Help, I'm allergic to nuts...
I was wondering what a good substitute for the essential fats in nuts and seeds would be?! I am very allergic to some nuts and some seeds. I am so upset by this as I love nuts & seeds and found they were a great snack to munch on. I have had a few very severe reactions and ended up in A&E! I avoid all of varieties now just incase!
I am very health conscious and don't want to miss out on all the nutritional benefits nuts and seeds provide. I also suffer from eczema and have found my skin very dry and dull since having to give up my fave snacks!! Please help!
