  • Allergy Effects On The Liver And Colon
    The Liver:

    The liver is the largest gland in the body. Amongst other things, it is a detoxifying agent and a blood reservoir. It breaks down waste matter in the blood and manufactures blood proteins; converting sugar and carbohydrates into glycogen, which it then stores for the manufacture of glucose when needed. It collects vitamins and minerals from food and stores them for future use. The liver also manufactures bile, which is stored in the gall bladder, and released, w...
  • Allergy Effects On The Pancreas And Small Intestine
    Pancreas:

    The pancreas is a long, narrow gland which stretches from the spleen to about the middle of the duodenum. It has three main functions. Firstly, to provide digestive juices for everything that goes through the duodenum. These digestive juices contain pancreatic enzymes in an alkaline solution to provide the right conditions for the digestive process to be completed in the small intestine. Secondly, the pancreas produces insulin, the hormone which controls blood su...
  • Allergy Effects On The Kidneys, Respiratory System And Stomach
    The kidneys:

    The two kidneys are responsible for many vital functions. Briefly, they perform the complex task of extracting from the blood, used up proteins, minerals and other elements making up the toxic waste of the metabolic process. This residual material, together with waste water, is then passed in the form of urine, through to the bladder before being finally expelled from the body.

    Allergy-caused overloading may cause the liver to deteriorate and lose its capac...
  • Your Immune System And Allergy
    The ability of the immune system to fight disease is dependent upon the level of general health and physical fitness. However, even a. healthy body will have its immunocompetence severely reduced by excessive stress or fatigue. The reason for this is that, amongst other things, stress increases the viscosity of the blood.

    The blood is an all-important factor in the promotion of effective immune responses. A high blood viscosity brought about by stress, or lack of physical ...
  • The Masked Allergy And Symptoms
    These differ from the conventional allergy as they are frequently exhibited in a masked form. For this reason, clinical ecology has been slow in gaining medical acceptance. However, these days the doctor specializing as a clinical ecologist is gaining recognition in Europe and the United States. Speaking on the situation in Australia, Professor Ian Lewis of the University of Tasmania says that the current medical training is not geared towards producing doctors that can solve...
  • Compulsive Drinking And Allergies
    Many people need a drink to get through the day because they are addicted to the ingredients from which their favorite alcoholic beverage is made. Consequently it seems that alcoholism and food addiction are closely related, if not identical.

    Researchers at the Deaconess Hospital in St Louis, Missouri, have recently conducted an intensive enquiry into alcoholism and its possible causes. They found evidence to substantiate the belief that alcoholism is, in fact, a food alle...
  • Compulsive Eating And Allergies
    Compulsive eating is caused by one or several masked food allergies, which are invariably addictive, without the individual realizing it. Not all compulsive eaters are obese, but some reflect this condition. Others are likely to suffer from some form of overweight due to fluid retention. This is caused by the allergic response in the capillary blood vessels, when fluid passes through the capillary walls into surrounding tissues. Another cause is the build up of toxin impregna...
  • Causes And Symptoms Of Allergies
    In general terms, an allergy is a disorder which is brought about when the body adversely reacts to substances normally considered harmless. A true allergy is one which evokes certain medically recognizable responses in the body's immune system.

    Whereas non-harmful substances are metabolized effectively and broken down into approximately forty essential nutrients, allergenic substances are not. They clog the bloodstream and lymph system and are absorbed by the tissues, whe...
