The Whole30 is not a diet, a weight-loss plan or quick fix - it's designed to "change your life," the founders say, by eliminating cravings, rebalancing hormones, curing digestive issues, improving medical conditions and boosting energy and immune function. The theory behind it is that all sorts of physical and mental health issues - ranging from acne to depression to allergies - could be due to your diet. But you can't know which foods are to blame for what ails you unless you cut out all traces of sugar, alcohol, grains, dairy and legumes for 30 days. By day 31, you'll be free from your food fog and may not even miss your nightly wine ritual or morning muffin fix. If and when you reintroduce food groups, your body's reaction will tell you which foods you should continue to avoid - or at least limit.
