Updated 1/2024. Many of us follow a specific way of eating to help reduce our endometriosis pain, fatigue, or flares. This could be an anti-inflammatory diet, the Paleo diet, gluten-free, dairy-free, or any other way individual to us. It often involves cutting out foods that cause us to flare, and it can feel restrictive, limiting, or sad that we no longer eat the foods we love and are accustomed to.

As two people each following what’s typically considered a restrictive diet, we talk about some of the limiting beliefs we had, and mindset shifts we made that have helped us to embrace the diets we’ve chosen. This helps us feel more empowered and motivated instead of deprived and resentful.

**Important** Diet and lifestyle changes may help manage symptoms, but they cannot cure or heal endometriosis. Your endo can still progress even if you change your diet and no longer experience symptoms.
