Has anyone tried the Paleo Antinflammatory diet ?
Posted , 11 users are following.
I have Poly and Fibro as well so I just looked on their forum and saw they were discussing diet. Sounds like it would be appropriate for Ploy sufferers - has anyone tried it ?

no flour
no grains
no legumes
no dairy
no sugar
No processed foods
only meat and veggies and fruit in mornings with protein
is it helping? I do not know, but I was will to try anything to get pain down. I'm still in pain until Pred kicks in afternoon, but I'm probably 70% in mornings and 50% better in afternoons.
My weakness at night is red wine. 1/2 cup coffee in morning. Probably need to give those two up!
I used to only eat high grained breads and only for breakfast, and whole wheat pasta, but gave those up with PMR.
I miss yogurt!
Anyone take probiotics in pill form verses yogurt?

I couldn't go without dairy - yoghourts (and probiotics) are necessary for me as a way of combating the thrush which comes with being on steroids and using steroid inhalers (I'm also a cheese freak and can't do without that either).
Still, life with PMR has taught me that anything is worth trying!

i try to eat fresh caught wild salmon once a week, but yes, $$. My other weakness is red meat.
Oh!!! I forgot, she said NO potatoes, no sweet potatoes either, ugh!!! Sometimes I still eat sweet potatoes. Maybe once a month.

I asked about yogurt again and she said, no, it's dairy!
anyone else have have throat Irritation? I thought it might be Curcumin, so I stopped for several days now, but still have it... Thought maybe the calcium... But unsure yet. Ugh... When I was on higher Pred I had chest tightness for 2-3 hours during day!!!! Scary!

These extreme diets are all very well - but they are often hard to stick to as well as being expensive and they often put you at risk of dietary deficiencies. Omitting dairy of all sorts is something of a risk when on pred because of the bone density aspect. If you aren't eating dairy of any sort - make sure you are taking enough calcium in the form of supplements which aren't as good as dietary calcium.
