Food Allergies and Issues

My family has numerous issues and food allergies.

Here’s a list of everything we cannot tolerate or cannot eat due to reactions or dietary restrictions. I dare you to find one thing in your pantry and/or fridge that we can eat and post that in the comments.

I cannot have anything cheese or milk based as my stomach rebels. I eat Greek yogurt and some cheese with no issues. Garlic  and Ginger – I cannot have these as I will get a migraine.

We cannot have any products that contain:

Honey

Squash or gourds (such as pumpkin)

Nuts *peanuts are not nuts* (we can use peanut butter with no issues)

Soy *no soy*

Milk

High Fructose CORN syrup

Corn – Any type of corn derivative, no corn meal, corn on the cob, corn syrup, no corn. *yes, popcorn counts, even the “none allergy kind and Pirate booty too!*

 

Dietary restrictions for one person:

No meat, chicken or pork

No bread

So, we are switching to more fish and fruits and veggies for my daughter which was suggested as an anti-inflammatory diet. No bread is hard for her, the veggie part is okay, easy. She can have tuna and salmon. She cannot eat soy, corn products. That’s really hard for her. Oatmeal is okay. She cannot have honey, so I use Agave when I cook. She cannot have squash.

The corn allergy is real. My grand-daughter was getting head aches and getting sick at school. We couldn’t figure out why. We eliminated ALL corn products. High fructose corn syrup is in everything. Ketchup, cereal, snacks. She now takes pretzels for her snack at school and I found a great juice box for her to take. The Snapple half and half was making her get a headache.

Hopefully this diet will help her feel better and get back on track with her pain issues. We’re still seeing doctors even after 10 months since the car accident.
