All processed, packaged, or fast foods<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\nElimination diets last for about three to six weeks because it is believed that the antibodies, which your immune system makes upon disagreeing with certain foods, take about three weeks to go away. This allows the person time to heal from sensitivities and notice any improvements without certain foods in his\/her diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When the body doesn\u2019t agree with something, it constantly sends out inflammatory responses, which can cause harm to the entire body, especially if they are continually being sent. Before you start eliminating foods, take stock on certain things you experience, such as digestive issues, allergies, energy levels, skin issues, or brain fog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What Do You Eat?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Your diet should be comprised of fresh vegetables, fruits, legumes (like beans and lentils), seaweeds, and gluten-free items like quinoa. You are essentially consuming a vegetarian diet, but make sure that you avoid processed, packaged, or fast food, even if it is vegetarian. Keep this diet for at least one month before reintroducing old foods back into your diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How To Reintroduce Food The Right Way<\/h2>\n\n\n\n After about a month, pick one food item, which you eliminated, and eat it. Only introduce one eliminated item at a time. You can\u2019t introduce multiple items at once because you won\u2019t know which food gives you a reaction, provided you get a reaction. See how you feel for the next 48 hours. If you don\u2019t experience a reaction, it\u2019s up to you which food you decide to introduce next. Follow the same steps and hopefully nothing happens. If you do notice a reaction, perhaps it is time to stop consuming that specific food or beverage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Remember that not every blood test can tell you what you are allergic to. By doing\u00a0an elimination diet, you may discover how to have a healthier body.<\/p>\n
