This does not include the why's. This is the straightforward version containing what I can and cannot consume.
And all the caveats.
Simply put, I'm intolerant to fruit, soy and the combination of grain and sugar. I'll be eating this way for at least a year, maybe forever. I'm going to get tested again next year and I'll see what happens then. For now, culinary exploration is still underway.
The "No" list:
- Fruit and all products derived (including Vitamin A Palmitate, cashews, citric acid, honey that is sourced from fruit trees, olives, apple cider vinegar, coconut, bell peppers, avocados, nutmeg, fruit flavoring, peppers, pumpkin pie spice because it has nutmeg, etc)
- Soy and all products derived (e.g. soy sauce, soy protein, soy lecithin, tocopherol or vitamin E, semolina flour, canola or vegetable oil)
- Grains (e.g. corn, amaranth, sunflower seeds, quinoa, and the usual)
- Cheese or cow's milk
- Peanuts
- Caffeine
- Coffee
- Alcohol
Moderated foods:
- Animal meat
- Eggs
- Butter
- Raw vegetables
- Cruciferous vegetables (e.g. kale, cabbage, brussels sprout, etc)
- Melons and tomatoes (for some reason, those fruits don't trigger a flareup)
- Cooked vegetables
- Squash
- Sunflower, safflower, and nut oils
- Almond butter
- Beans (not in their whole form)
- Sweeteners - Maple Syrup and Stevia
- Herbal tea
- Rice vinegar
The "I don't know if these items are okay or not..."
- Chocolate or cacao nibs
- Sunflower oil combined with sugar (in a dish because it's grain and sugar)
- Vinegar derived from grain
- Whole beans
- Sausage
- Maltodextrin
