I can remember a time when the only food allergy that I heard about was peanuts. Maybe this was not reality but I just don’t remember people being allergic to so many different types of food. Today I hear about every kind of allergy imaginable. Allergies to fruits, wheat, corn, soy, eggs, chocolate, dairy, tree nuts, beef and pork just to name just a few. The top eight allergens are actually milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, shell fish, soy and wheat. I am sad to say that my two children are allergic to all of these things in varying combinations.

This is extremely difficult to manage and I had to find a way to cater to both the Candida Diet and my children’s multiple food allergies. My initial thought was “Is there anything left for us to eat?” The Candida diet is very limiting in itself but omitting foods allowed on the diet due to allergy or sensitivity makes sticking to the diet even more challenging. Although challenging this has become a necessity for many. There is an established link between food allergies and Candida so I wanted to explore this a bit.

It is not clear if food allergies contribute to Candida or Candida contribute to food allergies but many people who have symptoms of candidiasis also have multiple food allergies and/or sensitivities. Allergies are immune responses to a substance the body regards as dangerous. So what causes the body to regard harmless foods as potentially harmful substances? It appears to be linked to the overburdening of the immune system which is in part caused by candidiasis, an overgrowth of yeast (Candida) in the intestinal system. Candida is innately a benign microorganism which makes up the microflora of the intestinal system.

Candida works along with “friendly” types of bacteria to remove waste and toxins from the body. The “friendly” bacteria keep the Candida at harmless levels and ensure the intestinal system is working efficiently. Unfortunately, due to external factors such as overuse of antibiotics, which kill the “friendly” bacteria and, an imbalance is created in the intestinal system. This is when the Candida begins to become an opportunistic microorganism causing seemingly unrelated health problems throughout the body. The Candida actually releases toxins which the immune system tries in vain to fight off. This whole cycle works hand in hand to create confusion in the body and often allergies and sensitivities to food somehow develop.

The Candida Diet seeks to restore balance to the intestinal system by cutting off the Candida’s food supply. The diet eliminates many foods, especially processed/sugary ones initially, that feed Candida. If food allergies and sensitivities are identified one must also refrain from eating those foods. However, as the body heals and the immune system becomes strong again many foods can be reintroduced. Although it is difficult to manage both the Candida Diet and multiple food allergies and sensitivities it can be done. I have created many recipes that cater to both and you can too.

When the liver becomes disabled it no longer is capable of performing its functions properly and as result we become sensitive from plastic chairs to flowers and grass.

If the bile ducts of the liver are clogged all sorts of issues can arise allergies being only one of them. Sometimes the bile duct is clogged with a sheep liver fluke – it actually lives in the bile duct. If enough are clogging the bile ducts and it spills over into the intestine then you will experience the worst case of allergies you could ever imagine.

The body, in some cases, can take care of theses culprits with its own resources. And when they leave the body they will come out in the bowel. You will see little black threads that are the eggs.
You can kill these flukes with a Rife Digital Zapper, (frequency generator) or the Zapper MHz. Also you must avoid food molds, and remove the dental work that has mercury in them. You also must do the parasite, kidney and liver cleanse.

If you have too many flukes present in the liver then the liver can’t do its job, which is to detoxify the chemicals and food taken into the body.

The natural chemicals in food need to be detoxified in addition to the toxins and other things we are exposed to.

There are other flukes in the liver, i.e., human liver fluke, less of a problem. However, anything that is lodged in the bile ducts, cholesterol, whatever it is will cause problems.

Dr. Clark says, “The bile duct system is a gigantic tree with lots of interconnecting branches. Remember how “stringy” liver can be when you buy it in the grocery store. These strings are bile ducts. When one is obstructed, others take over its job. But when a whole section of the liver gets obstructed and it can’t detoxify a whole set of chemicals you dare not get those chemicals into you again.”

And if you do get some chemicals or toxins in the system and the liver is not healthy enough to deal with it then they will spread throughout the body. They will find their way through to various organs including the brain. Now that they are in the brain they will attach and then you have an “allergic reaction”.

Even with the most extreme allergies – if you kill the sheep liver fluke and any other flukes residing in the liver then you will be allergy free.

You can resolve this issue of allergies reasonably easily. Use the parasite cleanse, and the zapper or a frequency generator such as a Rife machine. At the end of this article there will be links for information on the parasite cleanse and the zapper.

Solvents from environmental toxins are also residing in the body it is one of the things that allows the flukes to get into the liver.

So, make sure you remove all solvents, so you don’t continue to re-infect yourself and begin by eliminating propyl alcohol and benzene. It is the food processing that can put this into your system. So, in addition to the parasite cleanse and the zapping, go completely organic with your food and drink. Your food will taste better and you will feel better. It’s a little more money, but the lack of medical bills and allergy medication should make up for that.

Sinus infections affect millions of people each year. The symptoms of a sinus infection include headaches, nasal congestion, and tenderness and swelling around your eyes, nose, and cheeks. These symptoms can be very painful and uncomfortable, and can sometimes make it difficult to function. Luckily, there is medicine for sinus infections that can help treat and cure your sinus condition.

