Stiffness in the morning? I think its the inflammation that leads to fluid in the joints and its the fluid that makes joints feel stiff and in my case, sometimes too loose as well...or so say my chiro and doctors..that's why I "overrotate" my SI joint, and why my ribs subluxate....my chiro can feel the fluid in my joints at times....

so, inflammation --> fluid -->stiffness

As for diet, see my longer response above:

for me, I'm highly sensitive to casein, at least cow casein, so I am largely dairy free.

Also, I'm sensitive to S cerevisiae yeast, so limited bread and other yeasty foods.

I had IgA / IgG antibody food and yeast testing done.

Also had IgA/IgG antibody testing, HLA DQ gene testing, and upper small intestine biopsy done for celiac...for me, gluten isn't the issue, but casein, yeast, and maybe egg is, so I avoid those food items.

I'm kinda low starch anyway due to the diabetes, but its really the dairy and yeast that I think are my biggest problems....I have real proof for the dairy doing a number on my gastritis, so assuming its a problem in general.
