Herbal Relief for Allergies

By Tina Marie Jones

Many people are allergic to foods and do not even know it. They suffer from a host of symptoms and illnesses that over time become 'normal' and they do not think to look at their diets as the culprit.

Most common food allergens:

Chocolate

Wheat

Milk products

Eggs

Shellfish

Strawberries

Peanuts

Foods containing sulfites

Symptoms of allergy responses to foods include:

headaches

difficulty breathing

coughing

mucus

abdominal pain

stuffy nose

flushed face/neck

'hot flashes'

diarrhea

irritability or feelings of anger

fatigue

'fuzz brain'

itching or hives

Removing common food allergens for a four week period will allow the body to release toxins and excess fluid held as part of the allergen response.

It is recommended to complete a four-week flush prior to reintroducing one or more of the food allergens to the body.
