3.Could It Be How It’s Prepared?
Even if you pinpoint a food, it can be hard to know why it causes you trouble. Is it the food itself? Or the way it’s raised, processed, or seasoned? If it’s hard for you to resist pork, try some that’s raised organically or made without nitrates (a preservative in some bacon and cold cuts), or broil or grill it instead of frying it in grease. With careful testing, you may find that you can get rid of your symptoms and still eat what you love.
4.What Are Some Common Reasons to Use the Diet?
If you think dairy causes your gas, diarrhea, and bloating, an elimination diet can help confirm it. Those symptoms also can be caused by celiac disease. If you have this condition and eat something in wheat and other grains called gluten, your immune system attacks your small intestine. An elimination diet may help figure that out, too.
