Over sensitive gag reflex to some foods?!
Question: Over sensitive gag reflex to some foods?
I have a really annoying gag reflex. I can't swallow certain types of food such as cream, custard, porridge - this sort of texture. I can hardly swallow it and if I do I almost immediately throw it up. Why is this? It's a bit of a nuisance sometimes. It also sometimes when there disgusting smells around I feel like I'm going to throw up. What's wrong with me? Could I be allergic to some types of foods?
Answers:
It might just be that your body rejects the texture altogether, most likely because it remembers some prior experience involving the texture in which you got very sick.
