We offer convenient test kits that you can conduct in the comfort and convenience of your home.  The breath tests can determine if you have hydrogen, methane, or hydrogen sulfide dominant bacteria in your small intestine. We now offer the most advanced testing option, Trio-Smart, that can detect the presence of any of the 3 gases. Speak to your dietitian about which test may be best for you. Test results are delivered electronically and can shared with you easily via our electronic health record.

meal planning services

One of the top challenges that my clients express is lack of time to do meal planning, especially if they have special dietary needs such as gluten free, low FODMAP, clean eating, anti-inflammatory or vegetarian/vegan, as examples. Imagine a meal planning service that does all the work for you including developing recipes catered to dietary needs and food preferences, and creating a shopping list. As an added bonus, the dietitian will establish your account and make recommendations for eating style based on special dietary needs and health concerns. LG Nutrition has partnered with Living Plate RX to provide dietitian developed meal plans.
