Processed and inflammatory foods drain your energy and wreck your sleep. An elimination diet can show you which foods are the culprit, helping you feel better and sleep deeper.
One of the other big causes we see is just what people are eating. Like if you're eating a nutrient-depleted, ultra-processed diet with tons of sugar and inflammatory foods, it tends to cause you fatigue.
We see that all the time. You know, people eating the wrong foods at the wrong time, eating a lot of refined processed foods, causing their blood sugar to spike, and then it drops, not eating enough protein. I mean, there's so much with diet that has a huge impact. And like you mentioned, the inflammatory foods, so foods that may be causing inflammation for that person, gluten and dairy and.
So... Those are the big ones.
Those are the big ones. And so a lot of times we'll do, one of the biggest tools we have in our toolkit is that comprehensive elimination diet. And it can be really helpful for patients. They work with our nutritionists and get on a really good try an elimination diet. And many times patients will say, I started to feel so much better, right? And my energy improved.
So true. And we actually are going to be running an online group Zoom elimination diet that's five weeks guiding you through that whole process. So people can try it and experiencing it. And I found this classically using elimination diets for decades in functional medicine is probably the most powerful tool we use to to sort of reset people. And nine times out of ten, it works. And if it doesn't, it means there's something else. Maybe they're low in fiber, maybe they're heavy metals, maybe they have Lyme disease, maybe there's something else going on. But maybe eight out of ten to nine out of ten people will see a dramatic change in their health in a very short time.
