Allergies

 Allergies

Allergies are a result of the response to many different situations. They can be triggered by food, pollen, environmental chemicals, dander, dust, insect bites, to name just a few and can affect the following:

• Respiration - wheezing, laboured breathing
• Mouth - swelling of the lips or tongue, itching lips
• Digestive tract - diarrhea, vomiting, cramps
• Skin - rashes, dermatitis
• Nose - sneezing, congestion, bloody nose

Food Allergies

Food allergies are different from food intolerances. Food allergies involve an immune system reaction, whereas food intolerances involve gastrointestinal reaction and are far more common.

For example, peanuts often produce a lifelong allergy due to peanut proteins being targeted by immune system antibodies as foreign invaders. In contrast, intolerance of pasteurized cow milk that causes cramping and diarrhea is due to the inability to digest lactose (milk sugar) because of a lack of the enzyme lactase.

Food allergies are often associated with the consumption of peanuts, shellfish, nuts, wheat, cow's milk, eggs, and soy. Infants and children are far more prone to have food allergies than adults, due to the immaturity of their immune and digestive systems.

A thorough intestinal cleansing is one of the best ways to combat most allergies. Start with ICP, Comfortone, Essentialzyme, JuvaTone and Life5.

Hay Fever (Allergic Rhinitis)

Hay fever is an allergic reaction triggered by airborne allergens (pollens, animal hair, feathers, dust mites etc) that cause the release of histamines and subsequent inflammation of nasal passage and sinus related areas. A more serious form of respiratory allergy is asthma, which menifests in the chest and lungs.

Symptoms : Inflammation of nasal passages, sinuses, and eyelids that cause sneezing, runny nose, wheezing, and watery and red itchy eyes.
