The Food Allergy Cure or How to Live 365 Days a Year

The Food Allergy Cure: A New Solution to Food Cravings, Obesity, Depression, Headaches, Arthritis, and Fatigue

Author: Ellen W Cutler

Food allergies are one of the most common chronic medical conditions. Dr. Ellen Cutler, a chiropractor and naturopath, has spent ten years studying enzyme therapy and nutrition and their relationship to allergies, asthma, immune disorders, and chronic diseases. Using methods derived from many disciplines -- including chiropractic, Eastern medicine, immunology, environmental medicine, genetics, and Western physiology and physics -- Dr. Cutler has found a way to combat allergies at their root: the immune response. Her system of techniques, called BioSET, combines muscle testing, detoxification, enzyme and diet therapy, and chiropractic manipulation to desensitize people permanently to every kind of allergy, not only those caused by foods.

To understand how Dr. Cutler's techniques work, it's helpful to think of the body as an electromagnetic organism in which energy flows along invisible pathways called meridians, or channels. Essentially, an allergic response is caused when these pathways are blocked by the immune response to an allergen. Dr. Cutler's techniques actually unblock these pathways, thus stopping the body's violent immune response. The Food Allergy Cure teaches you how to test yourself to determine the allergies you have and gives you simple techniques you can perform on yourself or your children to begin to lead an allergy-free life. In addition, there are helpful lists of foods and enzymes to correct digestive disorders such as lactose intolerance, chronic heartburn, irritable bowel syndrome, and constipation. Dr. Cutler also recommends foods that support the immune system's functioning and work to alleviate such disorders as hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, fibromyalgia, colitis, herpes, and candida. This blending of Eastern and Western medicine is so easy to implement and will be hailed as a new paradigm of twenty-first-century medicine.

Having personally treated allergy sufferers and counseled on appearances on QVC, Extra! and Lifetime, Dr. Ellen Cutler argues that although one-third of all Americans suffer from food allergies now a chronic, even epidemic, condition there is a cure. Cutler's answer: the BioSET system of identifying and eliminating food allergies by combining affordable, easy and efficient practices, including chiropractic, nutrition and detoxification, all of which she explains clearly and thoroughly in The Food Allergy Cure: A New Solution to Food Cravings, Obesity, Depression, Headaches, Arthritis, and Fatigue.

Library Journal

BioSET (Bioenergetic Sensitivity and Enzyme Therapy) is a combined approach to diagnosing and treating food allergies. Cutler, a chiropractor currently pursuing an M.D. and author of two books on alternative medicine (e.g., Winning the War Against Asthma and Allergies), developed this technique from principles based on acupuncture/ acupressure, chiropractics, homeopathy, kinesiology, and enzyme therapy. She introduces the reader to the mechanisms of food allergies and to her BioSET technique, which emphasizes the removal of blockages in electromagnetic pathways brought about by the allergic reaction. Although her reported treatment results are impressive, she presents very little substantial data or scientific background. Statements of fact are not backed up with references, and the brief bibliography includes no research articles. Cutler refers only in passing to NAET (Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique), upon which BioSET is heavily based. NAET, a more documented technique, was developed by Devi Nambudripad and explained in her book Say Goodbye to Illness (Delta, 1999). Not recommended. Andy Wickens, King Cty. Syst.

How to Live 365 Days a Year

Author: John A Schindler

One of the great self-help books of all time, How to Live 365 Days a Year has sold more than 1 million copies and has been translated into 13 languages. Author John A. Schindler, M.D. introduced the powerful concept of EII, or "emotionally induced illness," long before most physicians were aware of the connection between emotions and physical health. Our new edition of this 195556 New York Times bestseller, a classic of the genre, has updated health and nutrition information by a leading health and fitness expert. Dr. Schindler's original research explains how prolonged unhappiness sets off negative responses in the nervous and endocrine systems, producing symptoms of disease, and offers techniques for coping with EII. His landmark advice on positive lifestyle, exercise, and nutrition speaks volumes to today's self-aware readers. Topics include achieving emotional satisfaction, attaining sexual maturity, dealing with stress in the workplace, and meeting the challenge of the aging years.John A. Schindler, M.D. co-founded the distinguished Monroe Clinic in 1939, where he advanced his revolutionary theories on psychosomatic medicine. His 1949 radio broadcast, titled "How to Live a Hundred Years Happily," was so well received that transcripts of the show were printed and sold by the thousands. This led him to write the highly influential bestseller How to Live 365 Days a Year. Dr. Schindler died in 1957.

"Emotional stress produces physical illness" is the sturdy, and somewhat rusty, hook from which all of Schindler's observations on how to live a better life dangle. Originally published in the pre-biotech era of the mid-1950s, the book introduced readers to the idea that an elevated stress level, related to everything from financial insecurity to the fear of dying, can manifest itself in the nervous and endocrine systems, resulting in symptoms that mimic diseases-a syndrome that Schindler dubbed EII (emotionally induced illness). It is from this familiar, though certainly relevant, concept that Schindler tethers a surplus of one-liner philosophies for achieving happiness: "Get up on the right side of the bed," "Allow yourself the delightful feeling of being happy" and "Avoid running your misfortune through your mind like a repeating phonograph record." The introduction to this new edition, by health care journalist Holtz, cautions that "Schindler's message-that right thoughts bring health and wrong thoughts bring disease''-can be dangerous if carried too far. This warning is essential as one peruses the cheerful, overly simplistic advice (including the prohibition of sex outside marriage) that ultimately-like a phonograph record-has limited relevance to today's world.
