BH4BP #55 – You’re Probably Intolerant, but It May Be a Food Allergy




Being Healthy for Busy People show

Summary: <br> <br> This week’s show, like last week’s is being recorded in the Fresno area. So, if you noticed any differences in the sound due to the room acoustics, it’s the apartment we’re staying in that’s causing it.  I’ll be out here for a few months, so we’re adjusting our recording setup to minimize echoes.  Bear with us, it should get better.<br> Many people suspect they have a food allergy when, in reality, they often only have a food intolerance.  The confusion comes because a food intolerance can have some of the same symptoms as a food allergy, even though what causes them is quite different.<br> Since many people have had an unpleasant reaction to something they ate at one time or another and might have thought it was due to a food allergy, I decided to talk about the differences between food allergies and food intolerances.  In this show, I will cover how to tell them apart and give you some ways to manage them.<br> Here is a link to the <a href="http://www.beinghealthy.tv/archives/lactose_intolerance/">lactose intolerance</a> article that I promised you.<br> Some references I used while researching this show are <a href="http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/food-allergy/DS00082">Mayo Clinic</a> and <a href="http://www.webmd.com/allergies/foods-allergy-intolerance">WebMD</a>.<br> The video podcast for this week is:<br> <br> * <a href="http://www.beinghealthy.tv/archives/bhtv005/">Strength Training: It’s for You.
