Finding the Right Diet for Your Lifestyle
By Luci Fardo
I want to talk to you about finding the right diet for your lifestyle and health. I have to admit that I tried #AIP protocol diet. I failed. I made it one week and said no. It was far too restrictive for me. If my #lupus or #MCTD was active I may have lasted longer. It wasn't for me. I understand that it works for a lot of people. It really affected my exercise routine. I didn't have any energy. I decided to go back to some grains. I am personally not eating specific things like processed food and some other things. I figured I would share some of what I am doing. I basically am eating 90/10. This means that 90% of the time I follow a diet and ten percent I eat treats of things less healthy for me. I am going to list below things that cause my #lupus and #rheumatoid to flare up. It doesn't hurt to try, right?
Corn
Gluten
Milk
Processed foods
too much coffee
Alcohol
Peanut butter
Legumes
My diet that has worked for me is a well-balanced diet of fresh and cooked vegetables, meat, some grains such as oatmeal, sourdough bread, oat bread, potato bread, I also eat a ton of fruit. Drink a lot of filtered water as well. I eat as small of an amount of processed food as possible. I do eat tuna fish in the pouches. I do eat some cereal occasionally. I hope that my diet will help someone else.
