About Allergy Elimination

What is Allergy Elimination?

Allergy Elimination is an integrated approach to the treatment and elimination of both dietary and environmental allergies. Using contemporary knowledge of energetic and natural medicine combined with ancient acupuncture energy theory, the protocol revitalizes the immune system in three ways:

  • Cleanses the body of damaging toxins
  • Repairs digestion of food and absorption of nutrients
  • Re-programs the allergic response

Why Do We Need It Today?

According to recent reports, roughly 60 million Americans today (one in four people) suffer from allergies to pollens, foods, chemicals, animals, and a whole host of other items to which we have traditionally maintained immunity. Most allergy sufferers typically seek relief from symptoms by using a gamut of remedies, including multiple antihistamines, inhalers, steroids, antiacids, and other pharmaceuticals.

Out of sheer desperation, many turn to allergy shots to escape their misery only to find temporary relief, if they find any relief at all. Allergy Elimination offers allergy sufferers an alternative therapy that is safe, effective, non-invasive, and has no adverse side effects.


Why Do So Many People Suffer From Allergies?

Allergies are an indicator that the immune system is breaking down. There are many factors that contribute to the immune system’s demise, but three main contributing factors are rampant in our current culture.

First is our increased chemical exposure to toxins. They are in the air we breathe, the water we drink, the foods we eat, personal hygiene products, cleaning products, construction materials, office supplies, plastics … the list is seemingly endless. There are 87,000 chemicals in commercial use in the United States, and 20 percent remain secret to the consumer. The human body is not equipped to process the volume of toxic exposure that we have today. The consequences negatively affect every system in the human body, especially the immune system.

Secondly, we need to look at the sheer volume of sugar consumption in this nation. Prior to 1900, the average American consumed less than 5 pounds of sugar per year. Today, that number has skyrocketed to over 200 lbs. per year! This translates to 223 grams or 47 teaspoons of sugar per day. But did you know that it only takes 10 teaspoons of sugar (one can of soda or equivalent) to immobilize the effectiveness of white blood cells by over 40% for five hours? White blood cells are responsible for destroying the virus and bacteria that enter the body. It is easy to see why we are so vulnerable to viral and bacterial infections. When the immune system is compromised due to sugar consumption, the body is much more vulnerable to the development of allergies.


A third concern that is weakening immunity and contributing to the rise of allergies is a yeast overgrowth, also known as Candida overgrowth. Due to the repeated exposure of antibiotics in our commercial meat products (dairy, eggs, meats) and chlorine in our water supplies, swimming pools, and sweeteners like Splenda, Candida’s risk overgrowth is extraordinarily high.

While antibiotics and chlorine are helpful to kill harmful bacteria that cause disease, they also kill the good bacteria in the body that are necessary for vital physiological processes, like digestion. These healthy bacteria also serve to prevent Candida from overgrowing. Keep in mind that all yeast feeds itself on sugars and will cause sugar cravings, which lead to diets high in carbohydrates and sugar. Consequently, in the body’s delicate balance, the combination of the typical American diet high in sugars and carbohydrates, along with reduced healthy flora damaged by antibiotics and chlorine, the perfect environment is created for Candida to overgrow. Eventually, Candida overgrowth leads to the development of food allergies, chronic sinus congestion, constipation or diarrhea, gas and bloating, and many common disorders that plague our modern society.
In addition to these, there are other lifestyle factors that contribute to weakened immunity. Lack of sleep, stress, anxiety, and excessive use of alcohol or drugs lead to the list of culprits that play their part in further weakening the immune system.

How Do We Repair Immunity?

The first step is to evaluate the particular factors that are contributing to your individual health profile: toxic load, Candida overgrowth, enzyme deficiencies, endocrine deficiencies, allergens, and other burdens that weaken the immune system. With guidance, you can detoxify and cleanse the body of toxic chemicals, reverse the growth of yeast, correct digestive deficiencies and make necessary dietary and lifestyle changes that will begin to put your immunity back on the road to health.

In addition to cleaning up the diet and repairing the body’s internal environment, there are energetic protocols available that “re-program” or “eliminate” the hyper-reaction that causes the allergic response. In the 1980s, while struggling to manage her own allergies, Dr. Devi Nambudripad, DC, L. Ac., R.N., Ph.D., discovered that her allergies could be re-programmed via the energy system with the use of acupuncture.

Consequently, she developed the first energetic allergy treatment protocol, Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique (NAET), and presented her first formal dissertation to SAMRA University of Oriental Medicine in June 1986. Over the years, other energetic allergy protocols were developed built upon Nambudribad’s core concepts and principles. Beth is advanced trained in three of these protocols and brings her vast collective knowledge into the treatment room when working with her patients.

By accessing the body’s energy system with kinesiology and acupuncture concepts, the hyper-reactivity to dietary and environmental substances can be re-programmed, reducing or eliminating the allergic reaction. Thanks to this multifaceted energetic approach, people all over the world have been freed from their allergies and have regained their health.


How Does the Re-programming Work?

Once we understand the underlying physiological areas that need balance, support, or cleansing, we can focus on what might need to be “re-programmed.” Prerequisite reading for this is What is the Bioelectric System on the About Acupuncture & Oriental Medicine page of this website. If you haven’t done so and are new to the bioelectric system, please do now before reading further.

As mentioned in the prerequisite reading, one of the auric radar’s primary functions is to detect everything that enters the auric field. When a frequency enters your auric field that the radar detects as neutral or helpful, the body is supported or at least not undermined. However, when a frequency enters your auric field that the radar detects as harmful, immediate energetic blockages or “short circuits” can be detected in the energy channels affected by the frequency. These energy blockages are the communication link to the manifestation of physical symptoms. In relation to the allergic response, how the aura detects a frequency (either helpful or harmful) seems to be the determining factor in the manifestation of allergies. Thus, this auric radar function appears to be the earliest trigger for the allergic response.

Practitioners of energetic allergy work have observed patients manifest symptoms to an allergen when exposed to purely the frequency of an allergen without a molecule of the offending allergen ever touching their skin, entering their body, or even entering their auric field.

The exposure was only the vibrational frequency of the allergen. Now that is a real head spinner!

Allergens (or anything that causes the energy system to block or short circuit) are easily detected energetically by merely exposing the auric radar to frequencies of substances and determining which frequencies cause an energy blockage. There are several ways to make this determination using electrical equipment or only using manual biofeedback testing.

Once frequencies that cause energy blocks (allergens) are determined, a trained practitioner can “re-program” how the auric radar detects the frequency, thus helping the auric radar to relax with future exposure. It has been observed that when the auric radar is not detecting a frequency as harmful, the physical response (allergic reaction) no longer takes place. It is truly an amazing phenomenon, and you really do have to see to believe it. But once you experience the shift, your life will never be the same. The possibilities are endless.
