Re: Re: Apraxic son might now have a dairy allergy.

The body generally craves what it needs-----the question is what in your body

needs it?--the problem is we are NOT alone in our bodies--we are entire

ecosystems where viruses and good and bad bacteria coexist and our bodies when

in optimal health keep them at bay. When the immune system is weakened and the

balance is broken----harmful bacteria, viruses etc are more likely to flourish

and even attract new infections ----- In turn these harmful

bacteria/viruses/parasites etc--commonly known as opportunistic infections can

overpopulate and take over--they then can start to dictate what they want more

of--and cause cravings for just the foods that further weaken the immune system

since these are the things they seek---cancer cells also thrive in acidic

environments--sugar is acidic as are most processed foods--(aka junk food) all

harmful to the immune system and our overall health--but great fro opportunistic

infections--so it's a double whammy.

It is this type of craving that some doctors refer to as being bad for us.

Otherwise what our own body cells crave is generally beneficial to our body. It

is only the opportunistic infections that mess up the craving signals and

further deplete us of the good nutrients causing a spiraling downturn in health.

Yeast is probably the most common culprit in all of us. That's why it is so hard

to kick the sweet tooth--and it si actually easier to go completly off sweets

initially--until the yeast that craves it dies off--or you will be destined to

think about nothing but your next bite of a sweet treat. After several weeks of

no sugar though--the body no longer craves it and you can go back to moderate

consumption is health condition allows.

Nutrition is what good health is all about--and unfortunately most processed

modern diets are very deficient in vital nutrients which boosts opportunistic

infections and yes, these kids can crave things that are bad for their

health--but this rarely applies to natural whole foods--or anything that does

not involve refined carbs and sugar--those are the big yeast/parasite/cancer

feeders and that's all the confusion.

Your therapist said that the body craves what it doesn't need? I would have

told her " Speak for your own sickly body " Boy if she were right ... Wouldn't

that mean that the human race is doomed???

I just want to jump in yet again with another gentle reminder 'if' your child

isn't allergic to milk- which should be tested for by a doctor (and so glad

you'll be seeing one for this)...and you pull your child off of milk -you put

your child at risk for weak brittle bones, short stature, and obesity..here's

just one article http://www.ajcn.org/cgi/content/full/76/3/675 I have much

more on this if you need more info such as how you can replace the milk by

having your child suck on bones etc (no really -but you can also cook them in

soups first)

" Yet it is possible to attain optimal health without dairy foods. Price

discovered groups using no dairy foods that had complete resistance to dental

decay and chronic disease; their diets invariably included other rich sources of

animal fats, calcium and other minerals. The soft ends of long bones were

commonly chewed, and the shafts and other bones were used in soups. "

Some do have to avoid milk due to true allergy and I do hope your child isn't

one of them -but I have a question for you....is your child on fish oil because

the dry patches and skin rashes- that's a number one sign of lack of the

essential fatty acids. (fish oils)

And constant runny nose -not sure where you live but if you are in a cold

area...my nose always does that when I am cold which is why I moved to Florida

(just kidding -I only moved here to be close to Mickey Mouse) But anyway here's

787 other reasons why a constant runny nose

Best of luck and if you don't have your child on the fish oils read

http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=115029735601 & topic=7401 and ask your ped

if you can use the fish oils -try that before the radical and possibly

unnecessary and keep it simple if you can!
