Welcome to your elimination diet guide!
Erin Dishes Nutrition provides meal plans for certain elimination diets. Below you will find a brief description of each elimination diet offered by Erin Dishes Nutrition.
Elimination diets are eating plans that eliminate certain foods which are believed to cause adverse reactions. After a period of time, these foods are reintroduced slowly to determine which foods may be causing symptoms.
Autoimmune Protocol (AIP)
The autoimmune protocol (AIP) is an elimination diet for individuals with autoimmune conditions. This diet can help identify food sensitivities, balance gut flora, and reverse any nutritional deficiencies. The goal is to reduce inflammation and other symptoms. This diet emphasizes nutrient-rich foods and avoids added sugars or other additives. Other foods avoided include legumes, grains, eggs, dairy, nuts, seeds, and nightshade vegetables. Removing these foods may help calm the immune system and promote gut healing.
What you can eat:
Who this diet may benefit: Individuals with Hashimoto’s Disease, Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriasis, Multiple Sclerosis, Crohn’s Disease, Ulcerative Colitis, Sjogren’s Syndrome
Gluten-free
A gluten-free diet is an elimination diet that removes gluten from the diet. Gluten, the protein found in wheat, barley, and rye, occurs naturally in certain foods. And it can also be added to food and food products for flavor and texture. Individuals with celiac disease or non-celiac gluten/wheat sensitivity must adhere to a lifelong gluten-free diet. This allows the small intestine to heal which causes symptoms to resolve.
What you can eat*:
*May not be marinated in gluten-containing ingredients.
Who this diet may benefit: Individuals with Celiac Disease, Non-celiac gluten/wheat sensitivity, or wheat allergy
Lifestyle Eating And Performance (LEAP)
LEAP (Lifestyle, Eating, and Performance) is an effective protocol using the results of the Mediator Release Test (MRT). MRT is a simple blood test that quantifies the degree of inflammatory response in the body. This means it is able to identify the lowest and highest degree of reactions. LEAP builds a diet in a phased approach over time allowing the reduction of inflammation and improvement of symptoms.
What you can eat:
Who this diet may benefit: Individuals who have taken Mediator Release Test (MRT) and have received their results. This meal plan will be based on your results.
Low FODMAP
FODMAP stands for Fermentable Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides, And Polyols. A low FODMAP diet can help manage the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and small intestinal bacteria overgrowth (SIBO). The diet restricts certain carbohydrates that are high in FODMAPs. These foods are poorly absorbed and not completely digested in the gut. This can lead to abdominal pain, gas, bloating, constipation, and diarrhea.
What you can eat:
Who this diet may benefit: Individuals with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Small Intestinal Bacteria Overgrowth (SIBO), Crohn’s Disease, Ulcerative Colitis