Prescription Medication

If your sinuses are making you suffer, the best thing to do is to consult your physician. There are a wide variety of prescription drugs available for sinus relief, including nasal sprays and decongestants.

Nasal sprays can be either saline sprays or nasal corticosteroids. A saline spray is used throughout the day to rinse nasal cavities, while a corticosteroid spray such as Flonase or Nasonex, specifically targets inflammation.

Doctors will also frequently recommend decongestants for sinus relief. There are many different types of decongestants that can either be prescribed or bought over-the-counter. You will want to check with a doctor to see which one is right for you.

Over-the-Counter Medications

There is medicine for sinus symptoms that can be bought over-the-counter without a prescription, but you will want to see a doctor first to see if these medications will help your particular type of sinus infection. The types of sinus medications that are available over-the-counter include several types of decongestants and pain medication.

Doctors will sometimes recommend you take certain painkillers such as aspirin or ibuprofen to reduce some of the pain of sinus infection symptoms. Both of these pain medications can be bought easily over-the-counter, but they often only temporarily relieve your symptoms, so they should not be the only drugs you use.

Why Not Antibiotics?

Many people expect to be prescribed antibiotics for their sinus infections, but in reality antibiotics are rarely used as a medicine for sinus relief. This is because in most cases, sinus problems are viral or fungal infections, and antibiotics only help with bacterial infections.

There are some cases of bacterial sinus infections, but even in these cases antibiotics are rarely used. Bacterial sinus infections will normally clear by themselves after a few days, without medication. Generally antibiotics are only used for severe, chronic bacterial sinus infections.

If you are prescribed an antibiotic, it will most likely be amoxicillin or doxycycline. Whatever antibiotic you are prescribed, make sure to take the full dose. If you are given enough pills for ten days, don’t just stop taking them after three days, even if your symptoms seem to have gone away. Antibiotics are meant to kill the bacteria causing the infection, not just relieve your symptoms the way nasal sprays and decongestants do. If you stop taking the pills after your symptoms have gone, the bacteria may not be dead yet and so your symptoms will likely return.

Taking medicine for sinus relief is not for everyone. Some people are able to rid themselves of their symptoms through simple home remedies or natural products. If your sinuses do not seem to respond to anything you try, however, you might want to consider seeing a doctor to go over your medication options.

Among various types of skin allergies, allergy by peanut is very dangerous as it can cause death. Currently in US, almost 1.1 percent of the population suffers from allergy by peanut. Second to peanuts, allergy causing foods are eggs, fishes, and tree nuts.

Symptoms Of Peanut Allergy

- Respiratory problem, in which the person faces difficulty in breathing.
- Gastrointestinal problem such as indigestion or stomach cramps
- Swelling
- In sever cases, person has anaphylactic shock caused due to increased levels of histamine in blood. Without timely intervention, this can lead to heart failure or even death.
- Collapse of body blood circulation to organs
- Excessive sweating due to increased histamine levels

Treatment For Peanut Allergy

There are no particular treatments available as of now. Treatments vary in accordance with severity of the occasion and most of the cures available only reduces or controls the symptoms and not eradicate it permanently. Here are some of the treatments:

- Avoid having foods containing peanut or any of its processed items. Some manufacturing companies use peanuts as an adulterant. Therefore, children allergic to peanuts should be kept away for sure. When purchasing processed and packaged items, check the printed contents. Similarly, almost all major airlines provide peanut snack in flight- strictly avoid them.

- Epinephrine or adrenaline injections help to minimize the effect of anaphylactic shock. The injection reverses the anaphylactic reaction by increasing heart rate, increasing blood flow, and relaxing the body muscles.

- Peanut allergy happens because the stomach is sensitive to it. Hence, in a new way to deal with this allergy, researches are being carried out to desensitize people of peanuts by feeding them small doses over a period of time. Right now, its benefits are not clearly explicit but some medical centers do use it. Way of administering it includes injections and oral.

Antihistamines have been used to help allergy sufferers for years. Most people don’t really understand Antihistamines or how they work. First it’s important to take a closer look at allergies and exactly what effect they have on the body.

Allergies are the result of your body having a bad reaction to an outside substance. These substances are typical allergens, such as pollen, dog or cat dander, dust, or a certain type of food. You’re body reacts by attacking them like they would any type of germ. This is done my releasing a substance called histamine. The byproduct of histamine is typical allergy symptoms like sneezing, watery eyes, rashes or hives.

Antihistamines work by fighting the histamine that’s produced by the body. In essence it protects the body from itself! More specifically it builds a protective wall around the cells of the effective area. Once the cells are protected, there’s nowhere for the histamine to take hold.

Like most medication, antihistamines historically has some negative side effects, the most notable being drowsiness. In the past many people would choose to deal with their allergy symptoms other then taking medication. What’s the point if you’re so tired you can’t complete your day to day tasks?

The good news is recently newer antihistamines have become available that fights histamine without causing drowsiness. Of these Claritin and Allegra are the 2 most popular. In the beginning they were only available by prescription, however that has recently changed. Now they’re both available over-the-counter. They have been a proven treatment for all types of allergies, with minimal side effects.
