On intolerances, allergies and holding your body to a higher standard.

Corn, dairy and processed sugars.

Those are the things i try and avoid at all costs. The first two because my body actively hates them and the latter, because i have a basic grasp of nutrition.



Some people are still of the mindset that intolerances and allergies aren't a real thing; like they don't believe in them. They believe sufferers are just being too sensitive or its all in their heads.
Its to those people that i suggest that maybe, just maybe i just hold my body to a higher standard.

In my experience its the same people who believe that, who also are some of the least healthy people. They're the ones who warn others that they just destroyed the toilet, that they just ate an entire large meat lovers pizza and can't walk up a flight of stairs without breaking into a sweat and panting.

Food sweats, my friend, aren't a healthy part of balanced nutrition. Sure, many of us have been there but if its just something that you're used to, you might want to think about evaluating your lifestyle.

I don't eat corn because it causes inflammation/PND in my sinus and feels like i have a constant head cold. Others might not even realize they are constantly sniffing or congested but now i have a taste for NOT feeling like that, i'm gonna go the extra step to keep it that way.

I don't eat dairy, not just because cows milk is for baby cows, but because i am severely lactose intolerant. It causes stomach pains, extreme bloating, diarrhea and awful toots. It also makes me lose my appetite completely for a few days after because my body is trying to figure out wtf to do with this stuff. Others might think that these things are just a normal part of digestion; i choose to skip that stuff.

Sugar used to be a grand old friend of mine but now, it makes me feel like shit. It gives me stomach aches, the jitters, the sugar come-downs and isn't great for your reproductive and urinary system- especially for us vagina owners.



Chances are, if you're reading this, you probably already listen to your body and try and follow a healthy lifestyle that suits you. If you experience other people poopooing your choices, feel free to paraphrase...


Maybe i'm just more in tune with my body and like keeping it happy.
I do only have this one to last me a lifetime, after all.
