Grover's Disease: What works to help find relief?

In regard to the cilantro: Has anyone ever had a negative reaction to it? Keep in mind, smoothies are fairly new to me, so it might just be my body having a reaction to the sudden boost in fruit and vegetables, but every time I drink a smoothie, I feel very fatigued afterward. Like something with my body just isn’t right and this seems to persist throughout the day. I know that the sugar could possibly make my blood sugar spike, but I regularly have drinks or foods that have way more sugar than the frozen fruits and vegetables that I put into my smoothie. Which has me wondering if maybe the cilantro is doing something funny?

I researched and did find some negative affects that can occur, but am curious if anyone else has experienced this. I seriously doubt it's fruits and vegetables. While my intake of both has obviously increased with my smoothies, it's not like my body has been void of those prior. Cilantro is really the only strange thing I've introduced into my diet - especially in such a large quantity (half-bunch).

Hello @ccamargo82

Interesting question about Cilantro.

I did find some information about the side effects of this from a reliable website healthline.com. Here is the link, https://www.healthline.com/health/cilantro-allergy.

You do not mention what type of problems you are having that might be related to the use of such a large quantity of cilantro. Have you considered using less cilantro in your smoothies to see if this helps?

I look forward to hearing from you again. Will you post an update when it is convenient for you?

Cilantro is often used by herbalists for detoxifying the body of accumulated heavy metals, and any detox process can cause your body to have a temporary bad reaction. Perhaps that is what is going on with you? If you do an internet search for "cilantro for detox", you will come up with tons of info if you want to check out this possibility. Good luck!
