Call to Action!

This is my informal call to action! Of what did you say, your health! I am so sick and tired of being sick and tired. At that I am tired of seeing others sick and tired!  I have figured out how this healthcare thing should have gone from birth, see if this sounds like anyone’s life you know.

From birth if the child has any signs and symptoms of allergies, ie… constant runny nose, congestion, ear infections, respiratory infections, asthmatic conditions-shortness of breath or the need for nebulization, coughing, just as a basic list. The child should be food allergy tested immediately, but what do most doctors do? They tell you to get some cough syrup for the cough and an antihistamine, for what is the antihistamine needed? The allergy symptom they are ignoring. What happens next is that over time your body becomes extremely inflamed and you react to a lot of things, grass, AC, you name it. The body is so irritated that everything makes it mad. This then leads to hormonal upsets, which can cause you to store fat instead of loosing it because your body is now sick and confused.

So, yes I am saying if you have asthma, there is an extremely high probability that you have a food allergy your doctor chose to ignore.  What’s the big deal you ask, the albuterol works just fine. While it may appear to work just fine, each time your arteries tighten as a result of your food allergy causing widespread panic throughout your body. You cause damage to your heart. Over time, your heart will weaken and I’m sure you can see where I am going.

Why did I go right to food allergies, because almost all of your immune system is in your gut. Your gut mostly comes in contact with food. It should be the most obvious place to look for problems. The longer this goes unchecked the more food allergies it creates and the bigger your problem gets as well.

Inflammation in the gut is the center of all trouble. It’s most often called IBS, but means in short, you have something your eating that you are allergic to.  You cannot heal unless it is gone from your diet, so you can eat all the yogurt, swallow all the probiotics, take all the supplements you want, but until you stop eating that food, symptoms will not leave.

What can you do, if you are in a state that allows you to do independent labs, there are companies that allow you to order tests to check for these things. Then you find one that you can go to  and get tested. If not you can do what I did and catch the main culprits, you can do an elimination diet. Which is eliminating one food from your diet on a weekly basis taking it out for a few days or a week and adding it back in to see if your body reacts differently. All I ask is that you don’t ignore it. It is the key to having a full and productive life. I am here to help if you need me.
