Might you have Food Allergies?
Few people know that food can
cause unpleasant emotions. As scientists study complex human biology,
more data suggesting systemic and dietary
factors underlying emotions are unveiled. However, many health
professionals only update their knowledge with information from drug
manufacturers.
If you have periodic emotional swings, such as
depression, aggression or hyperactivity, you may be
allergic to common foods. You may suffer or you may take medications
to manage your emotions. Wheat, corn, milk or potatoes, for example, can trigger
emotional reactions in some people.
Many new foods are implicated in emotional
upsets. Although humanity has only had a short time to adapt
to them, new foods are heavily promoted and people are consuming more and
more of them.
| I was labeled ADD at school and
at work I was always slower than the others. A year ago, on a holiday,
I went to a Soulwork workshop. I said that I felt depressed
most mornings, although there was no reason for it. Mr. Carruthers asked
about my diet, and focused on my breakfast. He suggested
that I might consider avoiding cereals and milk products for a couple of weeks.
After two weeks I could think clearer - but a glass of milk would
bring deep depression. (An allergist tested my skin
and said that I was not allergic to milk.) My milk-free diet has
changed my life. I have been almost depression-free for a year! AJ London, UK |
A food allergy may (unconsciously) associate a certain
food with a forgotten illness or unpleasant emotion. Depression, during
a childhood disease or a family crisis, could be associated with a
common food. Later, eating that food may trigger some of the symptoms
of the illness or crisis.

Allergies to Common Foods
If you are allergic to common foods like milk, wheat, corn products and
potatoes - you may not react physically (such as a rash or difficult
breathing) - you may react emotionally. Common emotional reactions
to food allergies include aggression, depression and hyperactivity.
If you have emotional reactions to everyday foods,
you probably don't notice your reactions - instead you assume
that your reactions are part of who you are. You're not alone -
information about food allergies are rarely taught to health
professionals. It comprises a hidden epidemic.
Food allergies and sensitivities can cause almost any
symptom, from hyperactivity and inability to concentrate to rashes and
watery eyes. Food allergies can cause mood swings, foggy thinking,
aggression, sleepiness and hyperactivity. Children with food allergies
are more likely to have asthma, ear infections, respiratory infections
and/or behavior problems. They are also more likely to be diagnosed with
bipolar disorder, schizophrenia
and other mental health problems.
Learning Disabilities
Although it is a criminal offence for
drug sellers to sell addictive drugs to children - millions of
children diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD) are compelled to take addictive amphetamines such as Ritalin.
Children burdened with a label of ADHD or
some other learning disorder may have one or more underlying problems,
such as toxic family relationships, allergies, nutritional
deficiencies, food sensitivity, learning disabilities
or addictions
Food Allergies & Drugs
If you or your child take psychiatric drugs, discuss
the need for medications with a doctor who takes time to talk about food
allergies. Much post-graduate education of health professionals is by
drug companies - many doctors have a conditioned reflex to prescribe
more drugs.
Ritalin, for example, does not cure symptoms
associated with learning disabilities, nor address the underlying causes
of those symptoms. Although the causes of many symptoms may be dissolved by
systemic coaching or dietary change, you or a child may already be addicted to amphetamine.
Many people with food allergies control their
emotions with nicotine, alcohol, anti-depressants or amphetamines. Yet - as they remove allergic foods
from their diets - they may find that they don't need the medications
- but they may be addicted to the drugs, and health professionals often advise
people
to keep taking them.
Drug manufacture and distribution are highly profitable and highly regulated businesses - please
consult a licensed medical doctor before changing any prescribed
medication.
Systemic coaching can help people dissolve food allergies and
sensitivities.
