Title: Some informations for headaches
Post by sevim on May 30th, 2006, 5:11am
Ok I decide to stop bitching about this situation I don’t care what he is saying I made my mind to find some solution for this bloody illness has been ruining our life. I belive this days we getting all our illness from food that we are putting in our stomach. To many chemical it is not food any more combination of all chemical mix together all their aim make us addict to their product.
I am bit old fashion I don’t like modern world medications it always cause some other damage in the body while fixing other part.
I am just wondering you all have allergic reaction to food, I found couple of web site where they are talking about environmental pollution and also food that create toxication in body. Because last year we move in suburb where there is lots of factory and 3 months later my husband end up with this illness. Also during this time he developed food allergies which he never had before. He ends up with chronic yeast infection (due to all antibiotics and bad habit of eating junk). This month I have approach to GP who is also nutrition’s and we done couple of test. The first test BIO-DERMAL SCREENING ALLERGY TEST, Which will show all food that you are allergic the second test LIVE BLOOD ANALYSIS which we found out that he has yeast in his blood which cause many problem in the blood vessel. Many test does not show yeast in body because we all have yeast but when is under control it can cause CFS (Chronic fatigue syndrome). I have also couple of list for the food that trigger headaches it is bit hard to stick with the list but wort while to try.
You have to check food that you are allergic and food cause headaches. My husband allergic to tomato so even tomato does not cause the headaches he can have it because it will trigger his pain.

PS: I grove up in village and never had any of these ingredients listed. Also this might be bizarre but I realize that people who moved from our village to city after certain age they all died from cancer people who stayed they make it 80 to 90 years. I guess their immune system not tolerating the food from city. I still got more info about bread, breakfast cereals also check this product call MIVITALITY on the web. I THOUGHT THIS MIGHT HELP LITTLE BIT

I visited a dietician and she said that a good thing to avoid is perserivtives.  the chemicals that companies use is sometimes common to have people have headaches from but it is such a small portion that it is allowed.


[i know you said this in there but it is a good statement and people need to hear it]
so, limit the MSG and pre packaged foods....i'd say eliminate, but i love my chinese food
