Comments on: Why Are Food Allergies in Children on the Rise? http://pokedandprodded.health.com/2008/10/29/causes-child-food-allergy-epidemic/ Adventures in being sick, getting better, staying well, from the editors of Health.com Sun, 22 Nov 2009 17:45:16 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: Lisa Bee http://pokedandprodded.health.com/2008/10/29/causes-child-food-allergy-epidemic/#comment-2881 Lisa Bee Thu, 13 Nov 2008 14:04:54 +0000 http://healthpoked.wordpress.com/?p=3656#comment-2881 Millions of people know exactly why their kids are getting food allergies. It is called Genetically Modified food. With no labeling, contamination to organic foods, and a proven record of causing not only food allergies but DEATH. Many are NOT buying the toxic waste foods in their local grocer. Ha ha ha. And they think they will fix the global economy? No they wont. People are sick of being poisoned with GMO's and Roundup. The bug spray is IN the food. According to Monsanto it magically disappears as if they have a magic wand up their arse. But People know better.

Many children are born allergic. Born with asthma. Born with autism. These things aren't a fault of yours when raising your child out of the womb. The mother, I'm sure, had her vaccines, has eaten processed foods, same as her mother before her. There's a few studies out there that show a sharp decline in certain ailments in children (such as allergies and asthma) when the mother overloads herself with certain foods while pregnant (in the case of allergies, its apples). Small changes in DNA have a huge impact on our children. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if they found a link to certain processed food additives or hormones and autism.

And I'm also easily convinced regarding the hygiene theory. Here's one I heard recently from a friend who had 2 children via IVF: her doctor told her that IVF babies are more prone to food allergies. That certainly makes sense from the perspective of what's-different-these-days-from-previous-days, simply b/c there are more IVF babies born today (compared to 15-20 yrs ago). But is there any explainable causation? One of my friend's children has no food allergies, the other has deadly allergies to eggs and nuts (both are IVF). Is there any credible discussion of this in the medical community? The change in pregnancy diets is a really interesting possibility. And I’m also easily convinced regarding the hygiene theory.

I would expect that early babies would not have a completely developed digestive system but would be exposed to the allergens as a result of their early birth. Even breast fed babies would be exposed unless their mother avoided those allergens. My son was 4 weeks early and started having problems three days after birth. He is 2 now and cannot have gluten, milk/casein, and possible red food dye or some other thing I am currently trying to figure out.

It's only an idea, but I don't think kids are exposed to the things that we used to be exposed to. Plus I agree with the too much hygene.

Nowadays our immune systems are weakened by something hiding in highly processed foods, but the effect is seen after a long time so no doctor makes the link. In children's case they inherit our modern diseases and adopt our modern lifestyle quicker and the results are showing. Didn't you said that in less developed countries there are fewer allergies? There is a reason for this, but is not more exposure to pathogens - like playing in the raw sewage. It is because in the less developed countries it is less exposure to a certain steroid that has been added in our daily food and supplements. That affects our immune system efficiency, then bacteria flourish more easily and "voala" - allergies, diseases. There is a saying "Less is more" . In this case is is true indeed.
