Guest guest Posted February 15, 2003 Report Share Posted February 15, 2003 I'm happy to report that my one mouse experiment seems to be working successfully. I reintroduced Brazil nuts into my diet a couple of weeks ago starting with a tiny amount, every other day. I have worked up to 1/2 of a Brazil nut every other day with no ill effects. (Some Brazil nuts can be huge and 1/2 nut is not a small amount. I was formerly eating one nut a day when my allergy was in full bloom.) So this technique seems to work. For you allergy sufferers, the formula is this. You stay away from your allergen for a while (for me it was a year and 1/2 before I got up my nerve to even attempt this). Then reintroduce slowly in tiny quatities to see how things go. If no bad effects, gradually work up to slightly larger amounts as time goes on. I'm tickled pink since Brazil nuts are one of the few sources of selenium, a potent cancer fighter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
