Welcome to the Elimination Diet Support Blog

An elimination diet can be very tough. It's nice to have support. I know; I really couldn't have survived this diet without the support I received from fellow or former eliminators. So I created this blog to help you with your own elimination diet. You can also comment on this blog if you have tips or tricks to share. So come on in and join the conversation...

I want to say right up front I am not a doctor nor could I have done this with out a doctor's help. I sincerely recommend you identify a medical/nutritional professional who is familiar with the elimination diet to guide you through this process. The health information contained in this blog is not intended as medical advice and should not be considered a substitute for appropriate medical care. Seattle locals please seek assistance at Bastyr Center for Natural Health.

Why do an elimination diet?

The elimination diet is a great way for you to identify how a particular food contributes to your chronic health condition. Here is a brief list of just some of the symptoms caused by food sensitivities/allergies:
  • Skin irritations or break outs
  • Sinus congestion
  • Gas, bloating and/or abdominal pain
  • Diarrhea or constipation
  • Headache
  • Fatigue, depression, anxiety, lack of concentration, hyperactivity
  • Muscle or joint pain
  • Candida
