Is pork suitable to eat when you have fibromyalgia? I am in extreme pain, particularly at night. Sometimes it is so bad I can’t even lie down and have to use a recliner to sleep. What foods are good at night time? I tend to snack a lot, even right before bed.

Pork and all pig-derived products tend to cause acidity, which is not helpful for those with fibromyalgia. In terms of night time pain, it will help you a great deal if you stop eating at 6pm in the evening and don't snack at all after this time. This will reduce physical and metabolic pressure on your body, making it less likely to respond with pain signals. It may also be helpful if, when face-to-face consultations are once more possible, you seek help from a cranial osteopath.

If you would like more information on fibromyalgia and diet in the meantime, have a look at my blog on the topic.
