Feeling Blah

October 24, 2013
I didn't get to the gym yesterday or today I am having a bad allergy reaction to corn. Why would it be in soy sauce???
I will be so glad to try the new NEAT treatment for this. It is awful to wake up at 1;30 am not able to breath because of this. I still feel terrible today, it usually takes 4 days to get it out of my system completely. I have been better at reading labels, but missed this one.
Here is some info on Corn Allergies.

Definition of Corn Allergy

Corn allergy is the inability to fully digest the corn protein Zein. It is an enormous protein - like other grain proteins including Gluten from wheat, rye and others. Many people do not have the biological equipment to break down these proteins in the digestive tract. So the semi-broken down molecules end up in the small intestine and disrupt the digestive process. In some cases they actually damage the lining of the gut - a condition known as Leaky Gut.

What are the Symptoms of Corn Allergy?

Here are some of the symptoms suffered by people with corn allergy:
  • Headache, migraine
  • Skin rashes
  • Breathing difficulties: sinusitis and sinus headache
  • Aching muscles in the back, neck or legs
  • Joint inflammation and stiffness
  • Lethargy - extreme lack of energy
  • All over feeling of ill health
However these symptoms are exactly the same as those for other intolerances like dairy and gluten. Luckily the Journal Method always pinpoints your intolerance accurately.
