Following on from a recent post by a newbie who has started to clear rapidly after realising they had an egg allergy. I thought it important to highlight this partiocular allergy. Why ? Because eggs are in so many things you dont realise from bread, ice cream, custard, fried foods. It could even be possible that think they have wheat allergy when they have developed an egg allergy in the bread, for example.
Original post from the gluten/dairy fre ethread by SGM:
I have been suffering from P for over four years. I have had three major outbreaks that required phototherapy, I had tried all kinds of different diets and remadies with no success. I had thought all along that it may be a food allergy and began to eliminate different foods from my diet, still the P was reappearing, particularly after alcahol and different toxic food/drinks. I found this site almost three weeks ago and immediately went on the gluten milk free diet, still the symthoms kept reappearing. I looked back at my diet and there was one common item on my diet "eggs" I had eggs in my diet every day, I thought this couldent be., but Googled egg allergy and first up was a site that stated eggs as being one of the six top food allergies. Immediately I stopped eating eggs, it is now six days since I stopped eating eggs and my P has gotten dramatically better, I use ointment I got from the Derm and in these locations the P has almost completely dissappeared, only stains remaining. I thought my life was ruined when the P kept reappearing and now cant tell you how happy it makes me to see I have finally found the cause. I have read in my research that people with egg allergies normally see their skin allergies flare up within hours of eating eggs I found this to be exactly true for me. I believe now looking back at my symptoms being allergic to eggs caused leaky gut and when I began to consume alcahol and other toxic foods that caused P. Although this site is to talk about gluten and milk allergies I wanted to take the time to write this message as it may help one other P sufferer, then it would be worth it. I want to especially say thank you to UVB your first poasting helped me more than anything to find my allergy. If anybody wants help finding informtion on egg allergies post and I will answer you back.
