I can tell you the worst foods for me, but we are all different, it probably won't be the same for most people.
Soda is one of the worst things I can drink...it gives me pain in my kidneys and leads to kidney infection if I keep drinking it, been to the doctor way too many times due to soda, I won't even touch it now.
Cinnamon and shrimp are the next two worst food items...cinnamon gives me a major itchy rash with welts and also gives me runny nose and scratchy throat. I have gotten bronchitis from working with someone who chewed cinnamon gum and refused to stop when I asked him to because it was making me sick, I don't even have to eat the cinnamon to feel sick. Shrimp makes me vomit (sorry, yuck).
Any other foods give me only minor symptoms, and only seem to do so if I eat a lot of these foods. This list is huge and eating a small amount of anything on the list does not bother me. I am going to summarize the list here.
-The worst things are food additives including MSG but all food additives bother me. Anything with food dyes, preservatives, pretty much any canned or preprepared food bothers me. These things make my MG bad, but I don't notice any allergic response when I eat them.
-Sugar bothers me, too, mostly gives me itchy skin, and I am noticing that less sugar means less MG symptoms. I am having a difficult time eliminating sugar completely but I am working on it. Trying to only eat dark chocolate as my sugary treat.
-Acidic foods can be bad, too, I have to limit eating the sweetest fruits such as mangos, pineapple, bananas, etc. Citrus occasionally bothers me, but only if I have been eating lots of sugary foods. These fruits as well as any food or drink that lists Citric Acid gives me a sore throat.
(On the other hand, I must note here that if I don't eat fruits I get urinary tract infections...I have learned to eat one citrus fruit at least twice a week to avoid these infections. Citrus fruit or vitamin C is the only thing I have found that works to avoid these infections, in fact eating them in larger quantities cures an infection within one day for me, haven't needed antibiotics for a long time. So, I can't, or don't want to avoid citrus fruit.)
-And I am finding that foods in the nightshade family give me minor allergic reactions, or maybe they make me more susceptable to allergic reactions, and make my MG symptoms bad but only if I eat them every day (I love tomatoes and chilis!), these foods include tomatoes, chilis and potatoes. I don't think I am actually allergic to these foods, but rather there is some chemical process going on in my body that makes my immune system weaker when I eat them.
I hope that answers your question.
