Once I start my Elimination Diet Plan, how soon should I see improvements?

Elimination Diet & Improvement

While everyone's body is different, if the elimination plan is followed correctly, you should start experiencing improvements within 2-3 weeks from the start of your Elimination Diet Plan. 

Moderation and rotation in your diet are key to helping your body heal from the exposure to the items which you have been identified as having a sensitivity to. 

Once you have refrained from consuming your inflammatory food and drink items for at least 30 days, you can slowly start to reintroduce these items to your diet if you wish. 

However, if you notice your symptoms return after reintroducing a food or drink to your diet, you should eliminate the item from your diet for an additional 2 weeks before attempting to reintroduce the food again.  Depending on the intolerance or sensitivity your body has built against an item, it could take longer than 30 days for your body to heal and once again become tolerant to an item being consumed. 

In some cases, your body may develop a chronic intolerance or sensitivity to an item and your consumption will need to based on your own preferences while attempting to refrain from overconsumption and rotating the item(s) in and out of your diet to help to lessen the severity of the symptoms.
