>>1534618I thought I'd post this in an honest effort to help out... with the usual caveats that this may not work for everyone.
I grew up with terrible allergies (hay fever), like, the kind that land you in the hospital once in a while.
In the military, I was issued some serious medication, but it was so strong I wasn't allowed to drive.
i was also a fat fuck who ate everything: my favorites were pancake breakfasts and cereals with milk and bread with butter.
One day, out of shame, I cut carbs out of my diet (this was a long time ago, i'm old) and lost weight.
I wasn't expecting it, but I noticed that going no carb eliminated 98% of my allergies
>went from 100+ days of awful, debilidating allergies to 1, and that 1 was just a few sneezes.I didn't need hospitalization nor did I need medicines.
I would occasionally revert to a regular diet, because, who doesn't like pancakes and cereals?
but a few months into normal eating, my allergies would slowly increase.
>is it the carbs?>is it the milk?I can't say for sure. I have enough education to know that n=1 is not science.
so maybe I'm full of shit, so I can't guarantee it will work for you, but if you have nothing better to try, try one of those two possibilities
1. try keto for 2 weeks: literally go into ketosis not for diet or other benefits, just to see if the allergies go down.
2. eliminate all milk products: I'm still not sure, but I gave those up too, except I still eat cheese and whey protein.
I know that keto is a fad right now, and others might accuse me of shilling for ketofags, but i'm not. that's why I won't specify who or where, just read up on it and try it for two weeks.
and if you notice any positive results, why not report here? actually, even if it fails, report here. as more data points might be educational.
maybe it might even spur some actual research on this curious phenomenon.
