Allergies To Mold

[MsMary]

Most of your responses are about how to deal with mold allergies, but they just deal with maintenance. Mold allergies only get worse as you get older, and for those who are parents looking to resolve your children's issues, this is scary. It's scary for your child growing up thinking that your doctor has all the answers. They don't. First of all, an allergy mold means no more antibiotics, no more steroid packs, no more of the most basic medicines to deal with common colds and ailments. Giving a child these things will ruin their immune system. Herbs can be used, but the best thing is to change the diet.

Remove all mold from the diet. It's called the Candida diet. No more bread, no more processed sugars, nothing with sugar substitutes, and nothing with replacement proteins (soy or whey). Once older, no beer or wine, and preferably no liquor either. Anything fermented, aged, and processed is a problem and will bring on-going suffering. The idea isn't to maintain a low suffering rate, it's to prevent suffering at all.

Please take the time to consider this possibility. You and your children deserve to live without suffering. You are not a prisoner to your own body.

I will answer your MOLD specific question.

I have various allergies to cats dogs, some pollens and dustmites.
I have had post nasal drip all my life, its a normal part of my body now.

I tried antihistamines and allergy shots.

After a long mold exposure in our wet basement I became hypersensitized to it. Minor amounts made me feel sick. Pretty pathetic.

You may hear various so called expert Drs. tell you that moving is not the answer. They may quote that many patients leave only to get new allergies in Arizona.

I think that is unfounded. I think they may have read about that but actully have very few patients that this has happened to.

Its all about raw particle counts. Sure there is mold everywhere but look at the raw data on counts. In michigan the mold counts are 50,000 or more.
in Arizona its like single digits if that.

Mold can't replicate in the dry air. It does in Michigan.

Dustmites can't live past 6000 feet.

I tried it, I lived in Arizona mountains for 4 weeks I had ZERO post nasal drip. First time in my life.

My post nasal returned in 15 minutes in michigan outside air. It seems the chronic allergies take away about 15 percent of my energy.

Even if you do get new allergies in Arizona mountains they will not be as severe. They can't be. The raw particle counts are way lower.
Plus there is about zero mold and zero dust mites at 6000ft.

Trust me don't listen to the ignorant ones. Don't go to Phoenix as they have a ton of air pollutions. Go up higher.
