I had to change my entire diet two years ago - it was successful - due to a reaction to entire family of plant proteins. I didn’t develop a normal allergy at a certain point of life, but an entire metabolic syndrome which I dragged from birth. So it was either stop eating all of that immediately, or a graveyard. It took me three months to adapt and almost eight months to shake off all disturbances I had.

If you changed your diet how much time you needed to get in tune with it?

    I’ve been lucky so far to not have developed any allergies or reactions that needed me to change what I eat.

    I try to eat smaller portions of good quality food, rather than large portions of junk, and I almost always make dinner myself as opposed to getting food delivered. Beyond that I don’t really worry about it too much, but I realize this is a privilege.

      Thank you for understanding. Yes, it’s obnoxious. Cooked food at home is better even if you are not a MasterChef, especially because you get to choose all the ingredients yourself.

        Yeah I agree, anything you make for yourself out of decent ingredients is going to be better for you. Plus there’s a good sense of satisfaction too.
