My immune system was "out of whack" for years. I suffered from increasingly serious allergies to quite a few substances. I took shots twice a week -- to no avail. I took many anti-histamines, steroids etc. The condition required that I wear a mask outdoors and also indoors around our pets. I stayed up a good part of the night coughing. I was miserable.

Then I went on a low-carb diet (no sugar, no potatoes, no flour et al). Within a few weeks my allergy symptoms began to abate. Now, after a few months, they are entirely gone. Seems like a miracle. No more medication, shots or masks. I can go outdoors in high allergy season and have no effects.

What we eat determines, in a large manner, how our various metabolic systems act. After much research, I now know why the sugars/carbs were causing my system to be a constant hyper-inflammation state.

By the way, I am also now free of my blood-pressure medication.

YEP, I’m probably similar to you....currently combatting candida (as my Naturapath thinks is the problem)...and I know sugar and flour are problems for me.
