Physician's Elemental Diet | Rory Hornstein | Registered Dietitian | Calgary and Surrounding Areas

Physicians’ Elemental Diet is a medical food designed for the dietary management of moderate to severe impaired gastrointestinal (GI) function, including irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). Physicians’ Elemental Diet is designed to maintain nutritional sustenance as the sole source of nutrition for patients under medical supervision.

Physicians’ Elemental Diet contains a balanced blend of macronutrients fortified with essential micronutrients and electrolytes to assure comprehensive support as the sole source of nutritional intake for limited periods. All the ingredients are in their simplest form for easy digestion and the product was designed with a well-tolerated flavor to encourage patient commitment to the diet. This hypoallergenic formula contains no intact proteins, polypeptides, corn, gluten, soy, or dairy.

Tips & Tricks for Success with the Physicians' Elemental Diet™

  • Loose stools/diarrhea, or constipation (or a combination of both)
  • If you’re feeling bored, try blending the diet with more ice for a “piña colada” feel. You can also add more water to change up the flavour concentration.
  • Add Physicians’ Elemental Diet to a fun glass bottle or a mason jar to make it more portable and convenient.
  • The diet may be consumed a few times a day like larger meals, more frequently like smaller snacks, or some combination of the two, depending on what your practitioner recommends. Change it up until you find a method that works best for you.
  • Begin your program in the evening before your first full day to have adequate time to establish a routine. We also recommend starting the program on a weekend if possible.
  • Plan social time around activities like bowling, the movies, an art class, or mini-golf, not food.
  • Give your mind and body time to adapt and heal. If you can take some time off from work or work remotely, it may be helpful as your body adapts to the diet.
  • Do something nice for yourself, like taking a hot bath, going shopping, reading a book, or getting a massage.
  • If you feel stressed or overwhelmed, try incorporating meditation or journaling into your wellness routine to help calm and quiet your mind.
