Sea Salt Allergy
A MyFoodAllergyTeam Member asked a question đź’­

Does anybody get a watery, foamy mouth when you eat sea salt? I get violently sick (sweaty, stomach pain, nausea) when I consume sea salt, but doctors won’t listen to me. Can you use an epi pen? It feels like some sort of anaphylaxis.

Allergic to epinephrine
