I have also had a very strict diet for over 3 months. No gluten , very little carbs ( maybe once a week I have a potato , went 4 weeks with no carbs at all) fresh fruits and veggies, juicing twice a day, lots of leafy greens, no suagr, caffeine or alcohol and very little dairy. All organic. Nothing that comes out of a bottle, can. , bag or box ( except beans and occasional can of tuna) . I have found zero difference. I have started to have a cheat meal over the last two weeks where I have bread and carbs, cus I feel like what's the point in being so strict if it's not helping. I will continue eating well overall, but will loosen up a bit. It's exhausting eating this way, it's sooo much work for no benefit.
