A question to those of you who are on a gluten free or paleo diet to help HS. What food or food group causes you the worst flare up? I have been on a GF, Dairy and nut free diet for years and the other night in desperation for a snack I at 1/4 cup of peanut butter on a piece of flat bread and man o man I have not had a flare up like that in years. I lost a day of work because I could not walk.
Here are my triggers in order of worst to least worst.
1} Peanut butter
2} Cheese
2} Gluten

Hi. The things that trigger my flares ups are: white flour, sugar, spicy foods, fruits(because of the high sugar), tuna, dairy, shrimp, i think thats about it. The first three cause the WORST flare so I have removed them completely from my diet. Hope this helps :-)

Nothing triggers my HS. I am allergic to practically everything so have a very bland diet.

IamDavid
Vegata what do you mean by that crack? "Honestly?" Who do you think you are talking to me like that?
IamDavid
You have no right to be bashing anyone here. I don't ever do that to anyone at a support group. I read about what helps people with there HS, like tumeric is a biggie for alot of people. I tried it several times and I did not get the same results as they did and that is ok. I Did not make it a point to post negative remarks topics just because It did not work for me. This is a support group right? The topic and question of this post is "For those of you who are on a Gluten Free or Paleo diet" so as not to draw negative comments. But here they are anyway. You freaking amaze me you really do.

Check your blood type!!! your blood type has foods that you should be eating and foods that you shouldn't... I know that part of this condition is caused by stress, emotion and sweat! (apocrine gland that the bacteria gets into) So I think the foods you can eat can stress you!! Therefore get an inflammation!! Check blood type diets!

I too can not eat peanuts!! But that is just my blood type diet!

Not a cure but more of a prevention!! And that's the condition!
