Allergies Are Fire Alarms

Don't disable your body's fire alarm system with antihistamines.
Fire! Fire!
Allergic reactions are fire alarms. As a teacher, I have trained countless children how to respond to the alarm bell. Drop everything and get to a prearranged safe place. Then call the fire department.
Is that what you do when your allergies sound the alarm or do you grab an antihistamine to disable it?
Toughies without Allergies
Have you heard people bragging that they do not have allergies, that they can eat anything they like, that nothing bothers them? I have watched these toughies. Most of them are no longer with us, because they have succumbed to a sudden stroke or to cancer. Until their premature demise, they lived in blissful ignorance while their bodies were bombarded with hazards with which they were unable to deal.
People with allergies learn to be careful about what they eat or what kind of air they breathe. They are sensitive to what bothers them. Toughies, on the other hand, tend to subject themselves to countless risks. Their body does not scream at them to stop the abuse. Their system gets so plugged with poisons that it cannot distinguish between beneficial and harmful substances. It loses the ability to expel toxins. Those get stored in various organs and glands until the body loses its ability to function.
In all the years of abuse, these people were not listening to their bodies, and their bodies no stopped sending out warnings.
Are you one of these people? If you are, would you like to reverse the effects of abuse to which you have subjected your body? There is hope for you, but it will take work.
Your system needs to be detoxified thoroughly. Don't expect to clean out in one year the toxins which took twenty years to accumulate. The process is slow and takes determination and discipline. I have known few people who have followed through on their resolves for any length of time. Most of them give up after a short effort and hide behind the guidance of a physician who can write out a prescription to cover up symptoms of trouble, a prescription designed to turn off the body's natural fire alarm.

Quite right. Fever is the body's way of burning the foreign invaders out of its system. That is why, at the first sign of a cold, German's raise the body temperature in the sauna or a sweat bath to ...
