Food allergy occurs when the
immune system mistakenly attacks a food protein. So you can see that
it is all about your immune system!
From Dr. Mitra Ray's book, "From
Here to Longevity" she says, "More long-term effects of a dysfunctional
immune system include allergies, asthma, autoimmune disorders and
cancer. These can be the result of oxidative stress, which mutates DNA
and, therefore, challenges the function of the cells of the immune
system."
(Please refer to my website and
the research on Juice Plus to see the repair to the DNA, reduction of
oxidative stress, and strengthening the immune system).
As we age, our intestines are the
result of years of our eating habits. If we have 40 plus years of eating
the Standard American Diet, then the nutritious foods we do eat are not
getting the nutrients absorbed into the body. So just as we learned
for beautiful radiant skin -- it all starts in the gut -- our intestines
and our daily diet and lifestyle habits!
I recommend getting Dr. Mitra
Ray's book, "Do You have the Guts to Be Beautiful", when you follow her
regimen for beautiful skin, you will be cleansing your gut and this will
solve everything! Do not expect to cleanse and detox without some
unpleasant reactions. This is why it is necessary to understand how
your body works and how it heals itself.
When we take a drug we get an
immediate effect. Caffein - feel good. However, it does not equal "good
for you". Our body heals slowly. Here are a few examples from some of
my customers.
My friend in St. Louis would get
sick every year from bronchitis. She began taking Juice Plus and
immediately got a bronchitis attack. Now she could of called her Juice
Plus Representative, me, and said Juice Plus bad for me! I started it
and immediately got sick! Well that is what she did. However, instead
of quitting, she began to learn and understand how her body heals. All
the nutrition from the 26 fruits, vegetables and berries went to work
immediately to begin the process of healing her bronchitis. So when our
body is healing itself what does it do? It takes that beautiful
nutrition and starts the process of replacing damaged cells with
nutrient rich cells. Shedding the damaged cells through, fever,
sweating, diarrhea, or constipation (when one does not consume water),
flu like body ache, and all the unpleasant symptoms we experience when
our bodies try to heal!
Here is the good news. As
unpleasant as healing can be, my friend, experienced her bronchitis
attacks, less severely until they eventually went away completely.
Today it is absolutely not a concern of hers. She is healed and just
does not have them anymore! It took about a year!
Another customer of mine has an
allergic reaction to citrus. She would get a sore or sores on the
inside of her mouth every time she consumed citrus. Most food allergies
are triggered in the mouth, so some people can swallow the capsules and
not feel any reaction, however, some do. Well she did. She started
taking her Juice Plus and immediately got the sores inside her mouth.
Again, she could have just said, Juice Plus bad for me, I am allergic,
can't take it. But again, she was willing to understand how her body
works and how her body heals. Each time she had the allergic reaction,
it was less severe than the previous one, until it finally went away.
Now she can peel and eat an orange or have a grapefruit with no allergic
reaction!
In both cases, as their immune
systems got stronger and healthier their bodies stopped attacking itself
and the immune system got stronger and stronger and achieved balance or homeostasis! Now unless you
are going into anaphylaxis shock with the danger of dying, you can heal
yourself from allergies. It takes time and all the building blocks to
cleanse the gut and good nutrition. Beautiful radiant skin is eliminating the waste and feeding
the cells nutrition!
This is why we have people start
on Juice Plus slowly to minimize the detox. And you might think that
someone with a serious disease would eat even more Juice plus and many
do, however, we have to start them really slowly! When someone is having
a reaction, that is an absolute red flag that they need it the most!
Our body is designed by the creator to enjoy all the fruits and
vegetables on the planet. Certainly, something has gone wrong when the
immune system mistakenly attacks a food protein.
