Re: which came first, the allergies or the disease? (edited)
That's a lot of stuff to avoid though. Isn't it hard? What do you eat?
I eat primal diet, like a caveman. It eliminates all foods that you can be allergic to. Makes your life well worth living.
That's why we need to work on our immune system. But how?
Parasites will do that for you. But the thing with parasites is that they don't like to live in an environment where the host eats high carb diet. When carbs and sugar are taken away there will be a symbiotic effect between parasites and human.
" In a recent study published in Clinical and Experimental Allergy, investigators found that if mice had their gut infested with parasitic worms, they developed fewer food and airway allergies, but the parasites gave no protection from skin allergies. This is the first evidence that intestinal worms can actually modulate the immune system and “protect” against developing allergies."

But I still don't know exactly if parasites prevent allergies or they train immune system to fight allergies.
