Started eating cornstarch baby powder nd today my heart hurt don't know why i think i hve pica

Pica ?: If you develop a pattern of eating cornstarch baby powder that would warrant medical evaluation. Sometimes people develop pica in response to nutritional deficiciencies. Pica sometimes requires psychotherapy. I wouldn't consider eating cornstarch baby powder once a pattern. I do recommend that you stop eating it . Take care.
