What is Whole30?
Whole30 is a 30-day elimination diet designed to help reset your eating habits by cutting out certain foods that may cause inflammation, cravings, or digestive issues.
The focus is on eating whole, nutrient-dense foods while avoiding sugar, alcohol, grains, legumes, dairy, and processed additives.
What You Can Eat on Whole30:
- Meat, seafood, and eggs
- Fresh fruits and vegetables
- Nuts and seeds (except peanuts)
- Healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, and coconut oil
What to Avoid:
- Sugar (including natural sweeteners like honey and maple syrup)
- Grains (wheat, rice, oats, corn, etc.)
- Dairy (milk, cheese, yogurt, etc.)
- Legumes (beans, lentils, soy, peanuts)
- Alcohol and processed additives
The goal is to help you identify potential food sensitivities, reduce cravings, and improve digestion.
After 30 days, you gradually reintroduce foods to see how your body reacts. Many people use Whole30 as a reset to build healthier eating habits.
