Many people with Lyme follow a gluten free, dairy free and sugar free diet. I follow a sugar free diet because sugar bothers me, it gives me a headache.
I eat dairy and some gluten because it doesn't have an affect.
Long term antibiotics can cause problems such as fungal infections in some people, and consuming a lot of sugar can also cause problems. Maybe that is what they are talking about -- I don't know.
I never said I was an expert -- I'm just a former Lyme patient. Eat what you like, and let us know how it goes. Good luck!
No one told me, but it's on the internet everywhere when they talk about how to help the body fight Lyme and heal.
There are many diets u can follow and the reason is to reduce inflammation in the body and boost the immune system
I am surprised that u as a very super educated Lyme patient and don't know about this kind of stuff ..
I hope u didn't have to do that to get well ??
Who is telling you to follow that diet, and for what reasons?
