food for thought

While none of us feign to be doctors, each of us at Match-Up certainly have our own opinions about health.

An interesting article appeared earlier this week on MSN: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32762148/ns/health-diet_and_nutrition/


Our staff is graced with an assortment of allergies-- thus far Jess is allergic to cockroaches (no wonder she moved to Minneapolis), Kristen says she's allergic to Mondays (who isn't these days, right?), Michelle is allergic to suntan lotion (not so conducive to Florida living), Nikole originally said that she was allergic to red things then recanted-- but she does have a strong aversion to leather and dry hands. Listing Adam's "can't eat" items would take all day-- let's just say he isn't too pleased that several of his favorite foods are listed on there (not Diet Mt. Dew, thankfully).

Anyways, hopefully the article will enlighten everyone about the difference between a food allergy and food intolerance. Happy Friday the 13th!
