A Cure for Reoccuring Allergy Attacks

I once suffered from chronic allergies and it showed. My eyes would get extremely puffy and swollen. The skin around it would appear red and rashly. And after a few days when the swelling would go down, the skin around my eyes would sag and get wrinkled from being stretched out so much. I would get these dark circles under my eyes that would take another week or so to go away. By the time my eyes would recover, another allergy inflammation would come. All of this on top of the reoccurring hay fever and nasal drip. But nothing is worse than having to wear sunglasses around the clock to hide my appearance, protect my light sensitive eyes, and to shield my fingers from clawing out my eyes.

After seeing an allergy specialist I was prescribed several allergy medications that did not offer enough relief and caused even worse side effects like chest pain, even violent realistic dreams. I would rather not get stabbed to death in my dreams only to wake up and still fell the knife wounds, thank you.

Was there any hope? Sure. The allergy test results showed that I was allergic to ragweed and pet dander. I had just purchased my house 2 years ago and have had allergies ever since. My house is in a woodsy area were ragweed is prevalent, so there was little I could to do to avoid the culprit. It even spread into my very own backyard from a neighbor's yard. I took 3 weeks off from work and went across the country to California, not surprisingly, my allergies disappeared. Is my only option to move?

Its no wonder they say that a common latent effect amongst allergy sufferers is depression. I was absolutely miserable and it showed. I also had psoriasis on my right index finger that would always flare up around the same time. It was a collaborative allergy movement throughout my body.

Well what gave me back my well being? A colon cleanser did. Once I began having reoccurring allergy attacks with little or no break in between, and experiencing them even in off season and/or while own allergy med's, I figured that the allergen is trapped inside my body and I've got to get it out.

According to WebMd, Allergies are an abnormal reaction of the immune system to specific substances. It attacks foreign particles as if they are harmful, even when substances like pollen are not. Allergies derive from a variety of sources, including food, environmental, chemical, plants, mold, and animal sources, such as venom from bees or dander from pets. Symptoms include itchy eyes, runny nose, sneezing, asthma, rashes, eczema, psoriasis, hives, and headache¹.

When the body succumbs to the toxic effects of allergens, it wants to expel the toxins by producing body fluids, such as through sneezes, watery eyes, runny noses, urine, and feces. The colon plays a pivotal role in this expulsion so we can deduce that most allergies lie within the colon. But if it is congested it is not fully functional, allergy symptoms can intensify and affect the entire body. Allergies alone can cause the colon to be obstructed, as we absorb toxins and foreign particles that the colon then releases into the bloodstream. The allergic reaction is intensified and the body becomes distortedly imbalanced.

A colon cleanser removes toxins from the bowels and stimulates the body's immune system to fight off allergies in a natural way². U.S. medicine uses antihistamines and steroids, like the ones I was prescribed, to relieve the symptoms of allergies, but does nothing to remove the underlying cause of the body's allergic reactions. Since allergies are affected by a defective immune system, boosting the immune response is one approach that can be used to prevent allergic reactions. Selecting a colon cleanser that removes toxins, and brings my body back into balance was what I set out to find.

I researched several colon cleansers and chose one based on my goals, all natural ingredients, testimonials provided by independent blogs, and one that would fit my lifestyle (I wouldn't take off two weeks from work to just sit on the toilet all day). But I didn't purchase one just yet. Then one day, I was in a hair salon and a fellow patron over heard me talking to my stylist about using a colon cleanser. She interrupted me to recommend the very same product that I was already considering. She said she suffered from eczema and acne. She used this particular colon cleanser and became free from all her ailments without changing her everyday lifestyle. I purchased the colon cleanser that same night.

After 30 days of the colon cleanse, I too was free from all allergy symptoms, even in the thick of ragweed allergy season. My psoriasis also disappeared, never to return. No more itchy eyes, no more embarrassing nasal drip, no more hay fever, no more scaly psoriasis finger, no puffy eyes, no more dark circles, no more nightmares or chest pains, and no more medication.

I did not mention the product name in this article because this is not a sales pitch. This is a true story. Our bodies can not handle the amount of prescription drugs that the U.S. medical society has bombarded us with. Not to mention all of the prevalent toxic chemicals in our food that our bodies cannot process. When you combine these with every day pollutants and toxins in our environment it's no wonder why our bodies are under attack, they are full of toxins that it wants expelled.

There are plenty of reputable colon cleansers out there, so choose the one that is right for you. If you have to go to work, then a colon cleanser that oxidizes may not be best for you. These colon cleansers liquefy matter clogging your intestinal tract and colon, and many complain that fecal matter will seep out unrepentantly. So if Depends adult diapers are not your style, do not consider an oxidizing colon cleanser. Many will have "-oxy-" somewhere in the name. Also check out new options for allergy sufferers like the fairly new procedure, reminiscent of colonics, called Colon Hydrotherapy³.

But colon cleansing is nothing new whether you do a thorough enema or go for the colon hydrotherapy, or just opt for an all- natural colon cleanser. The key is to expel the toxins by cleansing the body's internal system; and boost the immune system, not just treat the symptoms with the temporary relief of medication.
