Following along on this thread. Salty things definitely made my mouth more dry during its bad phase. Even now my lips are still enough dry that they stick to a pretzel while eating. I used to get choked up on almonds too when swallowing..and bread. I haven't started any diet yet but plan too first of year. I wanted to mention that since all my symptoms started, that I'm using a dry mouth floride rinse every night. I didn't have any cavities at my recent checkup in July despite the bad dry mouth preceding the appt. I use ACT dry mouth floride. It's also supposed to soothe irritated tissues in the mouth.

I think I'll def have to cut back on salty I think. My lips are quite often dry too. I don't think I could eat pretzels, almonds or bread at the moment. Good luck on your diet, I went on AIP for a month and have since added back in rice, mayonnaise, soy sauce, milk and haven't had any adverse effects that I'm aware of. I hope to be able to add everything back in eventually.
     I use fluoride toothpaste and also a fluoride mouthwash. I hope to be like yourself and have no cavities. I use Japanese brands(can't find any of the ones mentioned on this site) i have a friend coming over in January who will bring me some biotene toothpaste and mouthwash, also some oral 7. I'm looking forward to using it.
