Elimination Diet for Chronic Lifestyle Diseases

For autoimmune diseases like psoriasis, Inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, certain allergies, inflammation in the body due to inefficient immune system, some migraine headaches, gastric issues, indigestion, brain fog – try with “elimination diet”.

For majority of the people , some of the most common food sources that could cause inflammation due to altered immune response in our bodies are dairy foods, wheat/barley/rey (Gluten based foods), eggs, soy, corn, nuts.
Eliminate all of them at once and wait for 10 to 15 days. Normally our body systems reset during this time. Observe if you experience any improvement in your health condition. If yes, then one of the food source you eliminated in your diet is responsible for your health issue.
Next introduce each food group one after the other with a gap of 3 days in between , so that we could recognize which food is causing a negative reaction in our bodies.
Once identified , we can avoid or reduce that food intake which is causing negative reactions in our body.
Replace the nutrients of eliminated food with quality supplements or get them through other food sources.
Try this elimination diet to fix the root cause, instead of using anti-inflammatory drugs or pain killing drugs for short term relief.
Any drug or steroid that fixes the symptom and provides immediate relief in short term may be beneficial for acute illness like infections and trauma. For long term / chronic diseases (which are majorly due to lifestyle) – best solution is to work on our lifestyle factors like nutrition, exercise and sleep to attack the root cause of the issue.
