I went through a food inventory a while back after having all kinds of problems which I won't list in entirety here but waking up with night sweats and painful cramps were a couple along with getting up to pee 3 or 4 times a night and a few others that were downright scary.

I cut out pretty much all processed foods for a while then stopped eating wheat, seafood, dairy and beef entirely. Talk about a limited diet. Long story short, everything is back except dairy in any form. No butter, cheese, whey, milk, yada yada ... not a single thing that lists any milk based ingredient or may have been made where dairy might contaminate it. It's not a lactose intolerance it's more like a genuine dairy allergy.

Cramps are gone, sweats are gone, don't get up to pee at all. Still don't sleep much but that's always been a problem so maybe I'll try the magnesium glycinate.

Point being, different people have different triggers.
Thanks... night sweats and peeing = very little rest. your info helps. Thanks again!
 
Absolutely. You have to experiment and add in one thing at a time, gauge your reaction and keep a log.

Edited to add
For anyone who has bad inflammation, poor energy, poor sleep, pain…

Start with a carnivore cleanse. No dairy no grain no veggies no fruit no seeds.

Concentrate on beef and other multi-stomach animal proteins. Pigs or chickens do not break down polyunsaturated fats in corn and other stuff they are fed but ruminants do. Water or tea (coffee is controversial so at first avoid it) and good Baja or Celtic salt.

After 30 days you will feel better, probably really good. Now add in some fruit. You will feel incredible with some natural sugars and antioxidants. You could stop there, with some supplements and be great….but if you have to then add some controversial stuff with enough time and keep a log. It’ll take months to figure it out for yourself.
I appoligize for being late to the conversation, but these are all good points.
But I want to add, ...I know a woman who is gluten intolerant. I really thought this was a ploy to make her feel special. However I ran into her a couple mounts later, and (you know where the conversation went), she told me she now orders European flour through Amazon and now enjoys (homebaked) cookies, biscuits, and such. After a little research, I'm pretty sure the problem is the chemicals that are sprayed on the wheat that is grown here. Carry that over to all the foods we buy at Safeway...Albertsons... etc.
I'm not trying to sound like a prepper, but wild game has been a main stay in my (and my kids) diet for a long time.

'just sayin...

Glyphosate is suspected as a real problem but any bread or product that is made with “enriched” flour or which has added folic acid should be avoided like the plague. Most breads have a list of ingredients that rivals Dr Pepper.

Aldi sells a sourdough that has like 3 ingredients and I tolerate it fine but regular bread makes my joints into swollen pain centers.

Wheat was modified/crossed with grasses a few decades ago to increase yields and then (surprise!) people started having gluten troubles. Heirloom wheat flour is available.

Glyphosate and other chemicals ruin the gut biome and pretty much the entire body is dependent on a healthy gut.

As a guy who owns a large regional wholesale bakery, pump the brakes on some of your claims. Wheat is one of the last remaining crops to remain non GMO.
