Book overview
"What can you eat?"
I get asked this question all the time, especially after I list my 10 food allergies/intolerances, which currently are: Corn, wheat, dairy, eggs, yeast, soy, peas, peanuts, almonds and sesame. I admit I have to use my fingers so I don't miss one!
But it wasn't always this complicated. I can remember the first reaction I had when I was a teenager, it was to corn.
I muddled through life with odd headaches, panic attacks, etc. not really knowing what was happening. It wasn't until later that I realized most food allergy resources seemed to be aimed at children.
Adults have food allergies too!
I am not the only one and neither are you.
I am NOT a doctor, physician, nurse or in any way shape or form a medical expert.
All I am is someone who has lived with this way of life for 50+ years.
This book is meant to share my journey and as much as I can of what I have learned along the way. Eating as simply/cleanly as possible does not mean you have to be deprived. Thankfully, in today's grocery store there are an increasing number of options.
