Cinnamon

 

Hubby made glazed carrots, which included cinnamon, nutmeg, and honey.
Both times I tried it, it caused extreme throat irritation and coughing.
  I'm guessing it was the cinnamon, but have no proof. Cinnamon in
anything else hasn't bothered me. Google hasn't produced anything thus
far.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Thanks.  Marsha

 




    Just curious: Why do you suspect the cinammon? Does the recipe
contain any other ingredients that do not commonly occur in your diet?

and see what happens.  Thanks.

 


I had a reaction once to an apple pie that seemed like the cinnamon
was very strong. I took one bite, and my throat burned as well as up
into my nose. It eased up a bit when I ate some of the whipped cream
to cool it. It got better when I used my asthma inhaler.

I have only had that reaction one other  time. It was in reaction to
broccoli beef. I have eaten it plenty of times before that and after.
I have no idea why I reacted to it.

I do have acid reflux problems after eating cinnamon, so I know I
can't eat too much of it at one time.

I have to avoid cinnamon.  It bothers me every time, usually causing
coughing and sneezing and stomach pain.
