I'm scared to eat anything new now. I only drink water as liquid. I cannot go to restaurants, so if there is a get-together, i eat my meal at home and then go out with everyone. Not much fun to no eat. At the hospital, they do their best to serve me no sulfites but i have to watch what they give me. I even went a whole day without food as what they served me is not on my list and i don't want to try anything new. Paranoid? you bet. This is the only way i can survive. If there's a war, i will be the 1rst to die of starvation if i can't find my foods. It's very scary. So i'm a prisoner of my own home, or a cheap date to go out as i don't eat. Any man out there want to not have to pay for my dinner? lol...I am serious, and it's not funny. Thanks for letting me vent.

I have pushed and resisted that relationship this past year through all the bullshit I have had to go through living with Herpes but once again, God is bigger than my stubbornness and broke through that outbreak cold sore and all I had Genital Herpes. For me personally, hearing over and over how I am not good enough has really invaded my mind in the worst way possible. I completely shut down and I was just waking up like is this how life going to end this temporary herpes outbreak “fuck everybody with herpes if you know what I mean” but let's be honest here...It is a cowardly to say no to herbal medicine. It is fear based. And it is dishonest to what my heart wants. Don't build a wall around yourself because you are afraid of herbals made or taking a bold step especially when it's come to health issues and getting cure. So many young men/ women tell me over and over that Dr Itua is going to scam me but I give him a try to today I feel like no one will ever convince me about herbal medicine I accept Dr Itua herbal medicine because it's cure my herpes just two weeks of drinking it and i have been living for a year and months now I experience outbreak no more, You can contact him if you need his herbal medicine for any such diseases like, Herpes, Hepatitis, HIV, Epilepsy, Infertility, Love Spell,. Email..drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com then what's app.+2348149277967.... My advice to any sick men/women out there is simple... Be Always an open book. Be gut wrenching honest about yourself, your situation, and what you are all about. Don't hold anything back. Holding back will get you nowhere...maybe a one way ticket to lonelyville and that is NOT somewhere you want to be. So my final truth...and I'm just starting to grasp this one..

It has caused me many sleepless nights. My brain just won't shut down. It is probably a form of anxiety. To combat the problem, I add a few drops of hydrogen peroxide (it reacts with the sulfites to turn them into harmless suphates) to all canned or bottled beer and most cheaper wines. In addition, my wife soaks all of my fresh or frozen vegetables in water doused with hydrogen peroxide. It is very difficult to eat out unless it is at a high end restaurant.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6193451673987183730.post-3093608944494258412017-10-19T14:52:21.023-07:002017-10-19T14:52:21.023-07:00I react to all candies in Canada and concentrated ...I react to all candies in Canada and concentrated fruit juices as well as dries and candied fruit Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6193451673987183730.post-85911289887430561762015-11-28T10:50:01.813-08:002015-11-28T10:50:01.813-08:00Thanks for listing symptoms that are outside the b...Thanks for listing symptoms that are outside the box .

Put me in the hospital twice and the second time I nearly died. The cause? Cheap wine.<br /><br />It's hard to put your finger on what causes the reactions, at least if you have it like me. Symptoms I deal with are systemic hives/rashes and in high doses, splitting headache. Problem is that the symptoms appear roughly 18 hours after ingestion and come on gradually over the following 12 hours.<br /><br />If having a serious reaction, typical medications like Reactine and Benedryl will stop it from getting much worse but do not actually make the symptoms go away. Visiting the hospital yields an even worse cure: Epeniphrine (Adrenaline) - which happens to be preserved with sulfites. Instead of your heart racing it slows down, at least in my case.<br /><br />Here in Canada they have to label if it contains more than 10 PPM of sulfites, but there are hidden sulfites in precursor products like corn starch, corn syrup, caramel color and a variety of other things which may not be listed on the label.<br /><br />Beer and eggs contain natural sulfites; I dont find that these naturally occuring sulfites bother me. It is only the human added preservative compounds that bug me.<br /><br />There is a compound called sulfite oxidase that your body uses to break sulfites down. In people like myself, I do not produce as much of it as many other people. So when I do have a reaction, the sulfite oxidase is depleted, and I will tend to get reactions intermittently for days or weeks afterwards as the stuff moves through my system.<br /><br />I have read that molybdenum is a precursor chemical to the body's manufacture of sulfite oxidase, and that molybdenum in the body is co-regulated by copper. So sensitivity to sulfites could be in part caused by either not enough molybdenum or by having too much copper. Unfortunately getting molybdenum supplements without copper added is difficult and they should only be taken with the supervision of your doctor.<br /><br />But back on topic, it is truly frustrating having this sensitivity. It often will pop up and it is difficult to deterine what you ate or drank that causes it. Even eating healthy unprocessed foods you can take in a lot, fresh prawns for example are treated with sulfites to prevent spotting on the shell. Once you get symptoms, your oxidsase levels are low to non existent and the smallest amount of sulfites can cause a reaction.<br /><br />Canadian Dudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12514421499967861685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6193451673987183730.post-12891009795239042222012-05-17T19:07:50.319-07:002012-05-17T19:07:50.319-07:00I just found out today (after an immune allergy te...I just found out today (after an immune allergy test) that I tested strongly against Sulfite.
