Here's some initial findings I have from FOODON or other ontologies to address our avoidance terms. Most of these are likely appropriate for a DOSDP pattern for food_intake_aviodance (I think that's what we had determined for our term choice?). Others may need additional consideration as they relate to either micro or macronutrients and are not a distinct food.
Github doesn't support excel files and I cannot read this. Can you attach a txt or tsv? I believe copy and paste will give markdown format as well.

Now the excel files are showing up. Weird. Okay thanks, I will take a look. best.
Closing this as nearly all are in other tickets or have been added.
These are terms that were identified by the initial pass at GeneReviews for 'avoid x'. The number is the number of times the term was found. I do not think all of these should be added, but maybe we can come up with some broad categories? Note: some I did add. We may wish to get rid of them.
