I'm trying to understand how to go about developing a diet that's right for me. I see a lot of people saying it's important to personalize, and to take it slow, which I understand.
The reason I'm doing this is because I've got people in my life who care about me very much who are saying things to me like, "It's the artificial sweeteners!!!" or "It's the gluten! Gluten is making you sick! Just cut it out and you'll be fine."
I'm allergic to ginger, but otherwise, nothing else makes me sick - wheat, milk, meat, nothing. I don't see weird effects of eating certain things. Some people say if they eat X or Y, they feel "bad." I don't understand it. It's just not my experience.
I was reading about Swank, and I'm willing to try a diet change (though I am very closely following this one already!!!) to see if it will make a long term impact.
I just don't understand how people are tailoring diets to fit their needs...if something made you sick or caused GI issues, sure I see that, but what if it doesn't? How do you move forward with no physical feedback?
