no alcohol

I don't believe that diet has much to do with improving things for sufferers - no matter what I eat once my digestive system starts to do its job and an attack comes on the first thing you want to do is to be sick and/or evacuate the lower bowel.
I lose weight when going through a phase as I fear eating. I generally partake of things that I can suck and let my mouth take over a lot of the work of the digestive system.
Beer is a foodstuff with ingredients such as malt, barley, hops sugar etc - however this is a no fly zone as alcohol is a definite trigger for cluster headaches.

I'm not aware of any diet to help avoid clusters but I do NOT touch alcohol during cycles as it is a big trigger for me.

No smoking. No alcohol. Other than that diet does not affect.

No through time you can find triggers and avoid them but what triggers one day may not the next

No. Just absolutely cut off any kind of alcohol, chocolate, GMS, processed/industrial food or drinks. Mineral (not tap) water, rice, natural vegetables and a few more things, thats it.

Avoid alcohol during a cycle.

I have not been dealing with this for very long. I only know what has been suggested by others. I am most interested in foods that support a healthy hypothalamus, B vitamins and possibly others. I have yet to find definitive evidence from personal experience or the literature.

There is no diet that stops attacks but there are foods and drinks that trigger attacks. Alcohol, chocolate, soy products for me...these are the foods that trigger attacks. I have never smoked but I've heard that smoking can cause cluster headaches.

During an active cycle, most patients must refrain from consuming alcohol, as it is a common trigger.

Obviously
One of the treatments for the disease is diet, but not everyone has what is right for the other
You have to learn what causes the attack and what intensifies it is all trial and error
Usually what causes or exacerbates the attack
It's yellow cheese or any fat cheese
Alcohol !!!! Especially red wine !!!!!
Citrus fruits and spicy food
It is preferable to eat lots of vegetables and fish

Nothing that would give you extra energy such as: coffee, fat, energetic or alcoholic drinks ( alcohol is a trigger, it would start the pain immediately)

No chocolate, coffee and cigarettes

I follow the Auto Immune Protocol due to my Hashimoto Thyroiditis and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. I have not noticed a difference, but I do avoid chewy and crunchy foods like chips and gum, taffy, jerky, breads, etc as I believe food texture impacts my clusters more.

I never drink cold drinks. Always let everything warm up to room temperature. Once I accidentally get a brain freeze, I feel like that nerve stays irritated and triggers clusters easier.

I have heard of people who have met with some success trying different diets, but generally diet does not affect cluster headaches. You might have some triggers, that cause the Cluster to flare when you are already having an episode, but ultimately changing diet does not eliminate them. These can include alcohol, MSG, salt and others.

I haven't identified any associated food allergies or triggers.
