This is just turning into a regular little series, isn’t it? “What’s in YOUR ______?” I try not to be paranoid or overzealous, but with my new FPIES Eyes, I’m finding more and more things to be disgusted about regarding our food/consumable goods supply. So, I guess I’ve accidentally started … Continue reading
One thing I figured out early on in my elimination diet is that I’m basically eating a modified (and greatly limited) Paleo Diet. I’m not convinced that strictly Paleo is the way to go, but I can’t argue that grains (specifically wheat) and sugar are poison for my body! Consequently, … Continue reading
