Hi - new here in a desperate attempt to understand my delayed response, allergy results. Apparently I'm severely allergic to dairy and sunflower. Moderately to almonds, beef and cashews. AND.. more mildly to rice and eggs! On top of that I have a wheat allergy (immediate reaction)
Apparently it is affecting the health of my gut. Does anyone know more about the sunflower allergy? Does airborne count too here? I'm confused
Thanks!
Suzanne

Well, I'm not allergic to sunflower but it took me years to realize I had a wheat allergy. I learned a lot about leaky gut and how it can effect just about everything in your body and how not being aware of the ingestion of wheat (or anything else you may be allergic to) when you have an allergy to it can make a real mess of your gut and cause a lot of inflammation in your body. A good place for info on leaky gut is Think-Rite system. Don't know if you have any acid reflux but I sure did ....It was awful. Now its gone thank God!

My daughter Bella has an allergy to Sunflower Oil, seed, anything. We haven't taken any tests yet, she's only 22 months old. We figured it out when she was 6 months by switching from Gerber rice (which has soy) to Beechnut (with sunflower). I would love to know more from anyone and everyone. She has severe reflux from sunflower. I'm wondering how everyone else deals with it. So many junk foods have it, we are eating better as a family. ;) That's always good. I would love advise from adults with the allergy too. Good luck to everyone with this. I know it is difficult as a parent.

Not much help other than I too am allergic to sunflower. I cut out all products with sunflower seeds (along with sesame seeds) and less mucous now. My head swells like a puffy balloon with those. Read the labels..it will help :)
