Hi, Ligure,

My understanding of allergies is much different than yours. It was explained to me that we aquire allergies when our bodies cannot break down the components of a particular food or chemical, etc, into a usable unit. Anything that is not usable AND gets into the blood stream is considered by the body to be an antigen. Our immune systems are encoded to attack antigens. Foreign substances get into our blood streams via tight junctions (like bricks in a wall, which form the wall of the gut, for instance) which are usually closed and are supposed to be closed, but react to glutens and a few other things by opening. (I have read that EMFs cause tight junctions to open.) As a celiac I am aware of this because celiacs have tight junctions which stay open not only in the small intestine, but in the blood brain barrier and lungs. (Some say also the heart.) This is why celiacs have such a high incidence of auto-immune disease--the immune system is always attacking something
or other, usually undigested food particles.

Our bodies cannot use many nutrients without "carriers" which escort each assigned nutrient across the intestinal wall at particular sites. B12, for instance, which you mention having problems with, is assigned a particular site where it crosses and this is also one of the first sites to be damaged in celiac disease or from gluten intolerance. The site for calcium is also one of the first to be damaged by gluten intolerance and cd. It sounds to me like you do not have an allergy to either of these, but instead have gluten intolerance or celiac disease. In celiac disease, you must not eat any glutens which are contained in wheat, rye, barley, and oats (by contamination). Nor can you eat any derivitives of these. In 6 months or so of avoidance, your small intestine will begin to heal and this will cure you of your "allergy" to B12 and calcium. I had problems with these nutrients as well. When I was finally dxed with cd, I had osteoporosis from calcium deficiency and
a dexa scan of -3.50. Two years after going glutenfree, my dexa score had improved to +1.75.

I am not saying that NAET or Bioset cannot work (I know nothing of either, btw). But if they work they do it on a different principal than simply "retraining". What exactly is NAET and Bioset? Have these worked, for instance, for your allergies to B12 and calcium?

And now the different level.

Given that the body has a means of taking care of its allergen/toxic
load (part
1), why did it accumulate the load in the first place? Or more to the
point why
do some folks have an allergy to some substance while others do not? These
questions have plagued me.

So, the body responds to an allergen because it was trained to do so. This may
seem strange (at least it did to me) considering that there are many people's
bodies which do not adversely respond to a given allergen (i.e. wheat) while
others have a problem with it. How did the body acquire such an adverse
response? Some might say genetics. I am going to lay that one aside just
because that is the typical catchall when the "expoerts" don't know the
answer.
It may be the "answer" in some cases, but there or other answers that can be
found before we throw in the genetic towel.

How else was the body trained? Simple explanations are in order.

Prolonged exposure, over exposure, or exposure at the wrong place
It often happens that where at one time one has no allergic response to
something to discover one day that they can no longer tolerate it. This occurs
because the immune system got engaged at a deeper level than it once needed to
or "decided" to engage the substance in an adversarial fashion. One example of
this is the "leaky gut" syndrome. If the digestive system does not metabolize
the bread and break its proteins down into amino acids, the immune system will
engage the proteins as if they were foreign substances and develop an allergy.
I because allergic to calcium and B12 in this way. And both of these
are needed
by the body.

Immune system is weak during exposure
This can happen by weakened associaiton. For instance if you are weakened by
exposure to some chemical and you are eating bread during that exposure, your
immune system may mistakenly react to the bread. The weakness may not be
physical even. It could be emotional,

I am sure there are other ways of training, but they are similar.

Now the question is how to "untrain" the response.

This is where the next level begins. Through energetic-type of medicine like
NAET and Bioset the body's immune system is retaught to no longer consider a
substance as an allergen. It sort of makes peace with the allergen and
turns it
into a peacable neighbor. So instead of having an attacking type of response
which leads to histamine reactions and thus cascade into an allergic response
it allow the substance to coexist and even just pass on through the
body if the
substance is of no use.

Now this energetic medicine goes to the level that your body's "field"
can tell
when it comes in proximity to a substances "field" what that substance it. If
your body does not want that substance (i.e. allergic response), it will begin
to respond accordingly.
