A Case for n-of-1 Trials

To the Editor Several months ago, I began experiencing dysphagia and solid food impaction. Findings from an esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) with biopsy confirmed eosinophilic esophagitis. My gastroenterologist recommended the 6-food elimination diet to eliminate milk products, wheat, soy, eggs, seafood, or nuts from my diet for 6 to 8 weeks until my symptoms resolved, then add them back 2 at a time until symptoms recurred.
