The food elimination diet is very scientific - you add items back in one at a time to test if they cause a negative reaction to your particular physiology.
- treeman79 5y agoThat’s what I ended up doing. Ate nothing but sweet potatoes for a month. It was the only food I was sure didn’t cause a problem. Most boring month ever. Felt amazing at the end of it. Was shocking when I introduced things back in.
- tmnvix 5y agoI've just finished a five day water fast and plan to limit my diet, introducing new types of food slowly while observing any undesirable effects. Would you mind sharing some of the foods which you found most surprising or troublesome?
- treeman79 5y agoBasically what is safe on AIP worked for me. Everything else is bad. Chocolate and “diet” drinks turned out to be massive migraine triggers for me. That was a big surprise
- atombender 5y agoElimination diet, sure. I meant evidence that the specific foods listed in AIP are inflammatory. I'm not contesting that it works.
