Guest guest Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 " Nestle USA has issued a voluntary recall of specific Nestle Raisinets batches because they may contain peanuts. As the candy should not have peanuts there is a risk consumers with peanut allergies or severe sensitivity may eat them and become ill; in some cases with life-threatening reactions. The recall refers to Nestle Rasinets, Fun Size Bags, 10oz, with a production code of 02015748/UPC number 2800010255. The company says it is issuing this recall " out of an abundance of caution " . They have told the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and will cooperate fully with their investigation. " http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/205804.php ____________________ Scientists are reporting evidence that black rice - a little-known variety of the grain that is the staple food for one-third of the world population - may help soothe the inflammation involved in allergies, asthma, and other diseases. Their study appears in ACS' bi-weekly Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry. Friedman and colleagues point out that their previous research showed several potential health benefits of eating black rice bran. Bran is the outer husk of the grain, which is removed during the processing of brown rice to produce the familiar white rice. Those experiments, which were done in cell cultures, hinted that black rice bran suppressed the release of histamine, which causes inflammation.

The prevalence of PGEs, propylene glycol and glycol ethers, in bedroom air is associated with asthma, hay fever, and eczema, but also with antibodies against common allergens in children. The study shows a risk increase of up to 180 percent. " The study shows for the first time that the concentration of PGEs, propylene glycol and glycol ethers, in bedroom air was linked to an increased risk of developing asthma, hay fever, and eczema in children, " says Carl-Gustaf Bornehag, professor of public health science at Karlstad University and associated with the SP Technical Research Institute of Sweden. " The increase in risk varied between 50 and 180 percent. It was also found that a higher concentration of PGEs in indoor air was associated with children evincing antibodies (IgE) against allergens such as cats, dogs, pollen. Our analyses also revealed that the use of water-based paint in the dwelling, as well as water-based cleansers, was linked to a higher concentration of PGEs in bedroom air.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2010 Report Share Posted November 11, 2010 I did not have any but some folks do. It is not specific for allergies but is an amazing treatment. I have ulcerative colitis and chronic pain issues and both have improved dramatically since I started LDN. I would suggest reading up on it and seeing if it makes sense for your partner. I am guessing your partner may have some sort of GI issue since she is on such a restricted diet and the LDN might be of real assistance for that. The improved allergy thing is just a bonus for me. http://www.low dose naltrexone.org/http://ldn.proboards.com/index.cgi JaxiOn Thu, Nov 11, 2010 at 5:51 PM, Amy <amym5552@...> wrote: Thanks for that, I'll look into it.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2010 Report Share Posted November 11, 2010 No digestive issues really, which is strange, but the modified diet has basically gotten rid of her chronic fatigue issues, which has been amazing. She also has pcos, which someone on a previous post also recommended naltrexone for, so might be worth looking into. Lots of autoimmunity in the family too. Is it only prescription? And can you take it with iodine (once the iodine detox period is over)?? > > > > > > > Hi, > > > > > > > > Just wondering whether anyone's had experience with iodine improving > > > > allergies.

Guest guest Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Thanks for that. I've heard about NAET before, but it's a bit of a strange concept, so haven't tried it. I've heard a few people say that it's worked really well for them now though so might be worth looking into. > > > > Hi, > > > > Just wondering whether anyone's had experience with iodine improving allergies.
