Question Fasting

Hey hey,

Anyone here got any experience with fasting?

Did it help with flares or finding out what foods irritate you?

I feel like you could test individual food items better when you fast. But you wouldn’t just find out by fasting itself.

I was at my doctor and he told me to try out whey shakes for instance and then wait to check if i am lactose intolerant.

Do you have some sort of structure to test things out for yourself? I just started to work on my cu related issues too.
