Looking for Relief through Dietary Changes

Has anyone found relief by using dietary changes? I have tried many diets and cutting out different things but none of it has worked. My doctor is having me try yet another new diet soon and I’d like to know if it actually helped anyone!

I did Keto and Intermittent Fasting for a year before 2020 came , I lost a grip of weight and did feel better not as inflamed , and a bit better with my CFS a bit and IBS however it definitely wasn't a cure all but it did help

My mom follows Dr Brooke Goldner's plans (vegan, with extra rules) and her inflammation is gone! I followed it for a while too and it really helped me feel better, but I had to stop because restricting my diet like that was making my eating disorder go crazy.

You can order food allergy blood tests online for over 100 foods. Takes a few weeks but if you do one and cut out your sensitivities from your diet it can help SO much

I talked to my doctor about that and she said they aren’t really accurate, and once you heal your gut a lot of the allergies go away. But I’m curious to try one after the healing because maybe I have an actual allegory!

Gluten free is really helping and only drinking A2 milk/going dairy free

When my mom's symptoms got really bad she lost 100 lbs because she developed PTSD from eating and getting sick. She started cooking very bare bones and working things in slowly. But now I basically spend a decent bit of time making so many things from scratch. Preservatives ended up being her biggest issue. That and artificial nutrients that get pumped into process foods. It's been a fun experience making things from scratch but honestly it takes a lot of time. I'm very passionate about cooking and have been for years. It's helped me figure out a proper diet for my husband's stomach ulcer. Herbs and medicinal eating is a really cool subject to look into.

thank you so much! Do you avoid anything other than processed foods? Or is it mostly just cooking for yourself?
