As some of you may know I have been using Argan oil on my face with amazing results. My skin has honestly never looked better.
However I have been plagued by what I thought was tonsillitis including a sore throat and a swollen tongue. I am prone to tonsillitis and am anaemic so I never thought much about it but my swollen tongue was unusual and it did seem to be lasting an awful long time so I looked it up on google. To my dismay I have realised that it is an allergic reaction to the Argan oil. I am not allergic to nuts or anything but it must be this as I stopped using the oil and my sore throat and swollen tongue have gone.
I'm really upset as it was doing wonders for my skin.
I am anaemic just now and am on 600mg iron from the dr so I will try the oil again after I have the all clear on the anaemia.
Just thought you guys might want to know in case any of you have been experiencing the same reaction and like me have not put 2+2 together on the cause.
