Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 Interesting . . . I had never heard that vegetarians could be less attractive to biting insects. Maybe there is some truth to it . . . My husband and I have been lacto ovo vegetarians for 30 years. We eat some dairy. I get some mosquito bites but not many. If sitting outdoors with a group of people that are constantly getting bitten, they seem to bite me least. I also don’t seem to have problems with reactions to insect bites. My husband and daughters (22, 20, 11 and veg.) don’t seem to have much of a problem either. In our family, they bother me least . . . I figured they didn’t like my bad blood. , MI, dx 5/04 wbc at 40K now at 640K, W & W, stage 3, normal FISH, high cd38, high b2m, unmutated, zap 70+, feeling good.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 Hi , I have this problem with insect bites, at the minute I have a flea bite which I get most years as I have a female cat. I have bought a flea trap and treated her for fleas.the only thing is to use insect repellent and treat with insect bite cream. you can get natural creams if you search the Internet. was looking at this a year or to ago now.! I may have something about it but I will have to look it up. I have heard that we have sweet blood, that is maybe high sugar in our blood. not sure if this is why we get bites. Angel.
