According to the Royal College of Physicians (in
Britain), at some time in their lives, one in three people will suffer
from an allergy-related illness that requires treatment. There are only
six NHS allergy clinics in the whole of the UK, and these tend to focus
on life-threatening allergies. Most people won't be referred to one of
these clinics if they are suffering, not from an allergy, but from one
or more intolerances. Instead, they may see an immunologist, a
dermatologist, a general physician, a chest physician, a
gastroenterologist, a rheumatologist, an ENT surgeon, and in the case of
children, a paediatrician. Of course, if you have more than one
symptom, you may see a number of them.
There is, however, a treatment available not
just for allergy, but also for intolerance as well as a number of other
illnesses, including Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/ME. (And intolerance has
now been recognised by the Royal College of Physicians alongside allergy
as a physical rather than a psychological condition, as many doctors
previously thought).

treatment is Enzyme Potentiated Desensitisation. EPD is a technique
which uses extremely small doses of allergens to cure people of their
allergies and/or intolerances (foods, food additives, a wide variety of
inhalants and Candida are just some examples). EPD is suitable for
allergies and intolerances ranging from the mild to the most severe (as
in anaphylaxis). |
