Hmmm... I must have missed this thread or it was going on under another

heading, so not sure what I have to say has been covered or not.

 

There is natural latex in shea butter. If someone has an allergy to latex

it is very possible they could have a reaction to shea butter. But I have

never heard of a person with nut allergies having a reaction to it.
