I don't post here very often. I don't always need a list, or if i do it is short enough not to make it to the blog. I just got paperwork from the new doc i'm seeing about "food allergies." So i'm going to list it here.
This is what the reports show that i'm allergic to:
Alfalfa +1
Amaranth +1
Beans, navy +1
Beans, pinto +1
Cauliflower +1
Egg +2
Lentil +1
Lettuce +2
Milk, cow's +1
Mushroom +1
Pepper, cayenne +1
Radish +1
Safflower +1
Seed, caraway +1
Tomato +1
Yeast, baker's +3
Yeast, brewer's +2
The copy isn't very clear. Some of these look like a negative (-) rather than a positive (+). The scale goes +1, +2, +3, +4, with the higher numbers more sensitivity. So, almost everything here is very mild.
Still lettuce is one of my higher responses? Who is allergic to LETTUCE?

This is a lot of food i CAN eat, however, much of it is not what i would normally have, so it means changing my diet significantly. Also, there are some things on here i won't eat. No meat. I think canola oil is one of the very worst, i won't touch it. I won't eat soybean in any form, either. (I do believe organic, fermented soybean is healthy, but yuck!) I also won't eat the gluten items, even if i'm not showing allergy. It is very clear by my history that gluten items bother me a lot, even if i'm not showing allergy. So no wheat, rye, barley. As tea tends to be high in fluoride, i limit that already. I don't drink coffee 90% of the time, & never black.

This 4-day rotation plan has been created for you using the foods that were tested and were non-reactive. You may eat each food as often on that day as you choose. If you need to move a food from one day to another (for example, if you like peas and rice together), that is fine, just be careful not to repeat the same food two days in a row. Remember, do not eat any item to which you are reactive.
