Laura,
I have read enough about the NSD to be convinced that it has helped many people.
But before my onset, I was on a diet where I shunned rice, potatoes, bread, cereal, and pasta - but I ate tons of fatty meat and cheese. I did keep my weight down, but developed symptoms of AS
I am now convinced that a plant based diet, with very little meat, is the way to go. I do eat potatoes, rice, etc. now and I feel good when I do. It seems the cause of AS symptoms can vary from person to person.
