Why Did I Wait?
Why Did I Wait?
I’m super excited to be getting tested for food allergies. It’s something I should have done a long time ago. I’m hopeful that with a little more knowledge about what foods I should be avoiding, I’ll be able to tweak my diet and feel even better.
A preliminary test showed that I am allergic to soy and eggs. Very interesting! I actually felt pretty terrible last spring when I was eating two huge bowls of cereal with soymilk every day plus a meal replacement shake with soymilk most days as well.
The follow up test that I’m waiting to hear back on gives more specific information - it tests 115 different foods! The testing company that my doctor likes is called Immuno Labs. Their website looks pretty sparse if you don’t have a login, but I liked the video of endorsements from doctors.
