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.

Detoxing

I forgot about the importance of detoxing. You need to let the toxins out of your body when you are eliminating. This can be done a number of ways:

  • Exercise - the sweatier the better

  • Hot baths with Epsom salts

  • Jacuzzis and saunas

  • There are some supplements you can take - ask your doc
