Guest guest Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 If you are allergic to any foods, it is a good idea keep on a four date rotation diet.. If you stay away from that food until the 5th day, you may be able to handle certain foods you otherwise may have allergic reactions to. You can develop an allergy to anything you eat on a daily basis. ei. It's certainly not a good idea to eat wheat everyday, wheat in any form, but you can try it every other 5th day and see how you tollerate it. Personally, I do not believe in never eating a food you're allergic too. If you accidentally eat it one day, who knows how severe your allergic reaction could be, because you haven't built up an immunity to it. snk1955@... wrote: Hey Barb, As I understand it, that diet is a guideline to be adhered to as closely as possible. Particularly with the first couple of weeks - one should try to follow it fairly strictly. But I don't think it is meant to be the gospel that all need to follow the letter for the rest of eternity. If you are not one that eggs bothers, then by all means, eat them sometimes. I would think that eggs are on there because often times those, that have allergic reactions to vaccines, are actually reacting to the egg whites that are in many vaccines. Eggs are a common allergen. Dr. M's diet is very good advice. But as is true with everything in this issue, that advice has to customized to each individual patient. Sharon I'm brushing up on Dr Marinkovich's info and in his diet he says 'no eggs'. His diet recommendations in general are to avoid ingesting mold and mycotoxins in food, and to eat low carb. For sure eggs are high carb, so the no egg suggestion must be to avoid either mold or mycotoxins. I can't figure out why eggs would be in that class. I know they can contain samonella but I don't know of any mold. Does anyone have a clue as to why moldies should avoid eggs? If I see him, I'm going to add it to list of question for him. I need to leave in as many things as possible, list is so small that I can eat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 I've heard about rotation diets but didn't know how they work. This is the first explanation I have understood. So if you are sensitive to a food, try to eat a small amount every fifth day. This way you may become tolerant of it. That makes sense.
