Oh I know allergies are from vaccines. There was one study I found that compared vaccinated children to a population of unvaccinated Jewish children. Studies like these are extremely rare to find. I think the children were Orthodox Jews but I don’t remember. It was a population that mostly rejected vaccines and they found that the rate of allergies were over 90% higher in the vaccinated children. They also noted that the unvaccinated group consumed a lot of fermented foods like pickles. Those are known to be good for the gut.

My allergies have been horrible this year, last year it wasn’t that bad. I don’t eat seed oils or anything processed. How do you deal with it? I’ve been trying different remedies hoping to rid myself of it completely but I’m still suffering.

Yeah, no one wants to fund those sorts of studies, because they would produce uncomfortable outcomes. Similar things are observed in the Amish.

Previously I would rotate through antihistamines because nothing else worked for me, and I would suffer heavily without them. Not sure what I have done aside from cleaning up my diet and being mostly meat based over the past 3 years. Also haven't been sick since the end of 2020, which would be an annual guarantee before that. I still wonder if there were residual effects from the shot that many years ago which eventually wore off.

Especially when you can lose your license over it.

I used antihistamines many years ago but my allergies only got worse the next year and I ended up needing something stronger. So I stopped taking them because I didn’t like that path I was on. I have a friend that barricades himself indoors every spring until his allergies go away. Not a practical way to live but he refuses to try any natural remedies.

So strange. Some friends have had a lot of success with bromelain for it, but I never tried it personally.

What is that?

I don't have any experience with that one specifically even though I run a supplement company. It's a pineapple (stem) extract. If you did want to try it, consider using Thorne from the bigger brands if they have it. Most of the stuff out there is fake garbage in general.

What is the benefit of taking that over actual pineapples?

Fom an extract perspective you would essentially be isolating specific active compounds, perhaps flavonoids of some type, I'm not familiar with the species. That is typically how a lot of the research is done on certain plants; you find and isolate some active compounds and then run trials to see what potential benefits they provide. You then produce a standardized extract to have a specific amount of those compounds, and typically in higher amounts than would natural present in the raw material.

Many extracts include the raw plant material too, so you can often get all the nutrients from extracts too. Medicinal mushrooms are a good example of this. You would have to consume a lot of mushrooms to get the same actives as you do from an extract. It is also broken down through extraction which can make it easier or possible to absorb. When you boil a herbal tea, you effectively make an extract too.
