Authors Esther Blum and Dr. Melina Jampolis Turn Up The Heat Plus Eating Well Magazine's, Nicci Micco, Discusses Food Allegies

On tonight's show, Nicci Micco, Senior Editor with Eating Well Magazine (One of Dr. Fitness and The Fat Guy's Favorite Magazines), joined us to discuss an article in the upcoming edition about food allergies. Nicci said that any food can cause an allergic reaction but 90% of the time one of the Big 8 Foods is the trigger...Do you want to know what those Big 8 foods are? I bet you do... They are: milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, soy, fish or shellfish. How's that for some good information. Eating Well magazine is a great resource for great information about food and eating well. I promise you that you will not find better photographs in any magazine, I don't care about the genre.
