Yeah, absolutely. So with diet, I like to separate it out. So I have like a phase one diet, which is more of an elimination diet, which is more restrictive, more focused on gut healing. And then there's the phase two diet where you're kind of reintroducing foods, you're expanding the prebiotic foods, you're rebuilding the microbiome.

And I feel like that's something that's missing, you know, because oftentimes I see patients you know, they're on like the autoimmune paleo diet, which is a very common diet, or the whole 30. And they, you know, felt significantly better.

restrictive diet for a certain amount of time, do some gut healing, do some detox, and then start expanding your diet so you can build up the diversity of your bacteria, which is one of the key barometers of the microbiome and keys to longevity. So that's a mistake I often see in diet when I have patients come to me saying, yeah, I've been on this very restrictive diet.
