Hi XXXXXXX.
Well, this is not so simple unfortunately.
First we dont know exactly which disease you have. This is mildly elevated eosonophils which means that there is some allergic reaction in your body. This is nonspecific and can mean nothing. Many people react with raised eosinophils when come in contact with specific alergenes.These are benign allergic diseases such as sinusitis,asthma and other respiratory allergies. So first you need to find out what causes your allergies. Considering other symptoms you ve mentioned and you age some more complex diseases must be considered such as juvenile artritis, lupus or other autoimmune disorders. Do you have joint pain and swelling? So i recommend to do further testing such as pulmonary function and allergies prick test. Food can be only one of alergenes. So when you find out which one is bad for you then you can know what to avoid.
Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help
