Rapid Symptom Relief (Weeks 1–2)
Most patients experience significant reductions in bloating, brain fog, fatigue, and joint pain within 7–14 days of elimination—providing immediate motivation to continue.

Evidence-Based Food Sensitivity Elimination & Reintroduction Protocols
Structured 4–8 week elimination followed by systematic reintroduction. Heal your gut, resolve inflammation, and identify safe foods for long-term tolerance and metabolic optimization.
Book Appointment →What to Expect
- ✓Phase 1 (Weeks 1–4): Complete elimination of high-reactivity foods; nutrient-dense, anti-inflammatory alternatives
- ✓Phase 2 (Weeks 5–8): Systematic single-food reintroduction every 3–5 days; symptom tracking and food journal
- ✓Phase 3 (Weeks 9+): Rotation diet to prevent new sensitivities; maintenance guidelines and periodic reassessment
- ✓Personalized meal plans & shopping lists for each phase
- ✓Nutritionist coaching calls & email support throughout protocol
- ✓Integration with hormone therapy, GLP-1, and peptide protocols for synergistic healing

Benefits & Outcomes
Gut Barrier Healing
Removing inflammatory triggers allows intestinal epithelium to repair, reducing leaky gut, improving nutrient absorption, and restoring healthy immune tolerance.
Identify True Triggers vs. Temporary Intolerance
Systematic reintroduction reveals which foods are permanently reactive and which are temporarily problematic due to inflammation—many foods return to the diet.
Sustainable, Rotational Eating Pattern
Avoids the pitfall of permanent restriction or 'leaky' reintroduction. Rotation eating maintains gut diversity, prevents new sensitivities, and maximizes nutrient variety.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do I eat during the elimination phase?▾
We provide a personalized meal plan featuring non-reactive proteins, vegetables, healthy fats, and safe grains/legumes. Meals are anti-inflammatory, nutrient-dense, and varied to prevent boredom and nutritional gaps.
Can I reintroduce foods faster than every 3–5 days?▾
Not recommended. IgG reactions are delayed (24–72 hours). Introducing too quickly masks symptoms and prevents accurate identification. Patience in Phase 2 pays dividends in long-term food freedom.
What if I have a reaction during reintroduction?▾
Remove that food, return to elimination for 3–5 days until symptoms clear, then proceed with the next test food. Some foods may need a 2–3 month break before safe reintroduction.
Is this safe long-term? Will I develop new deficiencies?▾
Yes, it's safe—especially with nutritionist oversight. We monitor macronutrient balance, micronutrient status, and bone health. Supplementation is recommended if needed (e.g., calcium if dairy is eliminated).
How does this work with GLP-1 or hormone therapy?▾
Food sensitivities reduce GLP-1 efficacy and worsen hormone metabolism. Elimination first improves satiety, reduces nausea, and optimizes absorption—amplifying weight loss and hormone balance.
