Mattress Covers/Alelrgies/Mites

[Guest guest]

Hi,

Was looking for some suggestions of what to buy- My allergies are so bad this

winter and now I have to see the Ear Nose and Throat doctor. My ear has

scarring now, I wondering if it's from what they call glue ear or chronic

secretory otitis media from being congested all the time. I'm reading a book

which has some good info but not the author is not convinced of alternative

therapies- called Hay Fever.... by Jonathan Brostoff and Linda Gamlin- It has a

listing of bed covers in the back which are both breathable and tightly woven

enough to prevent dust mites from getting through- does anyone have any of these

and what are your opinions? Do you have to buy a new bed first?

Thanks for any info on mattress covers or treating allergies/sinus/ear problems.

I was doing peroxide every night but I have to get to the root of the problem

instead of just treating the symptoms.

I got scarring in my ear from using penicillin eardrops which was the

antibiotic they gave me for an ear infection. I had a reaction to it.

By 1998, my allergies were just about to kill me. A few times since then

I've nearly gone into shock over a few things, but have learned so much. I

was well into investigating this dust-free mite-free lifestyle back in 98 at

the urging of my then ENT Dr. The realization that this sterility of living

was impossible to afford and keep up was one of the things that drove me to

search for alternatives. We did get to the point of washing bedding often

and thoroughly and vaccuming religiously and having an air filter in the

bedroom, but all that is out the window now, thank goodness. Of course I'm

not going to reveal just how slack we really are about cleaning the bedroom

these days, but just this- the way we live in our bedroom now would have

hospitalized me ten years ago.

 

Allergies start in the gut. Candida perforates our intestines and proteins

that were not meant to pass do pass through the intestinal wall and they

cause allergies. Then external irritants make them worse (I still must avoid

ragweed).

 

I can't publish a tome here about it all, but you are barking up the wrong

tree. I strongly urge you to start learning everything you can about the

true causes of allergies- candida and gut dysbiosis.

 

I found enormous relief from two things: Colostrum, and the avoidance of all

things corn. I have recently learned the corn thing all over again and had

to restrict it even more.
