Allergies involve the human triangle of emotions, circumstances and the physical body. Maybe there has been a significant emotional event in your life?
From an holistic viewpoint an allergy is simply an oversensitivity to a situation or substances which causes ones immunity to react as if the situation or substance were a severe threat to ones health. The condition on one hand therefore could be due to ones own immunity being over reactive rather than to the substances or situations in question. Our human immune system can overreact to healthy food substances that are perfectly safe to eat, such as the strawberries or tomatoes .
On the other hand when I ponder why allergies seem to be on the rise, I wonder if it is due to the huge amounts of adulterated, processed foods and non organic foods full of preservatives, emulsifiers and colours that we now consume.
Isolating yourself from an increasing array of substances which other folk seem to be able to tolerate well enough becomes so intrusive in the end as not to be a viable long term strategy.
The symptoms which arise from allergies often follow the line of the vagus nerve and include red and itchy rashes, swelling, sinus, hayfever, general irritation, altered heart rhythms and respiratory difficulties .
Extreme chemical allergies are therefore best treated by working to nourish your own immune system at all levels.
A course of Maritime Pine Antioxidant to support the fundamentals of your immune system may help to put your system back in balance. especially if there has been stress placed on your adrenals.
I recommend a program consisting of a course of Maritime Pine Antioxidant to support the fundamental immune system and a mixture of other herbs including Dandelion and Alfala for the liver which is the primary organ for digestion, Chamomile and Vervain for the nervous system, Hypericum and Euphorbia for the increased sensitivity along with the Bach Flowers Vervain, Walnut, and Holly.
