If you have been diagnosed with a particular disease or at high risk for a specific disease then take the time to have a sit down with your doctor. You can also really consider sitting down with a nutritionist for a more detailed idea of what you should or should not be eating.
Certain diseases require that you add or eliminate certain foods or ingredients from your diet. If your doctor or nutritionist tells you that you can not have something, then forget everything that I told you about moderation and listen to them. They know best! For example, I know someone that has some sort of disease that prevents her from eating vegetables. If that isn't a shocker, I don't know what is!
When you have this conversation take a food journal that you have kept for a while so that they are educated on what you actually consume on a normal basis. This is their profession, let them lead you. You should also take a notebook with questions and a pen to write answers. You often have limited time with them so use it wisely.
Put your flesh under subjection and do what you are instructed to do for your health.
