    all nuts, can't have any sort of dairy or cheese, no breads (white or whole wheat), no processed foods...type 1 diabetic, with mild kidney disease....so have to count all proteins, sodium intake daily and if I end up caving and having even a handful of chips or anything......I pay for it big time...not worth it but sometimes my diet gets to me....too bland.....there's no fun in working out and eating right and not getting to reward yourself from time to time....but oh well. :wink:

    Wheat. Non-celiac.

    Unfortunately I love foods with wheat. But when I eat them I have to put up with IBS problems afterwards.

    I LOVE PISTACHIOS and sadly they give me a very horrible stomach ache, no other nut does that and I like them all but really love those pistachios. But I guess it could be worse my daughter has an intolerance to dairy, I would have to cut out like half of my diet if I had that intolerance.

    Bananas!

    I've never understood why... Since I was about three or four years old, they've given me terrible stomach cramps. My mother can't eat them either... I assume it's is somehow genetic but have not been able to find any scientific literature to support it!

    Garlic is the worst!! onions, anything spicy, greasy or fatty or creamy. Freshly baked anything :( discovered I get migraines from fresh baked rolls from the supermarket. chicken, sweetcorn. Chocolate and coca cola, these flare up my asthma.

    So horrible when your body rejects things you would love but kinda helpful in a way too I guess haha.

    well i'm lactose intolerant, but red meats, breads/pasta/oats, and most seafood. I love all of those things, unfortunately.

    Peanut butter would be very devastating!

    So far, I haven't had any issues with any food allergies or my stomach being upset except I cannot digest Hardees or Burger King.

    I'm allergic to sweets - when I eat them, it turns into fat! ;)

    lactose - everything but yoghurt with cultures and cream makes me react.
    and soy products - soy milk and soy beans.
    worst of both worlds. :(

    Sugar substitutes do horrible things to me. Except for Stevia.

    seafood. the merest hint of it in a dish, even in an oil or splash of stock, and I throw up until there is nothing left in my stomach, then continue to throw up for another few days. can't even keep down water. my body thinks seafood is poisonous and goes out of it's way to rid itself of it.

    on and I developed puberty-onset intolerances to potato, tomato and dairy aged 12-14. Went on an elimination diet and then eventually worked them back in and now I can eat them just fine, but back in the day i'd get severe attacks of sinus pain, nosebleeds, and migraines from them.

    Cooked or ripe bananas have always made me nauseous (never eaten banana cake - the smell makes me gag). I'm fine with unripe bananas though. My daughter will throw up if fed anything with banana in it. I'm assuming she inherited her intolerance from me but has taken it up a level.

    DAIRY! Which kills me cause I love dairy in every form, from pure milk to yogurt. My stomach protests though. but these days its been getting better, and I can cook my oats in skimmed milk now. Still a bit scared to drink a pure glass of whole milk though, and that was something I used to do as a habit.

    I wish I could be intolerant to celery. =.=

    Are your intolerances diagnosed by a doctor or self? I'm struggling with an intolerance but cant tell what exactly or if its worth bothering a doctor with...any advice?
