I have food allergies and have a very strict diet.

Recently I had some issues with dry scalp, doctors weren’t helpful to diagnose the root cause, and I traced it to non organic carrots that removed or replaced by organic ones caused the symptoms to return.

I can’t buy cheap bulk carrots, but organic ones are fine.

This sounds insane but I’m starting to think the food supply isn’t as safe as we think.




Very interesting, how did you figure out carrots were the issue?


Substitution.

Changed to organic/no carrots, symptoms went away, ate cheap carrots again, boom issues returned.
