, I’ve called the program a “miracle” for me!!! What a world of difference.  Not only do I feel better, but my body – overall – just reacts to food the way it’s supposed to!  

I haven’t gained any weight and I haven’t truly been “watching what I eat” or tracking anything, just intuitively eating.  That alone is the biggest blessing, and I can only attribute it to my digestion working again because of the elemental diet.
–Cheryl Dillin
I have multiple health issues that combined to leave me sensitive to most foods and in a near constant state of GI distress.

After day two of the elemental diet, I had ZERO GI symptoms for the rest of the program. I can’t tell you how many years it’s been since that happened. It felt so wonderful!

After the elemental diet it was easy for me to discover and eliminate a few other foods that caused me distress. My GI symptoms are 75% better than they were before the elemental diet.
-Mary Anne​
I had a sense that I needed to do an extended fast in order to reset and heal my gut, but I was apprehensive as I was underweight, malnourished, and terribly ill.

I began a partial elemental diet and then transitioned to a two-week full elemental diet. For the first time in over two years, I found significant—75% improvement—in my GI, energy and brain fog symptoms. I am now off the PPI medication, eating more food than ever with more joy, having energy to live more fully, and participating happily again in my daily routine with more peace. I sleep better and have gained weight.

Why we created this PROGRAM

We are so glad you found your way here! We are Dr. Roy and Debbie Steinbock. We work with people just like you who are struggling to find relief from chronic and complex health conditions.

An elemental diet has become one of our favorite tools in our holistic toolkit. Many of our clients have reported benefits from an elemental diet such as:

  • A greater tolerance to a wider variety of foods
  • A decrease in digestive symptoms such as gas, bloating, diarrhea, or constipation
  • Eradication of SIBO for those who are positive
  • Reduction in pain and inflammation
  • Improved sleep, energy, and mental clarity

Like any dietary change, elemental diets can be challenging. Furthermore, accurate information can be hard to find because not many clinicians, even experienced ones, regularly use elemental diets in their practice.

That’s why we created the Elemental Diet Success Plan!

Unfortunately, many people who attempt an elemental diet on their own get confused, overwhelmed, and frequently don’t succeed. 

In our clinical practice, every single client who completed our one-on-one elemental diet program was able to successfully complete their elemental diet. That’s actually how we came up with the name the “Elemental Diet Success Plan!”

This program brings together the knowledge we’ve gained working with thousands of people for over two decades, with our unique experience guiding clients one-on-one through elemental diets for a variety of different health conditions.

We will give you with ALL the tools you need right here in this program to support you through every step of the elemental diet and optimize your chance of success!

Frequently Asked Questions

An elemental diet is a liquid diet that provides your intestinal tract an opportunity to rest and repair. Elemental shakes consist of the simplest form of protein, carbohydrate and fat. The powdered nutrients are considered “pre-digested” and are delivered in an easily absorbed and hypoallergenic form. 

An elemental diet reduces your exposure to dietary irritants, decreases inflammation and starves bacterial overgrowth, getting to the root-cause of many GI conditions. 

Yes. When used appropriately, an elemental diet is a very safe and effective tool for a variety of health conditions. Please see “Is there anyone who shouldn’t do this program?” below for exceptions. 

On one hand, an elemental diet is incredibly easy in the sense that your “meals” are very simple and require minimal preparation.  

On the other hand, there are challenges that people often encounter while on an elemental diet and there is a certain amount of dedication and perseverance that is required. 

We created the Elemental Diet Success Plan after years of counseling people one-on-one through elemental diets. We believe that if you are prepared for the challenges—if you understand what is coming and what you can expect— you will navigate the difficulties much more smoothly. 

The course contains two lessons dedicated exclusively to understanding the psychological and physical challenges of an elemental diet, as well as a Detox Support Guide, to assist you in overcoming any difficulties you may encounter. 

Elemental diets have used successfully with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (Crohn’s Disease & Ulcerative Colitis), Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO), Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Celiac Disease, Gastroparesis, multiple food intolerances, Eosinophilic Esophagitis, Cystic Fibrosis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Rosacea and other inflammatory, immune and digestive conditions. 

This program is also for you if your provider has suggested that an elemental diet might benefit your condition and you would like a step-by-step plan to guide you along the way!

Elemental diets are incredibly safe when implemented correctly. The main things to consider when nursing is consuming adequate calories and ample hydration, both of which are important to sustain healthy milk production.

Depending on the age of the nursing child, having a milk alternative or enough solid food options available for them is recommended, in the event that your milk supply was to decrease temporarily.

