She's allergic to so many things, it's insane. She can't eat tomatoes, beans, legumes, and wheat, and probably others that I've forgotten. Wheat is very inflammatory for her. Since she's changed her eating habits, she feels better overall, her hormonal shifts aren't as drastic, her brain fog is gone, and her sugar & carb cravings are nil. <br />I have gradually decreased sugar in my diet in general, and I'm finding that now I am craving protein more often than carb. I don't need to diet so much as just eat better. And I have found the blessing of uncured bacon and uncured hot dogs, to get around my sulfur & nitrate allergies. And I'm working things like spinach and kale into the family dinners. I love that my 2 year old grabbed a head of cauliflower, bag of carrots, and stalks of broccoli at the grocery store. How many toddlers do you know that do THAT?Feisty Irish Wenchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00689381839029507940noreply@blogger.com
