Do cashew nuts cause Tonsilloliths (Tonsil Stones)? Any other foods that might be a cause?
I have been having trouble with Tonsilloliths – a lot lately. Bad breath, foreign object feeling deep inside the mouth and a lot of time wasted in front of the mirror, especially after brushing – trying to coax that thing out of my mouth. And then, that nasty foreign object automatically dropping into my mouth at odd times.
Researched online but found little information on how to prevent or get rid of this problem for good.
I noticed that the situation seems to be at its worst especially within a few days of my having cashew nuts. Once I realized that there might be a link, I gave up cashews for a while and noted the recurrence, and then again noted after having them regularly for a while. Cashews did seem to aggravate the problem.
Could someone else suffering from this problem share their experience? Or try it out – if cashews are part of the diet? Any other foods that could be causing the problem?

name is Lesli Paterson, and welcome to my blog. I created this blog to
help other people like me who are suffering with tonsil stones.
The most likely cause is dairy products eaten later at night ie milk cheese etc and then the bacteria settling on your tonsils, either way if you gargle as far back in your throat as possible every night before bed it should help. I used to drink a glass of milk every night but stopped about 4 months ago and haven’t had a problem since.