Please discuss any supplements taken alongside the elemental diet with your healthcare provider and/or your child’s pediatrician.

An elemental diet is not recommended for anyone with Diabetes or an existing eating disorder. 

If an elemental diet is recommended while you are pregnant, you should be monitored closely by your medical doctor. 

If an elemental diet is recommended to your child under 18-years of age, they should be monitored closely by their medical doctor. 

We always recommend consulting with your medical provider before implementing an elemental diet, especially if you have any questions or concerns.

While this program is geared towards guiding individuals with specific health concerns through an elemental diet, clinicians may choose to take this course to further their own education or for personal use.

Throughout the program we provide a variety of case examples and explore the wide range of clinical applications of elemental diets.

Please note that clinicians may not distribute the program content to their clients or through their practice or copy or use it as their own. Please see our Terms & Conditions below for more information.

Ideally, the best time to start this program is two weeks before you plan to begin an elemental diet. We always say that those who plan for their elemental diet are planning for their success!

With this said, if you have already started an elemental diet and you have questions or need further clarity, the program is designed so that you can jump directly to the lesson that will provide you with immediate support. 

SIBO is one of the most common conditions that an elemental diet is used for. In one study, a treatment time of 2 weeks was 80% and 3 weeks was 85% effective in eradicating bacterial overgrowth (shown by the normalization of lactulose breath testing). Additionally, 65% of people experienced an improvement in their IBS symptoms.

SIBO has been shown to exist in up to 84% of IBS patients and is therefore theorized to be a significant underlying cause of Irritable Bowel Syndrome. 

We know that an elemental diet is incredibly antibacterial in nature. With yeast, the mechanisms are less clear.

The Elemental Diet Success Plan will address this in detail in Lesson 5, Supplements & Medications, and will provide you with the current perspectives and well as options for antifungals that can be taken alongside an elemental diet, should you choose to.

Many people who choose to use an elemental diet for SIBO have a positive breath test confirming a SIBO diagnosis before they begin. It is up to you and/or your practitioner to decide if you would like to do a repeat breath test after your elemental diet to ensure that SIBO has been eradicated. We generally recommend follow-up testing (for those who initially tested positive) and we cover the details of retesting in the program. 

If a positive result on a SIBO breath test would determine whether or not you would embark on an elemental diet, then prior testing seems reasonable. However, because elemental diets are generally very safe and can help with a large variety of digestive conditions and symptoms, some people choose to not get tested. 

While elemental diets are often used for SIBO and IBS, they are also being used for other health conditions such as Ulcerative Colitis, Crohn’s Disease, Celiac Disease, Gastroparesis, Eosinophilic Esophagitis, Cystic Fibrosis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, multiple food intolerances, Rosacea and other inflammatory, immune and digestive conditions. 

While an elemental diet can be an incredibly effective tool for resting and healing the gut, we generally recommend starting with food-based dietary and lifestyle interventions for supporting gut health first. 

If you have already addressed dietary and lifestyle changes and are still experiencing digestive symptoms, an elemental diet might be beneficial.

No. Elemental diets have not been studied as a weight management treatment and should not be used if your only health goal is weight loss. 

We have observed clinically that people who are overweight (and have a health condition that prompts the use of an elemental diet) tend to lose weight. 

Yes. In the program, we discuss the special considerations (type of elemental shake formula, caloric requirements, etc.) for those who are concerned with weight loss. We have observed clinically that people who would like to gain weight can sometimes put on additional weight because the elemental diet allows their intestines to heal and absorb nutrients. 

While we have seen an elemental diet provide dramatic results, sometimes even when other approaches have failed, there are no panaceas (or cure-alls) when it comes to health and it is important that you don’t come into the program expecting that. 

Many of our clients have reported benefits such as:

  • A greater tolerance to a wider variety of foods
  • A decrease in digestive symptoms such as gas, bloating, diarrhea, or constipation
  • Eradication of SIBO for those who are positive
  • Reduction in pain and inflammation
  • Improved sleep, energy, and mental clarity

Everyone is different and will experience different results. We have observed clinically that most people experience at least some positive benefit, if not complete resolution of their symptoms.

Implementing an elemental diet generally involves a 1-2 week preparatory period, 2+ week elemental diet, and a 1-2 week transition diet back onto solid foods. 

The Elemental Diet Success Plan consists of 14 video lessons and 5 guidebooks which will assist you through the entire elemental diet process from start to finish.
