Peanut Allergy - Are Possible Solutions Coming From Traditional Chinese Medicine?

Expert Author Kathi Jo Robinson

The typical peanut allergy encompasses approximately 1% of the United States population but although this number may sound so small it translates into an estimated 1.5 million people who must fight, and pray for their life every single day.

Many of these people can be so sensitive that absolutely anything can result in a serious allergic reaction which can even lead to their death. Peanut dust in the air, kissing the lips or holding hands with another individual who previously had some peanuts or peanut oil in some food they ate earlier that day, touching a doorknob, a knife, a writing pen or the steering wheel of a car can all lead to serious consequences.

How Can Traditional Chinese Medicine Help With Allergy Care

The field of TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) has actually been treating food allergies for hundreds of years in other countries around the world. Here in the United States though, pressure from conventional medicine, the non-regulation of herbs and any kind of standardized dosages and lack of education or licensed practitioners has prevented any kind of widespread use of a treatment program utilizing TCM.

All of this is slowly changing though as more and more people learn and try some alternative options which are available.

What Is FAHF-2

With a growing rate of increased frequency here in the states, brought on primarily because of on-going research studies which have been developing for the last 5 years, FAHF-2 is an herbal therapy formula which utilizes two separate herbal preparations used in combination to effectively control and minimize peanut allergies or many other types of food allergies. Consistent tests and studies have been followed which show promising results also for tree nuts, fish and shellfish allergies which also seem to benefit from this program.

Unfortunately though, to date, with testing programs not completely finalized, this therapy program can not be released to the general public. But finding a practitioner of TCM, explaining your sensitivity and requesting help may offer you or a family member some sense of security and further safety from an allergen which is almost impossible to control accidental exposure of,

I have been following the lives of a large percentage of people for the last twenty years because of the close proximity of an allergen research facility within blocks of my store. These people have grown up from children to adulthood within my walls. Open-minded thinking, research, high costs and answers to finding another way for their safety have led many to give alternative medicine a try.
