Hi,
I have recently developed a peanut allergy and pine nuts too, (so I think) I have an appointment with an allergist in a few weeks, anyway, I just made homemade applesauce (organic) and have been itching since I ate it. The same spots as the peanuts. SInce I am new to all of this, I need to ask if any of you have a reaction to fruits as well. I figured if it was cooked it would be ok. Maybe it's coincidence, but I am not really thinking that.
Thanks for your time.
No, nothing different, but I noticed fresh strawberries did it last night for the first time too. I guess I am hypersensitive right now.
Thanks for answering and caring.
I was thinking maybe there was peanut residue in whatever you used to cook your apples, but since you say fresh strawberries did it too, then, I guess I'm wrong. Keep us posted.
Barbfeik, something you said made me jump. My son had his first (and only, so far)reaction after getting 5 vaccines within 2 weeks (and the reaction came a week after getting the last vaccine). I was sort of blaming the vaccines, which I thought was just wishful thinking when he got a positive prick test, but now you've made me hopeful again. Are you saying that recent vaccination can "fake" an allergic reaction? Or that you become hypersensitive for a while after getting vaccinated? Or that a vaccine can actually cause an allergy?
Thanks!
Vaccinations CAUSE allergies. Peanut oil is used as a diluent in vaccines along with every other food oil on the planet. They can be mixed together and do not appear on the vaccine insert because it is a protected trade secret. You can read patents for vaccine adjuvants and read the list of oils that can be used.
Also food waste is used to grow the culture medium. Every food known can be in the food waste. Food waste is not to be used as the last batch of food for the culture and supposedly no trace amounts of the food protein from earlier feedings would remain.
The problem as I see it is the vaccine adjuvant causes the body to recognize those few molecules of food in the vaccine and greatly enhances the body's immune response to all protein particles in the vaccine.
But you can also read the ingredient list for vaccines. The first vaccination given to babies contains casein. Says so on the package insert for the Hepatitis B shot. And guess what is the first food allergy recognized in babies? Casein allergy. The vaccine is given between 0 and 2 months. Often given now before the baby leaves the hospital. And casein allergy (milk allergy) is usually recognized between the first couple weeks to two months.
Pneumococcal Conjugate vaccine is usually given between 1-2 months. It contains soy peptone broth. Soy allergy is usually noticed by 3 months of age. It goes on from there.
Injections of food protein is one of the methods used to cause a food allergy in experimental animals.
If you look at the history of vaccines and compare it to the growing incidence of food allergy, it correlates perfectly. The first recorded case of food allergy was in 1901. At that time there were several vaccines being used. Oil adjuvants were first used in 1919. The first case of nut (probably peanut) allergy recorded in 1920.
In 1960 children received 1-2 vaccines. 1980 children received 8-9 vaccines. 1988 it was recorded that four people died of peanut allergy. 1990 children received 10 vaccinations.
In 1997 1 in 250 children in the US had peanut allergy. Combination vaccines were introduced in 1999. By 2000 children were receiving 33 vaccines by the time they entered school. 2002 1 in 125 children had peanut allergy in the US. I submit to you that the only big difference in our modern lifestyle that can account for a doubling of peanut allergy in our young children is the huge increase in vaccinations.
There are food allergies in children who have not received vaccinations. If the child has a serious food allergy, the mother may have had injections of some kind that affected the baby or the baby may have been given medicine - antibiotic or Tylenol - as an infant. I read on one website that there are 19 studies that indicate that giving Tylenol to babies causes asthma. And it is interesting to look at the timeline of the increase of asthma in children which correlates with the introduction of Tylenol as a common drug. When Tylenol became an over-the-counter drug, the incidence of asthma skyrocketed. Antibiotics also kill the beneficial bacteria in the body which can cause a yeast overgrowth. An overgrowth of yeast in the sinus can be the cause of that stuffy nose. Antibiotics also fall under the trade secret protection of the government. You don't know all the ingredients of that medicine. It could have peanut oil in it. Peanut oil is considered so safe it doesn't have to be listed. I haven't studied the connection between antibiotics and peanut allergy but I have to wonder... Antibiotics also cause the body to have an enhanced immune response. They could also contain peanut oil as an unlisted ingredient. Glycerin can also be made from peanuts and is an ingredient of lots of medicines. Enough people are on this website... If anyone has a child with a severe allergy who did not have any vaccinations, the mother also took no medications or injections while pregnant or when giving birth, and the baby had no medications and still developed a food allergy.... please speak up. I don't think one exists.
Dr. Andrew Moulden has some facinating videos on Youtube. He shows live video of the blood in arteries and the effect of vaccinations on the blood. Instead of flowing normally through the bloodstream, white blood cells will roll along the side of the artery. When those large blood cells come to a capillary, they plug the capillary causing a "mini-stroke". Dr. Moulden has pictures of children showing the effects of these ministrokes: eyes that don't focus properly, a droopy side of the mouth, heads that tilt to one side...
Prick tests were used to determine that peanut oil is safe to be injected into children. "Pharmaceutical grade" peanut oil was used for the prick test. The peanut allergic patients did not react to the peanut oil. (Actually, there is no such thing as pharmaceutical grade peanut oil... only highly refined.) But I would like them to do the same prick test using the peanut oil mixed with an aluminum adjuvant. That has never been done.
Why isn't this mainstream medical knowledge? Why isn't that caring physician telling you what I am telling you? That physician got his training from medical schools that are funded by the vaccine industry.
Doctors only read the title and one or two sentences of medical studies and they are taught that any "non-mainstream" medical studies are garbage. One of the studies on peanut allergy that I read "proved" that there were no peanut allergies in children in Indonesia. The first thing they did when they rounded up a group of children is give them the skin prick test. They eliminated all the children who reacted then did the study on the children that remained. It said so in small print in the study that maybe eliminating so many children at the beginning caused the result. But that was not in the title or the short excerpt that physicians read. Most published medical studies are similar to that one.
So, you are on your own as a caring parent. You cannot rely on your physician to act in the best interest of your children. You have to read the pros and cons yourself and decide if your doctor is right or if the nutty non-vaxers are really nutty or sane.
I have a blog on this site. There is more info there.

It's a different food allergy but you can also be allergic to apples or an ingredient in the applesauce. Have you been vaccinated recently or taken antibiotics?
