A uni mate was super allergic to eggs. He had a mild reaction when using a pot that another flatmate had boiled eggs in. Now it'd only had a 'student flat' wash, but all of us were tripping out about the level of sensitivity.
During teacher training there was one (quite odd) little dude in my class with severe allergies. There were several epipens around the school and we got clear instructions on how to use them. There were a few other kids with known allergies but he was the only one where it could be life/death.
We are introducing food to our bubs (7 months) one at a time. Then starting to give her blends of stuff she's already tried. That's the suggested approach from our Plunket nurse. Seems to be working ok so far. Is it wrong that I sent a pic of bubs gnawing on a steak to my vegan sister?? ha ha

My mate died of anaphylactic shock , as he lay there choking he kept trying to give me his epipen , he was very insistent that it be passed on to me and it seemed a bit rude not to take it. It was a bit hard to understand him of course what with his throat swollen shut but every time I open the drawer and see it there I think of him.

@booboo This issue has arisen as a direct result of a generation who think they know better how to raise humans than the grand total of human history. The easiest, and now preferred way, to limit allergies is early exposure.
See! I knew it! (Must have read it somewhere ... )

Get your popcorn and read this response from a gynaecologist who was targeted by Gwyneth Paltrow for suggesting that some of her GOOP advice was rubbish:
GOOP’s misogynistic, mansplaining hit job
GOOP and Gwyneth Paltrow have a case of GOOPitis, which according to Dr. Steve Gundry is due to my potty mouthed facts. Or tomato skins. Or something. I find it all very disjointed, inadequately re…

Loved this line (dropped in out of the blue
"Addressing GOOP errors like this one is not disrespecting women it’s pointing out the fucking truth."

People are fucking dumb:
'she has heard clients suggest the inoculations could give their pups autism'

What the actual fuck?
he editors at GOOP find me “strangely confident” in my “assertion that putting a crystal in your vagina for pelvic-floor strengthening exercises would put you in danger of getting Toxic Shock Syndrome—even though there is no study/case/report which links the two.” I am not strangely confident about vaginal health, I am appropriately confident because I am the expert. I did 4 years of medical school, a 5 year OB/GYN residency, a 1 year fellowship in infectious diseases, I am board certified in OB/GYN in 2 countries, I am board certified by the American Board of Pain Medicine and the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation in Pain Medicine and I am appropriately styled Dr. Jen Gunter MD, FRCS(C), FACOG, DABPM, ABPM (pain). A woman with no medical training who tells women to walk around with a jade egg in their vaginas all day, a jade egg that they can recharge with the energy of the moon no less, is the strangely confident one.re -

Oh FFS. Apparently under Prop 65 simply an allegation that coffee contains a trace of a cancer-causing chemical is enough to force coffee sellers to post cancer warnings. 7-Eleven has already settled. A pox on do-gooders everywhere.

Just saw this when viewing the latest post. I had the displeasure of viewing part of this tripe a few months back. It starts off innocently enough and then goes into full on anti everything but vegan mode. It defies belief that The Red Pill was banned from Netflix but this shit (which is potentially far far more harmful) is considered ok. In one part they even had a guy saying promoting milk is racist.
As for chiropractors. Doesn't that profession have a really dodgy history?

Red Pill is on Amazon tv if you haven’t seen it yet.
Read the first link I posted, it gives you a great breakdown of Chiro history. It’s bullshit, also it’s dangerous bullshit . And expensive bullshit too.
