"Elimination": Diets...which avoid the possible offending foods with "control periods" inbetween diet changes. See an allergist for a "program"!
Hope this helps!

None.: It is al comprehensive.
Combination of once symptoms and physical exam and detailed dietary history which includes Food Journal .
And then necessary blood tests and some times Endoscopy for the gastric Biopsy:-)
