These include malt, cow’s milk, eggs, com, rye, oats, wheat, cocoa, oranges, tomatoes, potatoes, peanuts and chicken.
Sometimes a strong allergy to a given food can make you mildly allergic to other members of its food family. Be on the look out for this. For instance, if you are allergic to onions and don’t feel any better for having avoided them, experiment by going off chives, spring onions, garlic and leeks as well. Regularly consult the food family table in the back of the book. This is done as a last resort and only after all the commonly allergic foods and amines and salicylates have been tested for. Don’t even consider doing it if you’ve broken the program.
If you show up allergic, go on your personal Anti-Allergy Program (which is the Anti-Candida Program minus the foods you are specifically allergic to) for a minimum of ninety days from the time of determining your allergic food(s). Those of you who have been on cortisone and antihistamines may find that once off cortisone, you still need antihistamines to keep your symptoms at bay. If this is the case you must still go off the antihistamines for seven days before the tests. (You must be completely off cortisone.) This could be uncomfortable as the symptoms may well flare up. I wish there was an easier way but unfortunately there is not. After the tests you can go straight back on to the antihistamines (but not cortisone tablets) while the program is starting to take effect and then wean yourself off them (under a doctor’s supervision) as your symptoms abate. If suffering from asthma use a Ventolin inhaler during these seven days and any other non-cortisone/ non-antihistamine drug your doctor recommends. If suffering from eczema or other skin rashes for which your doctor has recommended cortisone creams, keep using them. Cortisone creams won’t interfere with the tests (cortisone puffers will). In fact cortisone creams help by keeping skin conditions at bay while the program is taking effect. Looking at a skin condition can be so distressing as to cause it to flare up and resist the healing effects of the program.
