What effect would eating Argo cornstarch have on a person's health?

I am 31 y FM. I have been eating starch for 13years. I started out eating at the begining of my pregnancy.

I found it to be the only thing I craved. 13 years later I find my self severely anemic and after 1 blood transfusion, I still find myself eating 1-2 boxes per week. This is not good for you.It is a eating disorder and you may need to seek help as a drug addict would do.

I have the same feening as a junkie. I will get up in the middle of the night 1-2am and get several boxes. I hide them from my children as they disapprove and it is embarrasing to tell friends.

I have just completed 6 weeks of iron infusion to increase my level of blood and iron. It doesn't help when I am sucking through a straw or eating with a spoon for breakfast, lunch and dinner,and midnight snack as URL2 makes me feel droggy and not wanting to do much but eat and sleep. Get your self checked.

I am learning the hard way. I have not had any for about 5 days and I am trying desparately to quick if not for myself for the sake my children who depend on me to live AGAPE Answer what is the health risks eating argo cornstarch. I Have to have a box now once a week.

I was a month or one box will last me for 2 months. I know woman who are expecting crave it,but I'm not expecting Answer It is amzing to see that other people have had the same problem as myself. I am a 24 year old female and started craving starch during my pregnancy with my son.

I ate like 2 boxes a day and eventually I was up to like 3 maybe 4. I gained so much weight (up to about 200lbs) and I was iron deficient and anemic. It made me feel lazy and miserable most of the time.

I havent touched a box of starch in almost 5 years...thank the Lord. I just said to myself I couldn't look in the mirror anymore and I was simply too young for this. What keeps me from picking it up again because my mother eats it regularly...is my driver's license picture.

I looked like total ham...I can't see myself ever going back to that. Unfortunately, it is an addiction...lol...I'm laughing because no one ever understood how it could be...but it is. I would throw my last box away as to say I am not eating it anymore and then get up in the middle of the night no matter the time or weather to go to the store to buy another one.

It was horrible. I really wish you luck...I know what you are going through Answer This condition is called Amylophagia. It has been associated with anemia (low iron levels in the blood).

Nothing done to excess is good for you. Talk to your doctor. There are treatments for this condition.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
