Allergies

Immunologist Professor Katie Allen from the Murdoch Childrens Research Institute says Australian children have the highest recorded rate of food allergies in the world and warns the statistics could translate into a wave of chronic diseases.


It’s very appropriate that this week is Allergy week in Australia after the announcement of these findings in April 2011. Allergies are primarily a deterioration in the intelligence of the cells in the body. The body over reacts to certain foods or chemicals and creates undesirable effects including hyperactivity, skin rashes, stomach upsets and even death.

Back in the 60s and 70s when I went to school, we all drank milk for morning tea, and meat pies and sandwiches were on the lunch menu, I didn’t know anyone who couldn’t eat peanuts or tree nuts; in fact, peanut butter sandwiches were a favourite and not banned in any schools I knew. I had one friend whose sister was a genetic coeliac (gluten intolerant), but apart from her, everyone ate wheat. Kids could eat what they wanted without fear of anaphylaxis or some allergic reaction or intolerance.

This month the Changing Habits free report is on Allergies, the report discusses the epidemic of allergies in the last 10 years then gives actions as to how to create more intelligence in the body and thus reduce the sensitivities and allergies.
