  • CORN Allergies
    Yoon Nofsinger, M.D. Tampa ENT Associates, 3450 E. Fletcher Ave, Tampa, FL 33613 Phone (813) 972-3353, Fax (813) 978 3667 CORN CORN Allergies The standard way of diagnosing food allergies is eliminating suspected foods from the diet for several weeks. If the symptoms ease, foods are reintroduced individually on a rotary diversified diet schedule. This process is very difficult, but the results are well worth it. In most cases, the allergic food may be reintroduced into the diet successfully using the rotary diversified diet. To begin your elimination diet, corn must be avoided in all forms. THREE FORMS OF CORN: 1. Fresh Corn – canned, frozen, roasting ear, fritters, succotash. 2. Dried Corn – corn flour, corn meal, cornstarch, grits hominy, parched corn, popcorn. 3. Refined Corn- corn flakes, corn oil, corn sugars, corn syrups, glucose, dextrose. MODES OF EXPOSURE Inhalant exposure: a. Fumes from cooking corn. b. Ironing starched clothes. c. Body powders and bath powders. Contact exposure: a. Starched clothing. b. Corn adhesives. Ingestant exposure: a. Corn products. b. Foods containing corn products. ALTERNATIVES TO CORN Corn-free cooking can be accomplished by using only fresh, non-packaged fruits, vegetables, meats or the use of home-canned foods where only beet or cane sugar have been used. Wesson Oil (soy), Kraft Cottonseed Oil, olive oil, pure safflower oil, butter, or pork lard may be used as cooking oils. Water packed foods may be used. Avoid powdered milk. Use bottled milk instead. Arrowroot may be substituted in equal parts in recipes calling for cornstarch. Yoon Nofsinger, M.D. Tampa ENT Associates, 3450 E.
