Question about soy allergies OT

[Guest guest]

I have a friend whose daughter has been major sick most of her life......she is

6 now. A lot of pneumonia and very very bad excema. She finally took her to an

allergist and they did tests and said that she is very allergic to soy. She

called me cause she didn't know what to look for in food and the doctor told her

to just look at the labels (very bad doctor). I told her that I'd see if anyone

knows of a website that has soy allergy info that would have a list of things to

look for in foods and hygiene products. She isn't a questioner....meaning if

that's what the doctor told her, she won't question any further. She has been

putting new creams and lotions and potions on this poor little girl for her

entire life......she has had such bad excema that her face looks like she was

burned. I feel so bad for her.....she itches so much and nothing helps her. I

was surprised when her mom called and asked for help. If there is anyone out

there who knows of a place to look this up, please let me know......I'd hate to

let her wait too long and then change her mind.

Wow. Sounds like more than just a soy allergy.

Our daughter has tons of allergies (ezcema etc) and we finally got fed up

with doctors and took her to a NAET specialist. (NAET is an allergy

elimination technique performed by some accupuncturists and chiropractors.

They use a painless accupressure technique for children -- no needles.) Good

results so far for us.

See the NAET messages on this mailing list for more input.

Good luck

Have you checked out the site on the bottom of all of our posts. The

www.gfcfdiet.com has a little information about soy allergies and what

ingredients on labels to look for. You just go to the site map and look for

the word soy and click on it. I hope it helps. I feel bad for this child.
