Intolerances and allergies

[musclemom]

Us together probably a dinner party nightmare!!!I probably agree with you about the possible stress thing as I think my problems stem from something similar about 10years ago.

Lactase doesn't seem to help with the lactose.

Also why does all chocolate seem to have milk in it or if not soya lecithin (forgot to mention my soya intolerance lol)

I like the one from the kid about veggies

That sucks about the lactase .

You CAN find chocolate that does not have milk or soy in it, but you need to a) go to a health food store; b) pay about $3.00 a bar c) still read a lot of labels. I know Art Bars (dark) are milk and soy free so they aren't the only one.

OMG I just noticed you live in Spain! Well, at least you're blessed there, such wonderful food with so many fresh meats and veg.

Currently the Art Bars site is down Chocolate - Fair Trade, Organic, Slavery-Free, Delicious! NO SOY!

but making your own chocolate candy wouldn't be hard, it's more about temperature control.

Green and Black's Fair Trade Organic Dark Chocolate.

Mayan Gold is fantastic and I also love Dark chocolate and Cherry.

I have a hypersensitivity reaction to house dust mites, and I think I am developing a pollen allergy, however, it doesn't seem to be any of the pollen in England, I get it mostly when I travel to other countries.

I am gluten and lactose intolerant, I can eat tiny amounts without any issues. Thank goodness for Lactaid because I love, Love, LOVE greek yogurt. I just wish there was something for gluten, but that is probably the one thing keeping me from indulging in desserts.

Lactose and gluten intolerant. Hard to digest soy, but that's given.
It's still manageable..

I have now developed hypothyroidism. It has been suggested that this was due to food allergies, so there is probably more to add to my list of foods I must avoid....let alone how much this has disrupted my training and the weight gain is awful!!!!
Helpppppppp anyone else experienced anything like this?

Severely allergic to dust mites & cochroach dander, when I had my allergy tests, the wheels(sp?) left marks on my arms for over a month. We grow/ keep lots of catnip around, as it repels roaches-fyi. No food allergies, although starchy food seem to make me very lethargic. I feel bad for anyone w/ food allergies. I have hypothyriodism also. We were exposed to pesticides/insect growth regulators for a few years and I think that caused our health problems. Anyway, only compounded T3 has helped in the past. I am trying some thyroid supplements/stimulators. Let ya know how that goes, so far so good. Also, does anyone know of a major detox supp or program that really works? Had a Dr. that was going to do IV chelation, but had retired before we we able to do so.
