    Hi JAnn,

    Thanks for the response about diet, as it's something I'm experimenting with. It sounds like what you do is very similar to what the author Udo Erasmus recommends in his food pyramid: http://www.udoerasmus.com/pyramid/pyr_index.htm. In essence, getting most of one's carboydrates from greens rather than starchy foods, etc. Your postings have been an inspiration to me.....

    As I posted earlier, I haven't seen any credible evidence linking diet directly to Dupuytren's. However, Dupuytren's is strongly linked to diabetes, and there seems to be some evidence that diabetes is brought on in part by over consumption of sugars and simple carbohydrates. So getting one's calories from complex carbohydrates is probably a good idea.
