Interstitial Cystitis diet. Is there a diet which improves the quality of life of people with Interstitial Cystitis?
Diet and Interstitial Cystitis: foods that patients report help their quality of life, with a medically reviewed summary.
Of course there is a diet, which can be found at your doctors office or online at www.ic-network.com. In a flare, bland foods are best. Organic food is even better. Remember to make sure you are not nutrition deficient, it can be hard to eat in a painful flare. Foods are listed as safe, try, and avoid. I can have chocolate because it doesn't set me off. But I can never have alcohol, which is on the avoid list. This diet is strict but if maintained will help you understand food triggers over time!

Again, this is a personal thing. Some people need to be very selective with an IC diet while others are not affected. This is a trial and error that you must go through to see if it is right for you. The most frustrating thing about the diet is that unlike diabetes, there can be no immediate consequence for eating a taboo food. If I have a glass of orange juice, I may be ok. But, if I have a slice of tomato in my salad for dinner (totally forgetting that I had the oj) then it is pain city!
I have a sensitivity to acids like citrus juices, raw tomatoes/peppers/onion/cucumbers. A lot of chocolate, carbonated drinks, and coffee will hurt too.

Avoiding carbonated and high acid food is best for Interstitial Cystitis.
