There is an heightened awareness that more folks have an allergic reaction to corn. Many retail food companies are choosing to list corn as an ingredient source on labels like in place of modified food starch you will now see modified corn starch. Yet it is not considered as one of the top eight… wheat, dairy, soy, peanut, tree nut, shellfish, fish and egg. Canada added mustard to this list of eight this year. Similar to these top eight allergies, corn allergy can manifest in hives and severe allergic reactions, like headaches and stomachaches. The true cure for a food allergy is to avoid the food. Due diligence, read food labels, corn sources are hidden in many ingredients.
