Twenty different ways of eating (WOE).  
How in the world are we supposed to figure out which WOE works for us if we have to 
test twenty different ones?
I'm not even sure if I covered all of them.  
These are just the ones I'm familiar with at this very moment.  

Reducing your chronic inflammation to the point where your underlying condition becomes less and less apparent - maybe even as far as total absence of symptoms - is a real challenge.  

It's committing to experimenting, journaling, 
peeling back the layers, and digging deep 
into your vessel until you figure 
out what's keeping the 
inflammatory fire burning inside you 
from ever being snuffed out. 

There a few things listed below that might make your 
journey to wellness more 
tolerable.  


Number two: 
"What worked for your vessel three years ago might not work today."  
Meaning, don't be stuck on the idea that there's 
only one path to success.  
If your stress level goes up, or you take antibiotics for an infection, or you have 
an injury, or something changes in your environment, your body chemistry will likely 
change and that might mean your path to success needs to change, too.  
Try to be flexible 
and recognize when something that used to work is no longer effective in reducing your inflammation.  



Maybe you have to 
"mix-and-match" the WOEs
Maybe you take a little bit of the dairy-free approach, mixed with a few of the low-FODMAP foods, and that combination makes you feel BEST. 
Who knows what combination it might be, but don't be afraid to dabble a little in one WOE and a little in another.
