A therapeutic diet, or personalized nutrition, is a meal plan that controls the intake of certain foods or nutrients -compounds in foods. It is most times done temporarily to heal and/or to prevent health conditions.

​

The goal to keep in mind with any therapeutic diet protocol is that it should be followed with health status closely monitored until the symptoms subside, followed by a period of reintroduction for each of the foods that were eliminated, one at a time.

 

In general, therapeutic diets are not meant to be followed permanently, unless certain foods that are eliminated are determined to be an allergen, sensitivity, or source of negative symptoms.
