My Lips Are So Dry

Ok, my lips are SOOO dry...peal and always look terrible. I don't wear lipstick..ever. The only thing I use EVERY NOW AND THEN is Carmex. But besides that, I'm not using anything on them. Does anyone know why? Could it be something I bath with, or come in contact with? What about my boyfriend and kissing? Maybe after he's eaten? I need help b/c they are ALWAYS sore and I know they look terrible....

Thanks!!!

It's possible you're not getting enough fat in your diet.

It's possible you're not getting enough fat in your diet.

Exactly what I was going to say. I want to qualify that saturated fats are very important for our bodies (contrary to popular opinion), and also essential fatty acids (especially omega 3s) are needed (preferably from an animal source, like fish oil, flax-seed oil is not nearly as good).

      Interesting, when I suffered for a few months with ectopics I noticed that carbohydrates would cause indigestion and bloating in my stomach, then that would lead to my heart skipping beats, and I could feel it in my throat, it was very unsettling.  My last serious bout of this was after eating a Muller Rice Pudding for breakfast.   I happened to be wearing a 48 hour halter at the time and cardiology picked it up, but they weren't worried about what they saw. There was some British doctor who'd made some videos on the Vagus nerve that I remember watching at the time which made sense of what I was experiencing, there did seem to be some sort of connection.

      I asked my cardiologist about stopping vitamins.  He said his tests account for all detectable vitamins from sources other than food.  I only need to stop them for a couple of days.  He has me keep records of meds and vitamins I've ingested over the past 10 days and prior and he does his calculations.

      Reply to treats I try and eat to bring up the glucose. Sometime I get up 3 times a night and eat something. I don't think food is the issue. A lot of the food they say should help doesn't.  Many mornings my level is 59 and I feel sick, sometimes for hours. It has been recommended I go to an Endocrinologist.
