The duration of such a diet for an adult is approximately 3 weeks, and for a child - not more than 10 days. If after this there are noticeable improvements, then it is necessary to start the gradual introduction into the diet of other products. New food should not be introduced more than once every three days. If no changes have occurred, then this product is safe for health. If, after the introduction of a new dish, an allergic reaction has started again, then it must be completely excluded from the diet.
