There is not much scientific evidence to support any kind of specific eating plan. The reason is that fibromyalgia is not a specific disease, but a set of symptoms. What works for one person might have little or no effect on another person. A fibromyalgia diet should definitely exclude in all cases NutraSweet or Aspartame, food additives like monosodium glutamate and nitrates, sugar, fructose, and simple carbohydrates, yeast, gluten, dairy, and even nightshade plants.
WebMD is a gold mine for information relating to fibromyalgia. There is a breakdown of the condition, symptoms, treatment and diet information. The diet actually tells you foods to avoid. http://www.webmd.com/fibromyalgia/guide/fibromyalgia-the-diet-connection
The fibromyalgia diet is a diet, any diet, designed for people who suffer from fibromyalgia. It's purpose is to help ease the suffering of those affected with the disease. http://www.fibromyalgia-diet.ws/
The best way to find out if a diet would help fibromyalgia is to visit a doctor and have him or her explain the side effects by being on a diet with this disease.
Fibromyalgia is a chronic disorder characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, and tenderness in localized areas. A diet for fibromyalgia would be a diet that could help reduce pain and help the sufferer live more comfortably.

It is not likely that a diet plan for fibromyalgia will give quick recovery. The diet plan will help the disease, but the recovery won't happen extremely fast. It will take time and you will see the progressive recovery as you go through the diet plan.
I have read that there really is not many studies on which diet is best for fibromyalgia. I did find a site that says eating a balanced diet would help. This site has information on the balanced diet www.fibromyalgiadietandtreatment.com/.
You can find fibromyalgia diet plans and supplements on the internet, but you should ask your doctor first. Also going on daily walks helps a lot. www.fibromyalgia-symptoms.org/forums/���Fibromyalgia_���Diet/���List_of_acceptable_���food
Fibromyalgia is becoming more prevalent in our society, so don't feel alone! One website that has really helped me learn more about how to diet with Fibromyalgia is: http://www.webmd.com/fibromyalgia/guide/fibromyalgia-the-diet-connection.
A person with fibromyalgia should generally eat fresh fruits and vegetables, and avoid caffeine. Otherwise the diet restrictions vary from person to person.
I have personally decreased my Fibromyalgia pain by changing my diet and lifestyle. I have removed processed foods, MSG & gluten from my diet. Making these changes have returned me to a quality of life very close to what I had prior to the illness and symptoms that lead to my Fibromyalgia diagnosis.
While there are no conclusive studies showing a link between diet and fibromyalgia, it is still possible that specific foods have an effect on people who suffer from fibromyalgia. These vary on a case to case basis, so a fibromyalgia sufferer should look out for specific foods that may cause additional discomforts such as irritable bowel symptoms.
WebMD is full of many suggestions for diets. They have an area for foods to avoid if you have fibromyalgia. Livestrong.com also has diet plans that you may be able to cater to your needs.
