Guest guest Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 Hi , Below are comments by Elaine about allergies. This does not apply to allergies that produce anaphylactic reactions. Testing for improvements to these type of reactions should be done in a doctor's office. Mimi --------------------------------------------------------------------------------\ ------------------------------------- If the allergy test stated " cow's milk " , then it would not apply to goat's milk. However, over the 45 years I have been involved with allergy testing, I have found it to be very, very inaccurate. I am not saying that one should ignore it all, but as a child remains on SCD, the allergies fade away. I remember case after case of people getting well on SCD and feeling that they wanted doctor supervision to give them support nonetheless. During the first few years, I recommended some holistic doctors who appeared to support my work. Invariably, the patient would call back in tears. Why! Because they were showing tremendous improvement on SCD and they were testing positive to all the foods they had been eating and upon which they were getting well. Elaine Gottschall .. ***************************************************** Just let me add my two cents. With all due credit to the allergists (they were the first in the medical profession to look at food as the culprit in so many disorders), they, for some reason (not scientific) decided that allergies are based on proteins (and parts of proteins like peptides). Therefore, all that emerged from them for the last 25 years had to fall into the gluten (protein) and casein (protein) categories. They stuck to their guns in spite of the growing body of evidence which showed us about autoimmunity and the role of bacteria in creating the autoimmune condition. And the role of feeding these bacteria and yeast on a surplus of carbohydrates in the incubation tank of the gut (the colon). But the whole world of gluten had taken on a life of its own! Again, those who wish to follow GF/CF and are finding relief, well, that speaks for itself. For those who need more, there is always SCD.
