i have found that soy--any type, oil, lecithin, etc.--is a trigger for my oral lichen planus. Soy is in almost everything in the US so I have to read a lot of labels and ask a lot of questions but it is worth it.

    My doctor told me to avoid toothpaste so I brush with a mixture of baking soda and coconut oil. Have been doing it for a couple of years and it works well.

    That may be a factor in my case. I'll be more vigilant. Thank you.
