How To Ascertain That One Is Allergic To Certain Foods?
Ok, I am 58, and in pretty good health. Just had an endoscopy and it was normal, but I spend half of my day being sick to my stomach. My diet is so bland, and I don't eat fatty foods. I am a vegetarian. So do I have food allergies that I don't know about?
What are the symptoms you suffer from? Diarrhea or pain abdomen or irritable bowel syndrome or inflammatory bowel disease etcetera. Avoid spicy food and alcohol. Avoid smoking and caffeine drinks.
