Does anyone have any particular food intolerances or allergies?
How do you overcome any problems caused by adjusting your diet to elimanate those particular ‘problem’ foods?
Do you try to find a substitute for the foods you cannot eat or just learn to live without them?
I used to be severely allergic to shell-fish, and on couple of occasions I ended up in a hospital. Despite the fact, I just love shell fish, and I kept eating here and there. I just don't know what are the 'triggering factors'. Many say that it's due to the presence of idodide based contents in shell-fish. I am pretty sure I am immune to this particular kind of allergy now, since I haven't had any incidence over the last few years. I am also allergic to Penicillin.
Whenever I eat desi food, I get red around my chin and mouth area, and I start to itch. I think it's the masala. Happens with prawns as well. It's not really enough to stop me from eating desi food or prawns so it's not so bad. My whole family's also allergic to penicillin, like Abdullah. Would be a pretty effective way to mass murder the lot of us.
my kids are allergic to nuts ....specially peanuts !
it triggers severe cough n running nose etc.
n i just get mad when i see a warning for peanut's allergy even on cornflakes .....
but well, i try my best to avoid everything with peanuts .....but can't help in case of corn flakes .(they love it)...so whenever they have cornflakes ....i make sure they have some green tea with cinnamon too!
YEah if I eat , Potato chips , I dont feel well.
Yep...i have many side effects with eating eggs.....
It seems that a lot of people are allergic to pennicilin. What's the alternative, if any, to it?
Afia - I must admit it does usually annoy me no end when I get letters sent from the nursery asking parents not to give their children anything that might have the slightest trace of nuts, just for the one or two children that have the allergies. But now I'm feeling a bit guilty......I didn't realise they could be so badly affected.
To an extent I'm lactose intolerant. Alhamdulillah, it's not at all bad. However, whenever I have my milk, I either feel like throwing up or my stomach starts to hurt in a weird way.
Cheese and other dairy products are fine, so long as I don't consume'em in large quantity. However, drinking milk makes me sick shortly after.
I once got allergic to a particular type of shrimps. They were the best tasting shrimps I've ever had. I got very itchy and it lasted for a few days, but I didn't give up on'em.
Anam's allergic to
eggs
nuts
bananas
soya
food color and preservatives
Try organizing dinner keeping that in mind, no try living keeping that in mind. 24/7 fear. Cause if she eats anyone of 'em and if not treated on time it might result in death depending on what she's eaten. Esp eggs.

From what I have came to known, there are some variants of pencillin that do not cause allergy, or what one of the doctors told me, "remotely connected to Pencillin family". I really haven't taken any antibiotics for the past many years..maybe, we can get some professional input on this issue..?
