Maintaining a balanced diet whilst avoiding certain foods
If as a result of taking a Food Detective test your results have indicated a raised level of antibodies to a certain food, then you should avoid that food for at least three months and await an improvement in your symptoms.
Removing the offending foods will allow you to reassess your lifestyle and food choices. You may wish to work with a nutritional therapist or dietician in order to evaluate your diet and identify any food groups which maybe missing or limited. It is important to eat a wide variety of foods.
Here are some of the most common reactive foods:
- Cow’s milk
- Wheat
- Egg
- Yeast
- Soya
