My body can't tolerate bad food anymore! How about you?

I recently started dealing with a rash everytime I eat or drink anything that was processed. It has gotten so bad that I have had to go to the emergency room twice because of this. This change happened so suddenly and I think it's ironic that this started happening after multiple years of telling my husband that we both need to give up all the junk food and processed foods. Now he actually sees that my body can't tolerate processed food anymore and it's definitely an adjustment after so many years of the wrong kind of diet. Truthfully I'm glad that my body is so smart and it is telling me what it needs to survive and thrive.

It just doesn't make sense that your body can somehow discern when a food has undergone processing and that causes you to break out in a rash. "Processing" is a term that covers a wide variety of practices. It sounds like you may have an allergy or sensitivity to some ingredients.

What components in processed food is causing this reaction? Have you done any experimentation to try to isolate the culprits so you can avoid them in any type of food you eat?

BTW, the last post in this thread was over 3 years ago...

I remember my first KFC meal after I started tracking calories. It was one of the first things to go, but I walked about 7 mi that day and could fit it in, so why not have a treat? I did enjoy it, but oh god the gas and diarrhea afterward. I'll still dabble now and then but at least I know what to expect.
