Why Am I Having an Allergic Reaction to Nuts?

At times, it is not enough to simply enough that we are having a problem but we may want to understand what is going on underneath the surface. I know that whenever I was very young, my parents told me that I was not able to eat nuts and they were very strict with making sure that I avoided them. I came to appreciate that this was not because they were trying to keep me away from something that I should have, it was because they were concerned for my very life. The reactions that I had whenever I ate nuts were so severe that at times, it landed me in the hospital.

You might be surprised to find out what is at the root of your allergic reaction to nuts. Actually, it is not really the nuts that are causing you to have a problem at all, it is your own body.

There are certain proteins that are present in all types of nuts and at times, our body may react to these proteins as if it were a dangerous toxin.

In an effort to get rid of the protein, our body will release a massive amount of histamine into our system and this can cause us to feel the way that we do.

This histamine can cause a number of different problems with this which can range from skin disorders to anaphylaxis, a deadly allergic reaction.

Unfortunately, there is little that can be done in order to overcome nut allergies. There has always been a lot of research that has gone into this but the best that they are able to do is to help you to cope with the symptoms that you experience if you should happen to come into contact with nuts.

For example, if you have a slight reaction you may be able to overcome it by taking an over-the-counter antihistamine.

If you have a more severe reaction, however, such as anaphylaxis, you may need to take an injection. Many people that have severe nut allergies carry an epinephrine autoinjector with them that quickly gives them the medicine that they need.

Since you understand the reason why you are having these allergic reactions, you can easily see the reason why an anti-histamine can help you overcome it.

Always make sure that you are prepared, even though you will also what to make sure that you avoid nuts in the first place. Should you happen to come into contact with them accidentally, you should be able to overcome any reaction that you experience.

Even when we try to eat well, we're disadvantaged. The nutritional content of most food has been compromised over the years, not only by deficient soils and modern production, transportation, storage and processing methods, but also by the enormous amounts of chemical and artificial substances added to promote growth, storage life, taste and appearance.

It's for this reason that more and more medical authorities are advocating the use of vitamin and mineral supplements. However, finding them in the right combination can be both confusing and costly.
The nutrition products I am going to recommend you make use of knowledge gained from the botanical world's 6,000 year history. They incorporated health building nutritional herbs with the best modern technology to help our bodies cleanse and detoxify so that the cells - the tiniest living units - can be as fully nourished as possible.

This allows the cells to grow, repair and to perform their functions with the best possible efficiency so that we feel and look better and are more able to prevent and fight disease. Once the body begins to clear itself of toxins it can more efficiently absorb nutrition.

Further reading through our articles on health issues will give you a body of information that will help you decide what options you have to deal with the underlying causes of your problem through giving your body the nutrition products that will assist you body to heal from the inside out.
