Quick answer: The 30-Day challenge comes with two resources: a quick reference cheat sheet listing approved foods, and a PDF recipe guide with simple anti-inflammatory meals. Use them together to plan your week, build a shopping list and keep meals interesting.

When to see a naturopathic doctor
It may be time to see a naturopathic doctor if you have a chronic inflammatory, autoimmune or digestive condition, or if you have diabetes, kidney disease or take medications affected by diet changes. The same is true if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a history of disordered eating, or if you want a plan tailored to your labs, symptoms and goals.
See a medical provider promptly for severe abdominal pain, signs of an allergic reaction such as swelling or trouble breathing, or fainting.
