Discover the root of your Allergies Today

You don’t realize it yet but in the next two minutes you’re going to learn something your doctors were never trained about. What are allergies? Allergies are abnormal or inefficient immune system response to something that your body incorrectly believes to be harmful to your system. Asthma can often be an allergic reaction in the body too. Why does your body react the way it does? What is an abnormal or inefficient immune response?

First, what are some common causes of Allergies? The most common causes are; mold, dust, pollen, dander, and chemicals. Most of us know all of these, you have seen the commercials on TV of people sneezing with their pets or walking outside and sneezing. There is nothing really new there. But there are two causes of allergies you may not know about. Two uncommon but becoming more and more prevalent causes of allergic responses are; Teflon (PFOA or C8) and Antibiotics.

Studies have begun to show Teflon is producing allergen-specific antibodies leading to restriction of airways. Teflon is a known carcinogen with links being made to birth defects and infertility. Teflon is not just on your cooking pans, watch out for your microwave popcorn bags, they are coated in Teflon and so is your popped popcorn when it is done. The second uncommon cause, Antibiotics leads us to answer the questions above. What is an abnormal or inefficient immune response and why does your body react the way it does?

Antibiotics kill both beneficial and non-beneficial flora in your intestines. Why should that matter? Well, 80% to 90% of your immune cells are located in you lower intestines. If you kill the bacteria (flora) that digest your food then you “clog” up your intestines. Basically what that means is that the walls of you large intestines are caked with waste material and nothing can function as it is supposed to. Another way to say it is, internally your body is unable to breathe.

So if you are tired of taking the over the counter drugs that are poisoning your body and adding to a quicker more painful death, what can you do? Most people have given up to a life of pain and discomfort. You don’t have to. You can discover the roots of your allergies and take control today!

Start with diet. You are what you eat still holds true today as it did in the past. Begin with an anti-inflammatory diet. That’s a diet low in simple carbohydrates (breads, pastas, “food” from a box), high in complex carbohydrates (vegetables), high in protein, and low in grains for a start. Increase your water (approx. ½ your body weight in oz. per day). Next look at your home environment. Home recommendations are; Low humidity, Clean (non toxic cleaners), good ventilation, keep it cool (70 Deg. F). Also taking a bath or shower before bed to rinse the dust and pollen off your body so you don’t bring it to bed does wonders for your sleep. It also gives your body a break for eight hours in an allergy free zone.

Now look to supplementation. Supplementing the basic nutrients and adding to it alfalfa and protein. Your supplements should come from an organic whole food base that are pharmaceutical grade and ph released if possible. A good efficient air purifier in the home and bedroom are essential for those with chronic conditions. After these basic changes look to alternative therapies. Some alternative therapies could be but are not limited to Acupuncture, Ayurvedic Medicine, and EFT to name just a few.

Think back to the beginning of this article and maybe to a time when you were allergy free. What is one thing that you have learned here that you can take away and make a change in your life with? Is it the bath or the diet changes? Maybe the supplementation, I bet you didn’t think protein affected allergies. Take one item from what you hve read and make the change for at least two weeks and see what happens. If you need support in making that change, find a family member or friend to support you.
