Environmental medicine is the treatment of three groups of allergies. These are:
Inhalant Allergies-is any substance which you breathe in or smell every day. This type of allergy can be hay fever, dust, mold spores or even the family pet. The allergy is the body's reaction to compounds in the air from the offending source.
Food Allergies- If inhalant allergies turns up negative, food allergies are tested next. These are much more difficult to diagnose. Often the final diagnosis is determined by the patient keeping a daily log of all foods consumed.
Chemical Allergies- most doctors do not consider chemical sensitivity to be an allergy. But pesticides, herbicides, car exhaust, fresh paint... all can be attributed to chemical allergies.
After all typical tests have been performed, the practitioner now has a good foundation to make a final diagnosis.
Signs In Your Body Of An Allergy
Allergies and its sensitivities can produce symptoms in any part of your body. Different people will even show different symptoms for the same allergen. Below are some common reports from different case studies:
Allergic Arthritis is simply just joint pain.
Asthma- is not having the ability to get air into your body. In environmental medicine, therapies are based on finding the cause and treating it. By using nutrient therapy, stress management and environmental controls- most food allergies can be reduced or eliminated.
Brain Allergy- the central nervous system can show a range of symptoms from depression, hyperactivity, fatigue, brain fog, headaches and even mental illness.
Autism- some children diagnosed as autistic actually just have an undiagnosed food allergy.
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome- an herbal therapy regimen often gives the patient the needed boost for the immune system to "rejuvenate".
Dementia- many people have shown considerable improvement after their allergy triggers have been identified.
Epilepsy- to date, no direct link has been found relating epilepsy to food allergies.
Currently, environmental medicine is a relatively new field of allergy research but extensive testing is making the medical community realize sensitivity reactions to anything we contact can be a trigger for many allergic reactions.
