Looking at Daily Digest saw a post of interest to do with having "itchy shins". Because I've begun noticing intermittent, short times of unexplained "itchy abdomen", I decided to try out the Google doc and found what I suspected that some foods and food groups can cause allergic reactions for some. These 2 sites provided more information and I will start the elimination of those specific foods that may be causing my periodic topical itchy skin: : https://www.livestrong.com/article/455116-what-kind-of-foods-can-cause-body-itching/
and https://www.powerofpositivity.com/skin-rash-foods-cause-and-calm/ . In my case, I had a large container of baby spinach delivered and to use more of it up before its going to waste, I began adding spinach to smoothies, stir frys, and casseroles. I'm pretty sure that is what caused this most recent irritation. Also glad to report that I've Never had an itchy reaction to sweets, just a craving for more, more, more! Smiles to all.

Ok feisty you found a place to help you, now can you find me a site to help with my aversion to the dungeon please. Driving home from an out of town bank, I got the courage to make a salad when I got home. I went in and thought some chicken would be good on that salad. Well I should know better than to think by now. But I FINALLY got the chicken finished and what a horrific experience it was. I started at 1pm it's after 4 & no salad.
i’m trying to figure out whether I should go ahead and try to throw a salad together or whether that would finish me off. maybe I should try fasting for the rest of the day. when I think of that vulgar C word starvation doesn’t seem quite so bad.

Hi,
Spinach is a common culprit for some kind of allergic reaction. My daughter always got an itchy throat and lips when she was growing up whenever she tried to eat cooked spinach. I couldn’t eat fresh clams without the same reaction. Today neither of us have these reactions. Maybe it’s just the fact that you ate too much spinach and it may not have happened if you just ate it occasionally. I don’t know but I hope the itchiness went away. Too bad as fresh spinach is so versatile.
I don’t know anyone personally who is allergic to sweets lol.
