Bellow you will find a list of allowed foods divided by category.
Under the item you will find the phase it's allowed from, and a link to an ingredient highlight page if one is available.
REMEMBER that for the attack phase, non protein items are always meant to be used sparingly, just to add flavour!
I'll be adding more detailed items and additional comments based on phases soon, so please, when in doubt, use common sense and the Dukan Diet book as reference :)
