Recent food testing revealed a reaction to coconuts. I've known to avoid sodium lauryl sulfate, which is often derived from them, for years, as it causes canker sores inside my mouth. Once I cut it out, the sores virtually disappeared. Now, though, I've become conscious of how many different kind of *soaps* coconut and palm oil are in, including my hand soap, my shampoo, my shower soap, and most anti bacterial soaps. I've finally found a product that uses only saponified olive oil from Kiss My Face, which I'm trying now instead. When I think about all the SLS I've been exposed to in my life, it's not really *surprising* that I would have a reaction to it! I have to wonder if, after avoiding these products for six months or so, the "allergy" will go away.
