Guest guest Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 Hi , I can see you're still confused. You're not alone if you've not done a CLT LEAP training (i.e. trained in non-IgE immune response to foods and chemicals.) We do NOT " add back moderately reactive foods just in case it was a false positive " - as you state. We add back reactive foods to TEST FOR ORAL TOLERANCE. People that try to add something to see if it's " false positive " within 2 months of their LEAP test too often find out that the food WAS positive - then they feel miserable for 2-4 days. Loss of Oral Tolerance is not a lifetime thing, like IgE allergies sometimes are. (Even IgE allergies can change, as we know kids that are no longer allergic to foods they were once allergic to, and we know adults that develop new IgE allergies. . .) You can lose AND regain " oral tolerance " to foods and chemicals. Once inflammation is reduced in the gut, the gut environment improved (sometimes via getting Vit D levels to normal - since vitamin D deficiency clearly increases gut permeability; via better probiotic balance, etc.) people may REGAIN ORAL TOLERANCE to foods/chemicals that caused symptoms months earlier. Just google, in quotation marks, " Loss of Oral Tolerance " if you want to learn more about this subject without doing the LEAP training. (Here is the URL I had for many links.) _http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient & ie=UTF-8 & rlz=1T4GGLL_enUS39 4US394 & q=%22loss+of+oral+tolerance%22_ (http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient & ie=UTF-8 & rlz=1T4GGLL_enUS394US3\ 94 & q= " loss+of+oral+tolerance " ) The goals of LEAP are to 1. GET THE PERSON WELL 2. Eventually, get the diet back to as normal as possible (but, for many people, it will be a " new normal " IF their pre-LEAP diet was full of junk, preservatives, artificial stuff and refined/processed garbage, including most fast-food, since rarely is fast-food without a ton of garbage ingredients.)

But according to you, they do eventually add back moderately reactive foods just in case it was a false positive. Otherwise you don't want them to eliminate foods that they really like (especially healthy foods) because of a false positive.
