What worked for me was a 3-prong approach: 1) work on candida and other intestinal parasites. This took a combination of diet and various Thorne Products. SF722 is 10undecenoic acid, a really effective anti-candida supplement made from castor beans. There are also other formulations that have herbal anti-parasite ingredients. These made me feel awful for a couple of days to a couple of weeks while the parasites were dying off, but I felt MUCH better afterwards. 2) heal and rebuild: avoid black pepper (causes leaky gut, leading to food sensitivities), take L-glutamine capsules 30 minutes before each meal, take good probiotics. 3) NAET treatments to desensitize my body to the particular allergens. There is a whole 'nother list for NAET discussions; you can get the basics at the website www.naet.com. Hope this helps! I am now completely free of food sensitivities except for some common migraine triggers (mostly tyramine) and aspartame, which is so toxic to me that I hesitate to even include it as a food sensitivity! But mostly I can eat a wide variety of foods now with no problems, and I attribute most of that to the NAET. -- el - andrea@...

I took it with food because my stomach can be a bit sensitive, but I don't think it matters much. -- el - andrea@... (IFF " FNORD " appears - remove it from my email address to reply) " ...wake now!
