Foods That Fight Pain
This here book, "Foods That Fight Pain" by Dr. Barnard goes into great detail about "Problem Foods". There is a whole chapter just on migraine and foods that trigger some migraines. Anyway....You start off by eliminating all of the "trigger foods" by limiting your intake to two pages of foods that are known not to trigger pain. The starches are: all rice products, tapioca flour, arrowroot powder AND poi/taro root; some 50 vegetables (fresh or frozen); and some 25 fruits (fresh, dried frozen or canned in own juice). You can combine any of this any which way that you like, altho there are some 70 pages of recipes There are about 30 pages of references to articles in medical journals on all of the topics in the book. After a test period on only these foods you can start adding other foods which may contain hidden triggers for pain. I am going to try this for one week to see what happens. Out of that huge list of foods there should be no problem sticking with it. It also might uncover my nasal allergies altho they most likely are caused by house dust, etc.
