sherronh Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Hi im on day 30 and for the most part I feel great. Today randomly im havng a little back pain im wondering if that could be from the handful of mixed nuts that I had last night (I really limited my nuts during my journey since they are a food without breaks for me). Has anyone else experienced this with nuts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators ladyshanny Posted December 30, 2014 Administrators Share Posted December 30, 2014 Hmmm...have you ever experienced that when eating nuts previously? I'm not sure I've ever heard of that reaction to nuts although that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Think back to the last 3-7 days and things you've done including push/pull motions and lifting (maybe lifting a heavy turkey or ham out of the oven or dragging a Christmas tree to the curb?). Often when we get structural pain it shows up days later than the event that caused it. In any case, to ease the pain, apply ice on for 10 minutes, off for 10 and on for 10 again. Too long and the ice acts like an injury causing excess inflammation. Heat will also bring blood to the area causing excess inflammation and should be avoided during an acute injury (one that has just flared up).

Renee Lee Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 yep, this is definitely possible. nuts can be inflammatory for some folks. I know more people that have had gut reactions to nuts than i do folks with joint/muscular issues...but this isn't out of the realm of possibility.
