" I have broader allergies than what you've outlined. Given your

stated BMI for your height which seems to indicate you're too

underweight, your allergies may be a side effect of chronic high

cortisol which is caused by chronic stress such as inadequate

calorie intake or psychological factors. " >> Interesting, I have

been underweight all my life (I just prefered a slim figure and have

never gone above 2000 calories) - but until recently I never

connected it to my personality or well-being, but now I am begining

to wonder if my sexdrive which had always been quite low compared to

my peer group was not infact all down to my unintentional calorie

restriction. I have though crept up to ten stone eight at two brief

periods in my life and allergy never got any better, but I have

never tried say a 2700 cal diet for a few weeks to see how that

would effect the allergy.

" The best diet I've come across so far for someone with allergies to

common allergens such as wheat, corn, soy, dairy, eggs, chocolate,

tomatoes and citrus fruits is Dr. Perricone's anti-inflammation

diet, which features salmon, seafood, chicken, turkey, eggs, low-

glycemic vegetables and fruits. If you don't like salmon, just

substitute chicken or turkey and supplement with fish oil and DMAE.

It's a bit hard to get enough energy on this diet even on CRON, so

just up your safflower/sunflower or olive oil intake. " >> Thanks for

this, I will check out Dr. Perricone, and the diet listed is pritty

much what I will be trying next week once I use up the last of my

dairy supplies.
