Then we reintroduce the food to see if the symptoms return.&nbsp; Experience shows that an elimination diet is one of the best tools for identifying food issues, and is very safe, provided a variety of foods are eaten to supply essential nutrients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which Foods are Suspect?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>I advise starting by releasing foods that you have noticed cause you some adverse symptom, or create a phlegmy response in your body. Does a particular food create a headache, or cause trouble with digestion? Do you always break out after eating a certain nut?&nbsp; Tune in to your own body wisdom and pay attention as you prepare for the release of suspect foods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Foods that everyone might suspect for a variety of reasons include dairy, wheat, corn, soy, peanuts, eggs and shellfish. These foods have been shown to be highly irritating in large numbers of humans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make a list of foods you are ready to release and, so you\u2019re not solely focussed on what you\u2019re giving up, make a list of the abundant foods you plan to INCLUDE as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eat only the foods on the \u201cinclude\u201d list for a period of two to four weeks. Then reintroduce one food at a time (at least 4 days apart) to see which foods cause the reaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then you are free to create a healthy eating plan that serves your individual needs based on foods to which you are <strong><em>not sensitive<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a very simple way to see which foods create symptoms you\u2019d rather not have, <em>but it\u2019s not always easy <\/em>to release foods we enjoy, or are in the habit of eating regularly.  If you want to play with releasing foods in community with other women who are also playing with releasing foods, in an elimination diet playground designed to fully support you as you transform your relationship with food, click <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/cyndicombs.com\/coaching\/relief-through-release-playgroup\/\" target=\"_blank\">THIS LINK<\/a> for complete details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mystery Symptoms<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>I frequently hear from clients that their set of symptoms have a name, but the doctor has no idea of the cause, or what to do to relieve those symptoms except prescribe drugs with innumerable effects on health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Elimination diets can often provide evidence of at least part of the problem, because inflammation is one of the first symptoms for which we get relief when we release foods to which we are sensitive or allergic. Inflammation causes many unwanted symptoms, and those it doesn\u2019t cause, it intensifies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I truly hope that if you are experiencing unwanted symptoms, you will experiment with some form of elimination diet to see if you get rapid RELIEF by simply releasing one or two problem foods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It may just be the miracle you\u2019ve been looking for!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Grow on!<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>What foods do you suspect may be causing unwanted symptoms?<br>What processed foods do you crave?<br>Which unwanted symptoms do you experience that might be tied to food?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many unwanted symptoms we experience are rooted in the foods we eat.
