The Fibromyalgia Diet: 40/30/30This diet was recommended by Dr.
Devin Starlanyl, MD in her book
Fibromyalgia & Chronic Myofascial Pain

Chapter 24. We feel that the guidelines in Dr. Starlanyl's book is very good for many people with FMS/MPS and have chosen to include it in our website. The first guidelines Dr. Starlanyl has are to avoid the following:
