i went to a homeopathic doctor, because I started swelling up when i was introduced to cold temprature, eg cold pop, snow, ice, water, etc.etc.
the part of my body that is exposed would swell up and hives would come.
so she does tests on me and it comes to be that my kidneys are 50% under more stress then a normal kidney, my liver is 30%.
this is because i ate to much protien, i bulked up real quick in less then a year
i went from 120 lbs to 160 lbs in 6 months
all from working out twice a day, eating 5 - 10 eggs a day, and drinking protien shakes.
made my body sick, since all that is acidic, my kidneys coudnt take it and starte dsending that acid to my skin
which my skin tries to percipitate, but is unable too..
overall, i had to buy some powder, some drops that costed 600 dollars i had to take it everyday to help me get rid of my allergic reaction to the cold..
it didnt help alot.. i still have the allergic reaction, thats probably because i stopped taking the medicine i bought
just a word of advice, be careful how you eat
