Spring, TX

I've only been diagnosed for 2 months and I have no idea what I'm doing I know that being gluten free and egg-free I see a difference but not much and then my doctor wants me to go low carb but my rheumatologist wants me to do an anti-inflammatory diet help me please ❤️ also happy New Year

I went mostly whole food plant based and completely vegan (making I don’t eat any animal products but I do occasionally eat ultra processed foods). My labs were completely normal and my symptoms are 98% gone. They still pop up occasionally but I tend to be feeling better and better. I’ma dietitian and I would say there is more evidence supporting an anti inflammatory diet than low carb for sure. Most doctors don’t know anything about nutrition.
