Growing allergies, shrinking self-esteem
posted August 17th, 2019 at 8:12 PM
In the past few years I have suddenly become allergic to ALMOST EVERYTHING! Wheat, soy, barley, corn, peanuts, possibly oats...the list is ever growing. Not to the point of ambulance emergency but I get horrible mouth pain and bad breath. Originally I thought a dental issue of course, but that has been professionally discounted. Every time I think I have 'solved' it and have resigned myself to living without the before-mentioned foods, the issue reemerges and I'm allergic to something new. Silver lining, I'm very thin!

Most of the foods on your list are GMO, which is known for causing stomach issues. They're made to destroy insects via their stomach. You might feel better if you invest in organic foods.

Were you diagnosed by a proper allergist or a naturopath? Because bad breath isn't an allergy symptom

The plant paradox
Go on that diet
Agree with the above
all those foods are GMO that you’re reacting to

You might be right. Certain foods seem to trigger the problems though. Maybe they just cause dry mouth (which I have). I do tend to breathe through my mouth especially at night. @Quality&Read, thanks for the ideas.
