I have attempted 2 Whole 30 Challenges in the past. The first one I caved on day 11, and the second one I completed. You can google it for the full details, but it is basically 30 days of strict ancestral eating of whole foods with as few ingredients as possible and as close to the source as possible. Yes: meat, fish, fowl, shellfish, eggs, good oils, nuts, vegetables, some fruit. No: sugar and sweeteners, grains, alcohol (!), dairy, industrial oils, medication, artificial ingredients, legumes, soy, fruit juice...
Goals (in no particular order)
Weight loss
Improved mood
Improved digestion
Reduced inflammation
Reduced allergies
Reduced asthma
Improved sleep
New permanent habits
Whatever else comes along....
