CLEAN DIET -
Noun: As a result of AA or MDS and particularly during or after immunosuppressive or the bone marrow transplant treatments you are much less able to fight infections. One way that you can get an infection is through your food. The foods most likely to cause problems are raw or partially cooked meat, unpasteurised milk (green top), raw or partially cooked eggs, soft cheeses, blue cheeses, patés, salad, ready to eat poultry, cooked chilled foods (if the instructions are not followed properly), Chinese or Indian takeaways, and any food with mould growing on it. Other foods may become contaminated because of poor hygiene. Also dirty dishcloths, tea towels, or poor personal hygiene. See section on Clean Diet
