Herx reactions

  • Allergic Reaction

    Ironically, as I’ve been writing about the foods I avoid because I’m allergic to them or because they give me a neurological reaction, I accidentally ate something this evening which was contaminated with corn starch. Contaminated might be the wrong… Continue reading

  • Eggs. Over. Easy.
