A new way to look at allergies…
Most people look at their self-diagnosed or allergy tests as something that is genetic or otherwise unavoidable. Once you have them, you’re stuck with them.
Of course, this isn’t true at all, but I’ll get to that in a minute.
Allergies are quite simply a lack of resonance between the substance (food or environmental) and your body’s ability to align with it or assimilate it appropriately.
Usually, it’s an inability for you to completely digest a food, or a lack of detoxification infrastructure to get rid of any contaminants that don’t resonate with your being. When neither of these things happen, unpleasant symptoms or reactions are generated (like inflammation) to neutralize the “offender”.
Although this is a natural process (like a fever), it can feel like your body is making your life miserable, when in fact it’s trying to protect you and show you there is a problem. Pain is a powerful signal, that can help us adjust our behaviours.
Now, many people will claim that their allergies come and go. They might flare up in winter and go away in the summer. Or they may rise up in the spring, and go away after natural environmental factors die down.
The reality is, this is simply a cycle or exacerbation and retreat. The allergies have NEVER gone away, which is why they keep coming back, often in a very predictable way. All that has happened is they have retreated when the trigger is removed, perhaps under the skin or deeper, and you don’t directly notice their consequences (rash, pain, etc), and they get exacerbated when the triggers come back.
Think of it like momentarily putting a wet blanket over a fire…the heat (inflammation) will die down, but the embers remain, waiting to be triggered by the next dry tinder or gas you throw on them.
This won’t stop, until you fully extinguish the fire (infection). This is obvious by having to eat a very specific way or risk flare up of the allergies or any condition, which shows that the underlying source has NOT been removed.
This is common because the industry has focused on testing for allergies and having the client remove the offensive threats, which does little in actually removing the SOURCE of the threat, so the threat lingers and continues to corrupt your long-term health.
But if you actually learn how to harness HEALING eating (different from CLEAN eating) and supplementation, and other holistic practices, you can CLEAR the infection that is likely causing your allergies and be done with it for good.
When this happens, you’ll discover a whole new level of health, and you’ll be as happy as a clam. 🙂
