In the traditional western medical model, we have been taught to believe that asthma and allergies are conditions that we will have for life. The best we can do is “manage” allergies by minimizing our exposure to mold, dust, certain foods, pollens, etc, and take medicines that suppress our immune response. What I have found out through my work with Nutrition Response Testing, is that almost all of these allergies have a root cause that is something other than a reaction to an “allergen”…
The root cause can vary from person to person. Many times, it is a toxic chemical or heavy metal that has attached itself to receptor sites in the body, and the body is creating an immune response against it. On top of this there can be unresolved viruses, yeasts, or bacteria in the system, which wage low level warfare on the immune system.
This is not to say that certain “allergens” do not aggravate these conditions. Mold and dust do provoke the immune system further, and certain foods and pollens can feed the bacteria or viruses that are creating the problem. But at its root, most “allergies” are not in fact autoimmune problems, but the body’s natural response against pathogenic or chemical challenges already within it. NRT is one way to identify these stressors, and determine how to eliminate them.
A mixture of acupuncture, biomagnetics, and herbs can solve most allergy cases. Generally, the approach is to kill off the pathogen or drain the chemical slowly, while managing histamine levels so that allergy symptoms stay at a minimal during that time period. Depending on the chronicity of the allergy, the process usually takes 1-4 months. After that, it is just a matter of keeping the immune system healthy and clear. Say good bye to inhalers, steroid pills, and other immune suppressants, and hello to an allergy -free body!
