I felt great on the ketogenic diet but I got tired of the food. I tried the Paleo and now I follow the low Fodmap diet for IBS. First rule is Sugar=inflammation , I also avoid gluten and white carbs like rice, bread, pasta, crackers etc. The Autoimmune Solution" and "The Paleo Approach" are great books to read to understand digestion process. Good luck.
@A MyFibroTeam Member. I found a protein powder that I like. I'll have to see if it has any of your allergens. I put a scoop of that with coconut milk and unsweetened Starbucks coffee from the supermarket. I've been drinking that for my breakfast for 3 years. Keeps me hydrated and satisfied. For lunch I blend frozen kale, or spinach with frozen blueberry mix (I'm on the low FODMAP diet which doesn't recommend fruit joint on large quantities for IBS). I blend with plain Greek yogurt and drink or freeze and eat like a sorbet at lunch. Dinner is Salade and mea, maybe Okinawan sweet potato. No gluten.
Thanks! I've read the Paleo Approach and I like the concept. I'm allergic to gluten, dairy, eggs, beef, and pork. Most meals I can manage all right, but breakfast is a challenge still. Do you have a breakfast favorite?
Did you have allergy testing? I would be more comfortable having the testing done. RAST Test is the best, it's simple blood draw not all those little injections. Modern medicine at it's best. Go from there.
I just started Whole30 yesterday. I am very interested in this elimination diet to ease my fibro pain.
