Yes, my ELISA test diagnosed allergy to egg white. I hadn't noticed symptoms, but I was also eating my other allergens before that test. However, whenever I got flu shots (cultured in egg white), I got very ill (nausea, feeling very tired, achy all over). I thought I got a mild case of flu, before I learned I was actually allergic to eggs. I don't miss them at all.

Eggs are a very common allergen and intolerance. I want to put it out there that I've found I can eat eggs from hens that have not been fed soy and corn, but eggs fed on soy are a problem for me. Duck eggs are fie, too. You might try soy free corn free eggs and see if they are easier on your system.

Yes we have to avoid eggs in our house too. I suggest the Allergen's Baker's Handbook by Cybele Pascal. YUMMY. You can use regular milk and butter in place of dairy free substitutes. You will probably like Schar's bread more than enjoy life's for a pre-made option.

A lot of members here have great recipes too.

Do a search of egg substitutions. baking powder and vinegar, pre-made powder mix, gelatin, chia seed, flax seed, and lots of pureed fruit options (apple sauce, bananas). The list is quite long.

This may sound crazy, and I can't remember if I heard this here or one of the other food intolerance forums I frequent, but if you cook an egg in the shell, it retains the sulfites, but if exposed to air, it doesn't. I wasn't really having a problem with eggs, but they stopped tasting good to me, to the point where they ALMOST made me a little nauseous. I had been boiling them. When I heard about this I tried frying them for a change, and they tasted great. If you think about it, you know how when you peel a hard boiled egg it smells so stinky? They don't stink when they are fried. That is the sulpher/sulphites. Some people have trouble converting sulphites to sulphates, which our bodies need.

Don't know if this has anything to do with it, but I thought I'd throw it out there.

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
