Low carb can cure allergies
We've been eating low carb for almost two months now and I just noticed that my stuffy nose is gone! I'm allergic to something - but after 100+ pin pricks, the allergist wasn't able to figure out what I was allergic to. Since it's more of an annoyance than a problem, I just take benadryl a lot - a lot as in every day. (My allergist didn't recommend this. He recommended nose washes which also worked but took more time and were harder to do away from home.) Today I realized:
- I have not been taking benadryl or even feeling like I need it for over a month now.
- Last night we had lasagna (very high carb) and I woke up with a stuffy nose this morning.
Not conclusive proof but a very good sign that I am mildly allergic to one of the high carb foods that I've cut out of my diet recently.
