Food Allergy: I understand your concern
Let Wise Person within you ask about the first meal:
• Eating foods that upset the digestive system
• Allergies to certain foods
• Medications
• Use of Laxatives
“Intermittently rush for a bowel (2-3/week), after 1st meal, no blood, No anemia/weight loss” without abdominal pain are NOT indicative of cancer.
