So I was absolutely famished this morning (seems to happen a lot on Fridays after a week of hard workouts) and so I had a nut snack (I think I ate too many, it was a handful). Anyhow, now my stomach hurts and I feel sick. Could it be the nuts? I haven't been eating them very regularly . . .

Hi V,


I've never heard of nuts making somebody sick, especially just a handful.

Did this happen right after your workout? Sometimes I feel ill if I eat anything or drink too much water after a workout...just a possibility...FEEL BETTER!

If you have a sensitivity to nuts they can cause abdominal distress. I am sensitive to thme. I don't get full blown anaphalitc shock, but I can get a bad headache and sometimes they can give me diarrhea. Maybe because you had them on an empty stomach they caused a reaction?
