Comment of the Week
"Speaking of eternities from your Sunday with Sisson, perhaps they do exist. But perhaps it's the flip of what we feel to be true. The future and the past feel eternal but are finite, while the present feels fleeting but is eternal. Our whole lives is spent living in the eternal present."

-Well said, Aaron.

Hi everyone, this week we're excited to have board-certified Health & Wellness Coach, Chloé Maleski here to answer your questions. She'll be talking about the validity of food intolerances, how to make the first few weeks of keto more manageable, and why genetics don't have to dictate your health. Got a question for our coaches? Drop it in the comments below or over in the Mark's Daily Apple Facebook group.   Vlad asked: "I think I might have an almond/nut allergy or intolerance. When I unknowingly eat products that might have almond flour, 24-48 hours later I experience what feels like a head cold (runny nose, cottonmouth, drowsy, fatigue) for a few days along with some bad gas. Does this even exist? Is it common?" From a Primal point-of-view, nuts can be a great addition to most diets. Nuts are satisfying, satiating, and have healthy fats, decent protein, and nominal carbs. If you can get past the phytic acid issue (I know I can), they're a near-perfect food — except for folks with a nut allergy or intolerance. Which sounds like what you might be dealing with. According to this research, 1.1% of the general population (that's about 3 million Americans) have a tree nut or peanut allergy. And yes, peanuts are more accurately a legume, but that's not the point. The point is this, most people have been taught to completely disregard any and all physical, mental, and emotional symptoms they're experiencing. They're so busy operating on autopilot (and likely having some of the symptoms below), trying to do what's "right" versus noticing what's right for them. Common food intolerance symptoms include: Bloating Stomach pain Gas Diarrhea Migraines Headaches Brain fog Runny nose Fatigue Common food allergy symptoms include: Hives Swelling Congestion Difficulty swallowing Itchy or tingly mouth Shortness of breath Nausea or vomiting Anaphylaxis (which is potentially life-threatening) Instead of tuning into these symptoms, most people flat out ignore what's going on, or chalk them up to something else. Let this be your friendly health coach reminder that no one knows your body better than you do. Not your primary care doc. Not your spouse. Not even the most seasoned health coaches. Also, and I know this one can be tough to hear, not all dietary approaches are right for all people. This is a huge block for people who are following their diet du jour, faithfully keeping tabs on which foods are "good" and which are "bad" and having no clue why they still feel awful. You have a unique metabolic expression. Meaning, what works for someone else might not work for you. And vice versa. If I were you, I would eliminate almonds, almond flour, and anything made from them for 2-3 weeks, including almond milk, protein bars, and paleo cakes and cookies. (Just FYI, if you have an actual nut allergy, I would eliminate those foods for good.) After 2 or 3 weeks are up, reintroduce your favorite almond-based products. And not just a bite … Continue reading "Ask a Health Coach: Intolerances, Electrolytes, and Epigenetics"
