Guest guest Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Sierra, What is failsafe? I've seen it mentioned in the last couple of days, but have never heard of it. How does it work? Where can I go for info? Thanks. D. From: purpledragonmama05 <sierra.ansley@...> Subject: Re: Failsafe has been working great and... Date: Tuesday, February 3, 2009, 1:28 AM Have you specifically heard of enzymes replacing FAILSAFE? My family did a similar diet (low histamine, in addition to GF/CF) and from my understanding of why FAILSAGE works, I can't imagine how enzymes could replace it. It's not a diet of eliminating food that doesn't get completely digested, like GF/CF. Also, enzymes only replace the GF/CF diet for some people- for some people (like my son) he needed to be absolutely 100% GF/CF even on enzymes (the enzymes did help him so he did take them). We're now on SCD and he no longer seems to need enzymes (the amine issues are much improved too). One theory of why FAILSAFE works is that many of the foods that you're avoiding are either toxins or are actually detoxers, but when you take in something that detoxifies, you often get a worsening of symptoms at first as the toxin is released back into your blood from your tissues. Epsom salt is also a detoxifier, so if it is helping then if you want to take another step maybe you should look into further detoxing and removal of toxins from the environment? It sounds like that is working really well for you so far. -Sierra > > I see a lot of positive from giving her Epsom salt baths.

It is a diet focusing on amines. I have links in the middle of this page http://www.danasvie w.net/phenol. htm Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
