How do I reintroduce foods after my elimination diet?

Adding Foods Back Into Your Diet

After completing your 30 Day Elimination Plan, you can begin your "Reintroduction Phase", and re-introduce foods back into your diet.

How it works: If you wish, slowly start adding "Moderately Inflammatory Foods & Drinks" and "Inflammatory Foods & Drinks" back into your diet one buy one. Eat it, and wait a few days to see if you have any noticeable symptoms. If you notice unwanted symptoms after reintroducing an item back into your diet, you should refrain from consuming that food for at least an additional 2 weeks before attempting to reintroduce it again.

If you notice that a food or drink continues to present you with unwanted symptoms after you have eliminated for at least 30 days, it is best that you allow your body additional time to heal prior to attempting to reintroduce it to your diet again.

Since intolerances are temporary, your body may have been able to heal and rebalance from the offending item during the elimination period. Remember to always eat in moderation and rotation.
