Another interesting read (food allergies or food intolerance).....

Food allergies ? or food intolerance ?


What's the difference ? Nicely explained in the above link, along with a lot of the bullshit that surrounds such issues.

And yes, I do have a friend who is a coeliac so have a vague understanding of it. Like-wise, I have a couple of friends who're type 1 diabetics and understand about the insulin and sugar thing (of course, there's lots about these kind of conditions that I don't know or understand - just that I have enough knowledge to make sure that I don't give them anything that might be an issue to them).....

The article explains a lot of stuff, including why a lot of this is complete bollocks. Not in the sense that these conditions aren't real, but about how many people have/suffer from them.

If they took the appropriate/proper route to find out, then the medical experts would tell them to fuck off, like the thick hypochondriac fools that they are........

The thing that the article alludes to that makes me wonder, is that if we, as a species, have been consuming such foods for millennia,  then apart from those who do have a properly diagnosed form of say coeliac disease or maybe peanut allergy etc, why is it that so many people claim to have such issues ? apart from them having an increased level of gullibility to advertising ?

Hey ho!
