Tip 72. The
reality
of f
o
od allergies.
Despite the
scepticism of American specialists,
f
o
od allergy is an important cause of disease. There are two methods to detect disturbing fo
o
ds. The first
method is the trial-and-
error
elimination
diet. This a
u
tomatically elimina
t
es many hazards and foods.
Keep to organic,
untreated,
u
nprocessed
foods as far
as poss
i
ble
and you will eliminate another set of
hazards such as p
e
sticides, vari
o
us sprays
a
nd other poisons.
After having eliminated
as many disturbing fact
o
r
s as possible, a self-se
a
rch should
b
e carried out to ascer
t
ain any suspicious
symptoms from
f
oods. It is
a
dvisable to
t
ry an elimination diet, excluding s
u
spected fo
o
ds for two weeks until
t
h
e cause is
d
etected. Occasionally, by
changing t
h
e brand or the type, you
can find a
f
ood substit
u
te that does
not upset you.
