Re: YES YES YES !!! I think I have a piece of the puzzle too:
OK...I've skimmed through the book. Sounds very interesting. I've going to give it a try.
So what percentage of foods did you find you are alergic too.
Is it super obvious when you have a reaction. How much does your pulse increase?

I see Dr Larry Wilson mentions this as well.
The Coca Pulse Test. With this simple test, one takes one’s pulse, then eats a suspected food, preferably after not eating it for a week. One waits 10 minutes and then checks the pulse again. If the pulse increases more than about 10 beats per minute it indicates a reaction. This is not an exact method and does not register delayed reactions, but may be helpful.
Here is another link…..Pretty simple really. Dr Coca probably had a hard time stretching this out to make a book that would get published:)

Pulse Test:
Another way to test for food allergies is the pulse test. To do the pulse test:
Take your pulse before eating.
Take your pulse by placing two or three fingers of one hand about an inch below the thumb of the other hand. Count the beats for a full minute. For this test it is not adequate to time 30 seconds and multiply by two. After taking your pulse, place a piece of the test food in your mouth. Hold it there for two minutes and take your pulse again. If your pulse goes up 4 beats, you are sensitive to the food and should only eat it occasionally. If it goes up 8 beats or more, you are definitely allergic.
