food allergies!!!!!

Thanks to my friend Amy who told me I should blog about the cool stuff I have found lately...

I grew up around a LOT of kids who had food allergies that limited them to the same diet as their goats and horses. Yikes! I always felt really sorry for them.

Recently, after Ian was born, I started having stomach aches every time I ate. Ian started getting really colicky at around 6 weeks. I was in my chiropractor/acupuncturist's office and told them about his colic. The acupuncturist told me that food allergies are often the cause of colic (I had no idea.) So, she did this very different, completely non-invasive, non-painful allergy test for Ian and I and guess what!! He is allergic to almost the whole planet and I am allergic to all of that plus the rest of the planet! My son and I are those kids that I felt sorry for!

BUT GET THIS!!!! She can desensitize our bodies to almost anything (just not gluten). So the poultry and eggs, dairy products, vitamin B, sugar, rice, corn, and soy that we are allergic to will soon all be edible for us again. HOW COOL IS THAT?!

I LOVE alternative medicine! What allergist ever offered to cure you of allergies or cure your kid's colic?!

Network chiropractic coming soon! ....
