Re: your baby's eczema

[Guest guest]

Took this off-list at first, but now this is about kefir and raw dairy

so I am going to re-introduce it to the raw dairy chat list. Someone

may glean some helpful info from it.

Selena,

He must be little, so I would give the same amount as the cod liver oil

you are giving. If it doesn't work after a couple of weeks, I would up

the dosage little by little. If you get to 2 tsp. and still no effect,

then I would give up on that. His system may be different from mine.

That is quite possible, because if there is one thing I have learned for

sure, it is that everyone's body chemistry can be quite different. But

I bet you will see results quicker than 2 weeks on him.

I don't recommend soy or rice milk, as soy is full of phytoestrogens and

rice milk is none too tasty and full of carbs without nutrients. I

would try raw goat's milk if he has an allergy to raw cow's milk. If he

reacts even to that (since it is more absorbable than cow's) then that

means he has a food allergy to raw dairy. And really any food allergy

is an indication that perhaps he has what's called " leaky gut syndrome "

which I've mentioned before on this list--that's for sure. Sorry for

the repeat, but I can't help myself. LGS is caused from not having the

right bacteria in his gut to keep it healthy. The gut is SO important

to the immune system as the bacteria there manufacture the

immunoglobulins that the T-cells use to fight infections. If one

doesn't have good bacteria manufacturing lots of immunoglobulins, then

the t-cells are running around with no payload to unload onto

infections. Coconut kefir will introduce the right bacteria into his

gut, close it up and heal it, and make his food allergy go away. See if

tiny food particles are escaping through the intestinal walls into the

bloodstream, the white blood cells begin making antigens to combat those

foreign and unrecognized substances, and these food proteins sometimes

closely mimic proteins in our own body, like, say, the myelin around our

nerve cells--creating what's known as Multiple Sclerosis. So back to

the coconut kefir, then with the dairy-loving bacteria in his gut from

it, after about a year you will be able to re-introduce raw dairy

products without reactions. Make sense?
