We suggest replacing only one or two meals a day with Evolution All-In-One. For the third meal, aim to get a balance of food groups and eat a meal portion size that will help to satisfy hunger but not make you feel over-full.  A Paleo style diet has worked for many Ruscio Clinic patients looking for a healthy diet that will not overstress the gut.

The Evolution-All-In-One name partly reflects the gut health journey that many of our users are on. Whereas previously you might have needed a more specialized therapeutic product like Elemental Heal, your gut is now functioning much better, and when you want a meal replacement, you can move onto a  more mainstream meal product  like this one. While the ingredients in Evolution-All-In-One were not necessarily consumed by our ancestors, the name of this formula was also inspired in part by an ancestral eating philosophy, which minimizes the consumption of industrialized, processed foods, and refined carbs.

A serving of Evolution All-In-One supplies 4g of fiber, which is a modest amount.  While some fiber is important for a healthy digestive system, too much, especially of certain prebiotic fibers, can create gut symptoms for some sensitive individuals. The level and type of fiber in the Evolution meal replacement formula is fitting for users prone to some level of gut sensitivity.

Both are comprehensive meal replacements, but Elemental Heal is made with pre-digested nutrients and therefore particularly helpful for people with difficult or protracted gut health problems. If you are having an acute clinical flare in symptoms or need a complete gut reset, Elemental Heal is the better choice. It’s also the product of choice if you are doing a modified fast or liquid only diet where a meal replacement is  your sole source of nutrition. Evolution All-In-One has a broader application for people without significant gut sensitivity, though it is still low in ingredients likely to trigger food intolerance reactions.

The eleven different greens and berries supply a large range of antioxidants, beneficial phytochemicals, and trace nutrients needed for good health and a healthy immune system. 

Consult your health-care practitioner before using a meal replacement if you are pregnant or breast-feeding. Meal replacement products are also not recommended for people who have experienced eating disorders.

Glutamine is an amino acid that has some documented benefits for gut health. A meta-analysis (the highest level of scientific evidence) found glutamine reduced leaky gut and markers of intestinal damage [13]. It may also help to soothe inflammation and IBS symptoms [14, 15].

Evolution-All-In-One has only the minimum amount of sweetness consistent with making a palatable product. We use small amounts of coconut sugar, chosen because it has a relatively low glycemic index and so won’t spike blood sugar. The other sweetener used in tiny amounts is Allulose, a rare natural sugar that has 90% fewer calories than standard sugar, and which produces negligible increases in both blood glucose and insulin level.
