Introducing the gold standard for uncovering food sensitivities – the elimination diet! It’s your personal detective that helps you tackle issues like bloating, headaches, or eczema, shedding light on the link between what you eat and how you feel.
So, what does an elimination diet do?
It gives your body a break and a chance to reset, then gradually reintroduces foods to pinpoint any reactions.
This is a 6-8 week process with 2 main phases –
- Elimination (Week 1-3 or more) – say goodbye to all potential triggers, and watch symptoms improve
- Reintroduction (Week 4+) – slowly bring back foods, noting any reactions or changes
Remember – our bodies change, and sensitivities may shift!
Food sensitivity tests offer insights but do not reflect individual reactions accurately. The elimination diet, with professional supervision, directly pinpoints actual sensitivities. (*Refer to post Food Sensitivity Testing for details)
In a nutshell – the test offers suspects, the diet confirms culprits!
