Kelly K asked: I think (self-diagnosed) I have an allergy or intolerance for sulfites. It started off with hives, then progressed into my throat tightening a bit, now I have asthma like symptoms. I’ve been in perfect lung health my whole life, so I’m wondering if there’s a correlation between sulfites and this onset of asthma.
