Izzi Phillips reached out to us to let us know how our low FODMAP meals had changed her life and we’d love to share her story with you.
“It all started while I was away at the World Youth Cup. I’d begun having ongoing stomach issues and knew something wasn’t right. After lots of appointments and tests, I was advised to follow a low-FODMAP diet.
😓If I’m honest, I found it incredibly overwhelming. Almost overnight, food became another full-time job. I was constantly checking ingredients, worrying about what I’d eat when I travelled and wondering whether something I’d eaten was going to leave me unable to train. I was juggling being a professional athlete, studying and having a social life, and suddenly all my headspace was taken up by food.
Thankfully, my mum stepped in. She spent time researching and eventually came across Field Doctor and their low-FODMAP range. For me, that was the first time I felt like I’d truly found something to fit my lifestyle.
💚Field Doctor meals have given me my life back! Before, so much of my mental energy went on worrying about food. Would this upset my stomach? Have I packed something safe? Will I be okay for training later? With Field Doctor, food has gone from something I worry about to something that supports me. Physically, I’ve noticed such a difference too. I’ve kept progressing in the gym and hit strength PBs I never imagined, because I’m finally fuelling consistently instead of just trying to get through the day.
But the biggest change isn’t even physical, it’s getting my freedom back. I can spend more time with friends, focus on my degree, enjoy travelling with the team and just be a normal 20-year-old without feeling like everything revolves around food. As an athlete there are already so many things to think about, so having confidence that my nutrition is sorted means I can put my energy into the things that really matter.
💚My favourite meal has to be the Teriyaki Salmon. It’s definitely not something I have the skills to make at home, so it always feels like a bit of a treat. It honestly tastes like something you’d order in a restaurant, but it’s sitting in my freezer ready whenever I need it!
