KISS guide to Allergies

....TO THIS!

​What are Allergies?
An allergy is the body´s reaction to substances that are usually harmless to most people. When you're allergic to something, your immune system mistakenly believes that this substance is harmful to your body and your immune system identifies it as an allergen. An allergen is any substance that the body recognises as foreign or dangerous. 
Allergies are not caused by pollen, foods, medicines, etc.,.however in some people these things can act as triggers causing the body to react. In an attempt to protect the body, the immune system produces IgE antibodies to that allergen. Those antibodies then cause certain cells in the body to release chemicals into the bloodstream, one of which is histamine. The trigger is not the reason the body is reacting, if that were so everyone would react, wouldn´t they? 

Why Do People Get Allergies
It has been suggested that the tendency to develop allergies is often genetic, however, as with all genes, just because you have an inherited gene doesn't mean you will definitely develop the allergy/disease/illness that your family genes may show. A person usually doesn't inherit a particular allergy/disease/illness,just the genetic tendency towards these.

               A healthy body with a strong immune system does not have allergies. 

So why do we get allergies then….

• Weakened immune system
• Inefficient digestive system
• Poor breathing technique
• Toxic overload

……..basically the body is in a state of imbalance and is unable to process and eliminate optimally and therefore some substances will trigger a reaction we interpret as an allergy. In a healthy body any potentially harmful substances would be processed and eliminated from the body in the normal way with no allergic response. 

Types of Allergic Diseases
The fact is that many conditions are caused by an allergic response in the body. It is not only runny noses, itchy eyes and rashes that are the signs and symptoms of an allergic reaction. When there is a build up of toxins and the body cannot eliminate them we then see signs of disease and chronic illness - some of the most common are: 

• Asthma
• eczema
• Hay fever
• Diabetes
• Arthritis
• Irritable bowel
• Food intolerances

Dealing with Allergies
So you have an allergy, what do you do?
The conventional treatment for allergies is avoidance and suppression of the symptoms.
While this will give temporary relief it will not improve the condition sufficiently unless you are able to completely avoid the allergen for the rest of your life. Also as the body will still be in a state of imbalance it usually will mean that this will show up in another way. 
To correct allergic conditions, the body must be brought into balance and allowed to self heal. Detoxification and strengthening of the immune system while avoiding the allergic trigger is important. 

Keeping It Super Simple:
Give your body what it needs to do its job, it will always strive for health and wellness and even the most toxic body will find a way to maintain life as long as possible.
Getting the basic needs of the body are, as always, the first step :

• Oxygenate the body -  proper breathing is fundamental for health
• Hydrate your body - your body needs on water to survive. Every cell, tissue, and organ in your body needs water to maintain it.  Your body uses water to maintain its temperature, remove waste, and lubricate joints, as well as many other things. 
• Relaxation of the whole body, cells, muscles, tissues and mind - if your body is in a state of tension , this causes a resistance in flow which means that your body cannot function at its best.
• Physical and chemical balance and alignment - if you are out of alignment  physically, your body has to compensate for this. Sphenoid realignment will restore optimal balance throughout the body.  Restoring pH balance in the body is essential for maintaining health.

When the above are corrected the body is then ready to receive the correct nutrition and through detoxification will be able to process and eliminate optimally and you can then work on the best course of action required to "cure" any allergies that you may have. 

​Of course you can always opt for the band aid / quick fix, and pop a pill or nasal spray or live your life avoiding , for some people, a multitude of triggers. 

If you seriously want to live your life in a happy healthy way....there is nothing to stop you...except YOU!
