I started having these plaque-like stones several years ago. My health was poor because of a poor diet. I had chronically swollen tonsils and glands, and sore throat. The stones were foul-smelling.

As I improved my diet, I noticed the stones only appeared when I consumed grain-based products. I am on a fruitarian diet--mostly raw fruit and vegetable. The elimination of animal products and grains greatly improved my immune system and my general health. The tonsil stones disappeared! However, if I "cheat" and eat some grain-based foods like pasta or bread, the stones appear again.

I agree, they seem to get worse when I eat a lot of starches. When I'm on a low starch diet (4 servings per day) I don't seem to get them.

I had tonsil stones that developed every 6 months or so from the time I was 17 until 20. This was almost a decade ago. I had a serious weight problem at 20. The weight problem was solved by following the New Atkins Diet. Went from BMI of 42 to 22-23. Incidentally, in all the years of eating more vegetables/fruit/protein and less to no starch - no more tonsil stones... absolutely none from the time the diet changed.

I actually found the opposite to be true. I was vegan for awhile and developed tonsil stones when I started eating animal products again, following a grain free diet.
