Hi warriors, quick question. Do you think/ know thar carbohydrates and sugar plays a role in our flare ups?
Thats a good question, everybody body is different so it depends on what you notice is throwing you into a flare. For example, most people say that garlic is bad for people with lupus but studies show that it helps with inflammation as well as fish oils like omega and things like that. Garlic doesnt affect me but it affects a lot of people here. I personally have some type of carbs or sugar every day and i dont have a flare but red meat like steak, burgers, any kind of beef definitely throws me into one where i will have swelling, chest pains, fatigue, all kinds of symptoms. I say start making a journal of what you eat on a daily basis and if you notice a flare after that day then try to eliminate what you entered in your journal, my doctor gave me that method and it helped me to see which foods i can and cant eat. I hope you can figure your flare out soon, best wishes to you
Thank you ladies ❤️ i must admit, sugar is my absolute weakness🙈🤦😬
