breaking out in hives when eating certain foods
Posted , 4 users are following.
I seem to be allergic to many foods but have to put on weight and so I am asking what I can eat to do so. (on a gluten free, non diary, non meat, no sugar diet at the mo because otherwise I break out in hives or get really nasty infected spots on my face).

However - I used to develop hives and a nasty infected rash, not on my face so much but on my trunk. I tried an Atkins-style diet to lose weight and realised when I was sticking to it I didn't have problems but every time we came on holiday to Italy (3 or 4 times a year) it returned. The only difference was that I was occasionally eating pizza or pasta here, I never did at home in the UK. I tried a gluten-free diet and it seemed to work - except in the UK at that time some gluten-free baked stuff was made with a special "washed wheat starch" where the gluten had been removed from the wheat. That still made me itch. So I experimented and found that it is only products made with normal highly-processed commercial wheat. Other grains are OK, even the "soft" Canadian wheat is OK in smaller amounts, it is just the "hard" wheat that is mainly used for manufactured products in the UK and the doctors thought it was probably another part of the wheat grain that caused the allergy rather than the gluten.

I was eating oatmeal a lot and got so tired of it and haven't touched it in a while now....making my soups and eating some animal protein works best for me....
I eat mostly goat milk yogurt which is low in sugar etc...and the other day I had a little portion of this yogurt with a dolop of cashew nut butter and a little bunch of raisins,,,,what a treat!!!!
I attempt to eat as organic as possible.....most of my money NOW goes on keeping healthy into my twilight years.....been there buying and consuming all the "stuff" for many years. J
