The Diet Designed Just for You
Could the toast you ate for breakfast bring on your afternoon headache? Could the milk in your coffee cause joint pain and brain fog? Could your healthy tofu stir-fry slow your metabolism?
Yes-there is an age-old, powerful connection between what you eat and how you feel. Just as no two bodies are the same, no two diets work for everyone. The only way to discover your ideal diet is to follow an elimination diet that will help you link foods to symptoms and customize a diet that works for you.
Known for their ability to radically improve overall health, elimination diets are growing in popularity. But there’s no definitive book that explains how to follow one safely and effectively-until now. Written by two authors who are revered in the alternative health market and functional medicine community, The Elimination Diet guides you through a proven three-phase program that detoxifies the body and promotes fast healing:
  • Phase 1: Detoxification–A 2-day liquid fast that includes broths, smoothies, and juices to calm the immune system and removes toxins from the body.
  • Phase 2: Elimination–For 2 weeks, you will eliminate potentially inflammatory foods from your diet, which will ease symptoms quickly.
  • Phase 3: Customization–For 2 months, you will test different foods to see what works for you and what doesn’t, resulting in a tailored diet you can enjoy for life.
Complete with over 100 delicious recipes, shopping lists, and meal plans, The Elimination Diet is a complete resource for you to improve your health and feel better, naturally.

  • "I'm a strong proponent of elimination diets, and The Elimination Diet makes it easier than ever to customize your diet for improved health and wellness."
    Mark Hyman, MD, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Blood Sugar Solution
  • "I've seen time and time again how eating the wrong foods can cause weight gain and fatigue. The Elimination Diet makes it easy to pinpoint what foods work best for you-this book is a life changer!"
    JJ Virgin, CNS, CHFS, New York Times bestselling author of The Virgin Diet and JJ Virgin's Sugar Impact Diet
  • "The most well-explained and evidence-based elimination diet that I have seen. I would highly recommend the program outlined in The Elimination Diet for anyone struggling with unexplained symptoms of anxiety, chronic pain, or poor digestion."
    Alan Christianson, NMD, author of The Adrenal Reset Diet and founder, Integrative Health
  • "A welcome relief for readers who have suffered for years with chronic health problems and are desperate for a solution."
    from the foreword by Jeffrey Bland, PhD, FACN, founder, Institute of Functional Medicine
