I've been a big cereal eater most of my life. As I've gotten older, I've tried to eat a bit healthier so at one point I made a conscious effort to eat mostly plain Cheerios as my cereal choice. I'd occasionally buy boxes of different varieties of Cheerios as well and was constantly getting major diarrhea and throat congestion with tons of mucous. I couldn't pinpoint it for a while until I went on vacation and didn't have any Cheerios for a week and felt amazing. As soon as I got home and had breakfast the next day, I was sick all over again. Then it clicked, it was the Cheerios. I stopped eating them and have felt better since. Something is seriously wrong with what's in Cheerios. I now eat other foods with the exact ingredients of Cheerios all the time and feel great. I've also attempted to try Cheerios again just to "check" and I get insanely sick all over again. I won't be trying Cheerios anymore. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Congestion, Other
