Manik G. Hiranandani (Updated 1st February 2013) Introduction Harish, a 10 year old boy was brought to see me with complaints of constant coughs and colds. I saw Harish again after 2 weeks, he was rebellious at having to give up wheat and biscuits which were his staple foods. Three years later I saw Harish again. The abstention from Gluten helped him to recover his health and gave him a better quality of life. Food allergies today are a significant cause of illness, especially in the developed world. Milk and gluten allergy receive a significant mention in all recent textbooks of medicine as overwhelming evidence has accumulated about the many problems these allergies can cause.

Gluten allergy is more common in North India and in the United states where wheat is the main cereal in the diet and pesticide use is high. Types of Gluten allergy There are 2 types of gluten allergies. Type 2 gluten allergy is the more severe type. Prognosis in patients who totally abstain from gluten. Dangers of Soy. Are you convinced yet about the dangers of soy?

Dangers of Soy

Many aren’t. “Is soy bad for you? …Really?” I hear the question so often I want to scream. After decades of hearing marketing spin about how soy is a wonder food, a protein-rich legume able to rescue us from our dependence on meat, I suppose it’s understandable why so many people have yet to understand fully the dangers of soy. Well, it isn’t. Dangers of Soy Thankfully, more and more independent research has been done regarding the dangers of soy, and what it’s revealed should scare you.

Soy Danger #1: Phytoestrogens Soy is higher in phytoestrogens than just about any other food source. It’s only common sense. An infant taking the recommended amount of soy formula is consuming a hormone load equivalent of 4 birth control pills a day! Soy Danger #2: Goitrogenic. Honey, I killed the superbug. AUSTRALIAN researchers have been astonished to discover a cure-all right under their noses -- a honey sold in health food shops as a natural medicine.

Honey, I killed the superbug

Far from being an obscure health food with dubious healing qualities, new research has shown the honey kills every type of bacteria scientists have thrown at it, including the antibiotic-resistant "superbugs" plaguing hospitals and killing patients around the world. Some bacteria have become resistant to every commonly prescribed antibacterial drug. But scientists found that Manuka honey, as it is known in New Zealand, or jelly bush honey, as it is known in Australia, killed every bacteria or pathogen it was tested on.

It is applied externally and acts on skin infections, bites and cuts. The honey is distinctive in that it comes only from bees feeding off tea trees native to Australia and New Zealand, said Dee Carter, from the University of Sydney's School of Molecular and Microbial Biosciences. Tibetan Tsampa. Can Pork Consumption Really Cause Liver Cancer? By Dr.

Can Pork Consumption Really Cause Liver Cancer?

Mercola Levitical guidelines label the pig an "unclean" animal, and prohibit the consumption of pork.Regardless of your spiritual beliefs, there may be good reason to carefully consider your decision to include pork as part of your diet, as despite advertising campaigns trying to paint pork as a "healthy" alternative to beef, research suggests it may be hazardous to your health on multiple levels.Pork consumption has a strong epidemiological association with cirrhosis of the liver -- in fact, it may be more strongly associated with cirrhosis than alcohol (although some have questioned the studies that indicate this, and point out that countries with high pork consumption tend to have low obesity rates.)Other studies also show an association between pork consumption and liver cancer as well as multiple sclerosis.

What's behind this data? Most U.S. Pigs are Fed Grains, Making Them High in Inflammatory Omega-6 Fats Most Pork is Consumed in Processed Form. Institute for Responsible Technology -
