• Answer:

  I really empathize with you. Here are some common food triggers: • Coffee, including decaffeinated coffee • Sugars and artificial sweeteners, including honey and maple syrup. Use stevia instead. • Fatty, deep fried, and skillet-fried foods • Fat substitutes • Raw fruits and vegetables, with the exception of bananas • Red meat or dark poultry • Skin on poultry • Spicy foods • Dairy products • Milk chocolate • Nuts and nut butters • Oils, fats, margarine, shortening • Alcohol • Carbonated beverages • Fruit juices (even unsweetened varieties) You might want to try making a soup using low-sodium vegetable juice and diced potatoes (no skin). Bring the vegetable juice to a boil in a saucepan and add the potatoes. Simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are completely cooked.
