Diet is the second most important component to feeling better.  You need to see which of these diets works best for you or perhaps you can implement aspects of all three.

I function relatively well on all three diets, and I list them in the order of how well I do with them.

I have no problem with other diets, but if you’re chronically fatigued or get fatigue after meals, then you should stick with these.

If you have any particular sensitivity – such as to salicylates, you must adjust the protocol accordingly.  As long as you’re getting <a class="aalmanual" title="" href="https://www.selfdecode.com/disease/inflammation/?utm_source=seo&utm_medium=selfhacked&utm_campaign=id00002" rel="noopener noreferrer" onclick="javascript:window.open('https://www.selfdecode.com/disease/inflammation/?utm_source=seo&utm_medium=selfhacked&utm_campaign=id00002'); return false;" >inflammation</a>from food, you’re fighting an uphill battle.

<strong >With all of the diets, stay away from <a class="aalmanual" title="" href="https://www.selfdecode.com/chemical/ethanol/?utm_source=seo&utm_medium=selfhacked&utm_campaign=id00002" rel="noopener noreferrer" onclick="javascript:window.open('https://www.selfdecode.com/chemical/ethanol/?utm_source=seo&utm_medium=selfhacked&utm_campaign=id00002'); return false;" >alcohol</a> and <a class="aalmanual" title="" href="https://www.selfdecode.com/chemical/caffeine/?utm_source=seo&utm_medium=selfhacked&utm_campaign=id00002" rel="noopener noreferrer" onclick="javascript:window.open('https://www.selfdecode.com/chemical/caffeine/?utm_source=seo&utm_medium=selfhacked&utm_campaign=id00002'); return false;" >caffeine</a>.  These are the worst things you can consume for your condition, especially alcohol.</strong>

The main components of a healthy diet for people with chronic fatigue is:</p>

<ul >

<li >Paleo/low <a class="aalmanual" title="" href="https://selfhacked.com/blog/elimination-diet-safest-foods-people-sensitive-everything/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" >lectin</a> diet – no grains, legumes, nuts….limited seeds</li>

<li >Lower carb</li>

<li >Salmon/seafood</li>

<li >Chicken broth, bones, marrow – nothing should be left from chicken except chewed up bone fragments</li>

<li >Liver</li>

<li >Leafy greens</li>

<li >Vegetable juices – <a class="aalmanual" title="" href="http://selfhacked.com/blog/panacea-benefits-broccoli-sprouts-sulforaphane/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" >broccoli sprouts</a>, celery, romaine lettuce</li>

</ul>

<h2 >1) Lectin Avoidance Diet</h2>

<p >You should be following something along a <a title="The Lectin Avoidance Diet: The Safest Foods for People Sensitive to Everything" href="http://selfhacked.com/blog/elimination-diet-safest-foods-people-sensitive-everything/" target="blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" >lectin avoidance diet</a> and better yet <a href="http://selfhacked.com/blog/elimination-diet-safest-foods-people-sensitive-everything/#A_30_Day_Reset_Diet_Plan" target="blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" >the 30 days reset option in that diet</a> when you aren’t consuming good quality seafood.

If you’ve got severe <a class="aalmanual" title="" href="https://www.selfdecode.com/disease/anxiety-disorder/?utm_source=seo&utm_medium=selfhacked&utm_campaign=id00002" rel="noopener noreferrer" onclick="javascript:window.open('https://www.selfdecode.com/disease/anxiety-disorder/?utm_source=seo&utm_medium=selfhacked&utm_campaign=id00002'); return false;" >anxiety</a>, <a class="aalmanual" title="" href="https://selfhacked.com/blog/elimination-diet-safest-foods-people-sensitive-everything/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" >lectins</a> and carbs can feed it in a way.   But if you can get your stress under control, then you will very likely do better with a moderate amount of carbs.  I recommend no more than 25g of absorbable carbs per a meal.  Space it out ~5X a day.

A <a class="aalmanual" title="" href="https://selfhacked.com/blog/elimination-diet-safest-foods-people-sensitive-everything/" target="blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" >lectin avoidance diet</a> consists of animal products (except dairy), fruits/raw <a class="aalmanual" title="" href="http://selfhacked.com/blog/honey-12-important-scientific-uses-superfood/" target="blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" >honey</a> and veggies.

I updated the diet to include seafood, so it’s the most balanced option.  I currently follow that diet.</p>

<h2 >2) Seafood Diet</h2>

<p >The diet is pretty simple.  You eat a lot of fish.  I included fish in the <a class="aalmanual" title="" href="https://selfhacked.com/blog/elimination-diet-safest-foods-people-sensitive-everything/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" >lectin avoidance diet</a> as an option, but the difference is that some people do better with even more fish in the beginning.  So this diet doesn’t include protein shakes.

My top 5 choices for seafood are frozen wild-caught salmon, Fresh Wild Sardines, Roe (fish eggs), oysters and anchovies.  The last 4 are expensive, but I include them every so often. Another seafood is good as well.

You defrost frozen salmon in your fridge and you warm it up or cook it lightly.   Industrial freezers should kill off all the parasites, and if it doesn’t, 145 degrees for 5-10 minutes will (I do this for 5 min).  So you needn’t even boil the <a class="aalmanual" title="" href="https://www.selfdecode.com/chemical/water/" rel="noopener noreferrer" onclick="javascript:window.open('https://www.selfdecode.com/chemical/water/'); return false;" >water</a>.  I also use a lot of spices and take <a class="aalmanual" title="" href="https://www.selfdecode.com/chemical/hydrochloric-acid/" rel="noopener noreferrer" onclick="javascript:window.open('https://www.selfdecode.com/chemical/hydrochloric-acid/'); return false;" >HCL</a> to keep my stomach acidic as a backup. Additionally, your immune system fights off parasites as well as the fourth layer of defense (if it’s working), so I’m personally not concerned with parasites.

You want to eat about 12 oz a day.  Water shouldn’t boil.  You eat it with a base of leafy greens, raw garlic, a tablespoon of extra virgin <a class="aalmanual" title="" href="https://selfhacked.com/blog/olive-oil/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" >olive oil</a>, Dulse Powder (as much as tastes good), Sriracha and spices.

The point of the diet is to get good quality <a href="http://selfhacked.com/blog/top-22-science-based-health-benefits-of-fish-oil/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" >DHA</a>, <a class="aalmanual" title="" href="https://www.selfdecode.com/chemical/iodine/?utm_source=seo&utm_medium=selfhacked&utm_campaign=id00002" rel="noopener noreferrer" onclick="javascript:window.open('https://www.selfdecode.com/chemical/iodine/?utm_source=seo&utm_medium=selfhacked&utm_campaign=id00002'); return false;" >Iodine</a>, little Omega-6’s, adequate protein and nutrition.  This is the best way to get DHA.</p>

<li >You should get a good amount of protein in the morning.</li>

<div >Eat about a pound of raw wild salmon a day that has been frozen in industrialized freezers (to kill parasites)…I warm it up, but it’s not cooked.  Make sure to take 5g MCP, 600mg <a class="aalmanual" title="" href="http://selfhacked.com/blog/top-25-science-based-health-benefits-n-acetyl-cysteine-nac/" target="blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" >NAC</a>, Chlorella and <a class="aalmanual" title="" href="http://selfhacked.com/blog/lipoic-acid/" target="blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" >R-Lipoic acid</a> to prevent heavy metals, toxins and to activate detox pathways to take care of toxins.    I eat it with Sriracha, raw garlic, and leafy greens.</div>
