beatakf Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 I am on week 3 on whole30 and everything is going great except I noticed my seasonal allergies are a lot worse. I have to double up on my allergy medicine. It's mostly lots of mucus and congestion, not itchy eyes I normally deal with. Any idea what is causing this? the only thing I am eating more off than before is coconut oil and plantains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators ladyshanny Posted May 10, 2017 Administrators Share Posted May 10, 2017 Did you try googling "Coconut oil allergy symptoms"? I just did and learned that coconut allergies can cause: Airway symptoms including wheezing, coughing, or a runny nose. I then googled "Plantain allergy symptoms" and learned that plantain allergies can cause: Nasal Congestion. Sinus. Headaches. Sneezing. You might wish to cut these items out and see if your symptoms improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beatakf Posted May 10, 2017 Author Share Posted May 10, 2017 I know I can't have coconut milk you buy in the fridge section, it gives me horrible stomach problems, I don't know why I thought that I would be ok with coconut oil. I will eliminate it from my diet and see if it gets better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
