new foods to eat, new foods to avoid

If this blog is going to be at all useful, I really should be contributing to it consistently. Ah well. It’s a bit of a navel-gazing exercise anyway, unless other people find it and decide to read it … and it helps them in some way to figure out what’s going on with their bodies as well.

So. Some movement in the “what’s in/what’s out” theme.

Back In (In Moderation):

Turkey (lean ground and/or bacon form)
Pork (bacon form)

Out:

Peanuts (I can eat 3 or 4 maybe and then I start scratching; more than that and I have that nauseous reaction)
Cauliflower (suspected — bad gas & heartburn reaction)
Pumpkin Seeds (suspected — bad night after eating them)

Some other notes. If you are using Gatorade to settle your stomach and you have ingredient issues, you need to know that the American formulation is quite different (at least on the label) from the Canadian formulation. I’m not sure whether the ingredients themselves are that different or whether it’s a matter of how specific ingredients are labeled between the two countries.
