Additional information regarding foods and eating while living with a mast cell disorder:-

The following notes are intended for those who do not have TRUE food allergies. If you have been positively
tested as truly allergic to any food or drink below, this will not apply to you. Same warning applies for above
listed items within the diet.

Despite this diet, for our disorders, typically we find that avoiding entirely or at least limiting our intake of wheat,
sugar/sweets, dairy, spices, processed foods, and preservatives, resolves many of our difficulties with food. Home
cooking and/or raw natural foods seem to be safest for us. Most patients have adjusted their food and drink intake to
mirror the diets for Celiac disease and/or Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Many of those same foods and sensitivities
apply for mast cell disorders. Additionally, many of us are sensitive to Salicylates as well. Dr. Joneja has a full
Salicylate Diet in her book.
