Safety Profile
Small uncontrolled pilot studies in inflammatory bowel disease and Hashimoto's thyroiditis reported better symptoms and quality of life. Larger controlled trials are needed. It is meant to be temporary: most people reintroduce many foods. Work with a dietitian if you stay in the elimination phase long, to avoid nutrient gaps.
