I myself have tried many things. Nothing has helped. Some people have had success with gluten free diets.

Everyone is different again and some swear by going vegan or gluten free. No harm in trying out things. I personally was vegan before diagnosis so it didn't stop my rp progression. Dairy free helps with less mucous for me as I suffer with trachea issues.

Each one can adjust the diet according to the other conditions that usually co-exist with relapsing.

No. The only dietary change I have to make is when I am on high dose prednisone I get blood sugar problems. I then go on a low glycemic index diet.

From my own experiences, there is NO diet that can cure RP. There is a huge difference I was aware of by eating as healthy as possible. Since I believe a lot of inflammation can be caused by dairy products, I limit my own intake. I also drink vegetable juice & smoothies which I make. This also helps me while keeping my weight down as well.

I have not been able to tell that what I eat makes any difference in flares. I do know that since I have dropped 20 lbs in the last year, I have felt better. I don't think being overweight is good for any disease. So I eat to keep my weight down....never overeating at one meal. I am more of a grazer. I feel better if I eat a light snack every few hours.

Less protein and gluten

There is no specific diet for relapsing polychondritis, however some people have reported that an autoimmune diet has helped some symptoms.

Although every person is different, some follow an anti inflammatory diet, avoid sugar and gluten.

Yes... Stay away from gluten and cow's milk, eat fruits and vegetables, keep the gut healthy with pro-biotic.

I believe that to maintain a healthy diet that preserves the functions of the intestine, it is where it comes from our defenses. A lot of water, without a doubt!

I don't think RP is as rare as we are led to believe. It seems many symptoms are unrelated. You go to an ortho doc for knee/joint pain. You go to an ENT for ears and throat. You go to an ophthalmologist for eyes. You go to a dermatologist for skin. T...
