FLORE Food Intolerance Programme

Food intolerance care that goes beyond guesswork.

Flore maps your food-related symptoms alongside gut health, fibre intake, meal patterns, stress, and digestive function to understand what may be driving your symptoms—without unnecessary restriction or blind elimination diets.

What this page can help you decide

Rice, dal, dairy, wheat, spice, fibre, symptoms, and microbiome context. These patterns can guide a clinical conversation, but they do not identify a diagnosis or prove that a microbiome imbalance is the cause.

Should I start with a programme or a medical assessment?

Start with medical assessment when symptoms are new, persistent, severe or accompanied by warning signs. A support programme may be useful after the clinical question and safe next step are clear.

Do I need microbiome testing?

Not routinely. Commercial microbiome testing has limited proven clinical usefulness and cannot diagnose the cause of these symptoms. Consider it only after discussing what question it would answer and whether the result would change care.

When to consider this

Start with the patterns that keep repeating.

Food-related symptoms can have more than one explanation. These signals do not confirm an intolerance on their own; they help identify what may need to be explored before restricting more foods.

01

Bloating, cramps or bowel changes after familiar foods

02

Avoiding more foods because you are unsure what triggers symptoms

03

Uncertainty about dairy, wheat, spices or high-fibre foods

04

Food choices becoming stressful or fear-driven

05

Recurring symptoms alongside energy dips or changes in appetite

06

Not knowing which foods to reintroduce—or how to do so safely

Why Flore

A programme before a product.

Flore does not begin with a bottle or a generic elimination diet. It begins with symptom rhythm, food context, stress, sleep, medical history, and microbiome testing when it can change the decision.

01

Meal context

Food response changes with timing, portions, stress, sleep, and the rest of the plate.

02

Food and gut context

Tolerance can vary with portions, preparation, bowel rhythm and clinical conditions; broad restriction can make eating harder.

03

Different causes, different care

Food allergy, coeliac disease and intolerance require different assessments. A reaction after eating does not identify which one is present.

04

Digestive rhythm

Constipation, loose stools, and bloating can change how foods are tolerated.

How it works

From scattered symptoms to a clear protocol.

01

Map food-response patterns

We review symptoms, diet history, meal timing, suspected foods, and lifestyle context.

02

Test only with a clear question

Microbiome testing does not diagnose food intolerance. It is considered only if the result could change care.

03

Build the nutrition protocol

Your plan avoids unnecessary restrictions and focuses on practical reintroduction.

04

Rebuild confidence

The aim is a calmer food life, not a longer forbidden-food list.
