Stopping Myeloma at the MGUS Stage

I have been doing pescatarian and trying as much as possible to avoid inflammatory foods like tomato eggplant although sometimes have potatoes.
What I haven’t done is avoid milk and wheat.
Has anyone found casein or gluten avoidance to slow the progression?

I have celiac disease, so of course I’m not eating gluten. My numbers have stayed pretty stable. I haven’t voluntarily ingested gluten in a decade or more, so I don’t have any control data that supports that a gluten-free diet has a lower rate of progression.
I suspect a lot of it has to do with coexisting conditions and other variables that make it hard to generalize the impact of something like diet. The Level of compliance is another variable. My spouse will say that he’s been on a gluten-free diet as long as I have because we just don’t keep gluten products in the house. I suspect, however, that he makes a run for the closest donut shop whenever I am not in tow. 😂. I can hardly blame him!
