NO SUGAR, NO DAIRY, NO GLUTEN
These articles explain why avoiding sugar, gluten and dairy are important. (avoiding things like nightshades/lectins are common as well)
"First of all, avoid refined sugars at all cost. Sugar is very immune suppressive and it also can feed candida. The second thing is to avoid gluten, because gluten is very inflammatory. Then the third is to reduce or eliminate dairy because dairy is inflammatory."
"Research indicates that nutrition has a profound impact on inflammatory balance within the body; therefore, since Lyme is an inflammatory disease, it is amenable to dietary changes."
"Lyme disease bacteria (spirochetes) and parasites feed on sugar - allowing them to thrive and multiply."
"One of the most important parts of a Lyme Diet is minimizing consumption of sugar and carbohydrates. Not only does sugar fuel the growth of yeast, but it also supports growth of the spirochete bacteria that cause Lyme disease, Borrelia burgdorferi. "
"Though gluten does not necessarily cause such disorders, its elimination from the diet may help to lower inflammation levels, thus granting the patient some relief."
"There is no perfect food, and all foods carry at least some potential for harm to the digestive system. That being said, some foods carry a higher potential for harm than others."
"Conventional wisdom holds that nightshades cause inflammation, and particularly joint pain."
