    Anybody try a dairy-free, gluten-free, sugar free diet?

    I like the idea of trying one thing at a time. I eliminated dairy for about six months while I was nursing (because I thought maybe my daughter had a milk protein intolerance). I did not notice any difference in my health. I am interested in seeing how eliminating grains and sugar may help, but...
