About this listen

Our special guest is a local University student majoring in Health Sciences, Kieran, who lives with severe food sensitivities to coconut, wheat, corn, tree nuts, eggs. Wheat, corn, and coconut are the hardest to live with. "The best way to protect myself from eating these foods is to read the ingredients." Must be diligent and always read the ingredients. Manufacturers will change the ingredients. Sometimes you need a chemistry degree to understand what the ingredients are in the food. Sometimes you need to do research to understand where some of these ingredients are derived from. Being able to make things like pastries or things you can't eat anymore, it's nice to have something once in a while that everyone else takes advantage of. We must be able to make knowledgeable decisions about the foods we eat. There are many alternative options. Be open to experiment and do research. Ask for help. Get creative with someone. Focus on what you can have instead all the things you can't. Have a recipe book! By getting off the foods that cause reactions has been so worth the feeling of energy and health. Don't miss an episode!
