Can I stop my trigeminal neuralgia pain with a diet? If you have typical TN, there is a good chance you can regardless of previous surgeries or radiation. I have been a patient advocate with the Trigeminal Neuralgia Association for the past 10 years promoting this diet. I made a presentation at the Association’s 2004 National Conference at the Disney World Resort. The diet’s only requirement is saturated fat be limited. If you would like an eight-page report with diet instruction, testimonials, diet history, and the amount of saturated fat in 140 foods, please contact me at or phone .
