A dietician would be familiar with the standard elimination diet, which is what @michwest appears to be on. Tomatoes and nightshade family plants are among the first to be eliminated, nothing to do with Gundry. And oats are eliminated along with other starchy foods.

Thanks for reminding me about the elimination diet. It has been decades since I've practiced dietetics, although I have maintained my registration all these years with continuing education. Here is more to share on the elimination diet:

That said, I do think that most of our current health issues in this country stem from an unhealthy gut, i.e., eating an ultra-processed diet, which lacks key nutrients and food that feeds our gut microflora (primarily fiber). 70% of your immunity happens in your gut.
I eat a primarily whole foods, plant-based diet, high in colorful anit-inflammatory foods. I do fudge a bit and eat a few sweets and I also eat small portions of animal protein.
