Food Allergies Treatment

Question by sunshineonmyshoulder: How do you CLEANSE your insides? Fasting? Certain Foods?
Today I went with out food until 5pm. Then I sauted some carrots, green beans, onion, and portabella mushrooms in a little olive oil. I used some salt, pepper, garlic pepper and curry spice. I just want to give my body a break from all the eating I normally do and let it clean itself and rest. Ok, so any suggestions on how to give the body a cleansing?

(I’m vegan – so no meat and no dairy, eggs or wheat because of allergies and animal cruelty.)

I dont cleanse my insides…I kind of figure they are self cleansing especially if you eat lots of veggies. Make sure you drink your water!

Question by lstone4132: Wheat/gluten free foods?
I am having a friend over and she is allergic to wheat and gluten. I am trying to figure out something we can have for dinner and maybe as a desert so I was wondering if you could list some good foods/meal ideas that I could choose from as options as I have no idea what she can eat because I don’t have this allergy. Any help is appreciated

There are a bunch of options. Check with your local grocery store to see what kind of gluten-free dinners/cooking options they have before you settle on a dinner choice.

Question by Waiting4Forever: Do you think certain foods should be banned because a child has an allergy to it?
LIke, if a child is deathly allergic to peanuts… Should peanuts be banned from the school? What about if your child is deathly allergic to wheat? Milk?

I think that if you ban [insert allergy] to protect children who are deathly allergic to it, then you should ban [insert different allergy] to protect the kids who are deathly allergic to it. I don’t think it is fair to protect kids who are deathly allergic to [insert allergy] but not protect the kids who are deathly allergic to [insert allergy].

Hypothetical situation: Your school bans peanuts because one child has a deathly allergic reaction to it. However, your child has a deathly allergic reaction to [insert different allergy] but the school refuses to ban it. Do you think it is fair to protect one child but not the other?

What about for elementary? Middle school? High School?

It’s not right for a school to ban an allergy for one kid, and not do it for another kid with a different allergy. I’d be pretty pissed off.
My son doesn’t have any allergies thank god. But his daycare bans anything with nuts in it. Only because there is a kid with a but allergy, but it’s not deadly.

Question by la_mami_de_bklyn: Why does my eczema flare to foods that I’m not allergic to?
When I have dairy or wheat, my eczema flares. I got an allergy test done and I’m not allergic to dairy products or wheat. I’m also not allergic to cats according to the allergy test, but when I’m around cats my allergies get really bad (itchy eyes, hard to breathe, etc). Why is this?

Answer by Frank
You could have Celiac disease. Technically, Celiac disease is an allergy to gluten, a protein in wheat.

It is a different allergic reaction than the kind of allergic reaction that an allergist would do, but we call them both “allergies” in casual usage. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder (eczema is, too, which is not an accident). An autoimmune reaction is not the same thing as an allergy, though we group them together. A course in histology will help you understand the difference between the two. But suffice it to say that even though you don’t test positive for an allergy, you can still have an autoimmune reaction that is potentiated by gluten, a reaction that will also potentiate your eczema.

It is not uncommon for gluten to cause eczema flares.
