I have pancreatitis and have to eat a low fat diet with no meat, cheese or ALCOHOL.

    My sympathies. I understand the pain index is right up there with this condition.

    Egg whites, tofu, all the veggies. Thank goodness bread is still on the list.

  • I had pancreatitis when I was pregnant with my daughter. I literally spent an entire week in the hospital with only an IV, not allowed to eat, to try and lower the levels and avoid an emergency c section so I understand your pain!

    Definitely fruits and veggies. I found that oatmeal worked really well for me, but that eggs aggravated it more.

    Is it being caused by gallstones?

    You should ask for a session with a dietician.
