Guest guest Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 From Ashton Embry about allergy testing: Other specific foods may be problematic for a given individual and various blood allergy tests and elimination diet techniques are useful in uncovering these. It is important to realize that such tests will not identify the foods primarily responsible for the immune reactions which result in MS. Such foods produce cell-mediated reactions whereas the blood-allergy tests only identify foods which result in humoral (antibody production) reactions. Humoral reactions may also play a role in MS and that is why it is wise to avoid foods identified on the tests as well as the foods listed above (gluten, dairy, legumes, sugar, sat. fats) which are the prime suspects in MS. These foods must be avoided regardless of the results of blood-allergy tests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
