Yes, I have been eating cornstarch for sometime now. I am worried about what it is doing to my body. I started eating cornstarch by the box with my third and forth child. My husband caught me liking the baby powder and introduced me to the cornstarch instead. He told me that it was healthier to consume and that it was actually food. Recently I went to the doctor and I was told that my iron was low so I am now taking iron pills for supplement and I haven't eaten cornstarch in about 5 to 6 months. However, I am still concerned about the negative effects, if any, from eating so much of the cornstarch and what can I do to get it out of my system.
