What is Wheat Allergy?

Wheat allergy is an allergic reaction to foods containing wheat. Your immune system, which normally fights against infections, overreacts to proteins found in wheat and causes an allergic reaction. In some cases, people even show up allergic symptoms by inhaling wheat flour.

  • Cramps, nausea or vomiting
  • Diarrhea

What is Wheat Allergy? How to treat it with Homeopathy?

 

Mild or moderate allergic reactions are generally treated with anti-histamines, which are known to cause drowsiness and interfere in day-to-day working. For safe and effective allergies treatment, you can take help of homeopathy. The best part is that wheat allergy treatment in homeopathy has no side-effects. Homeopathy regards an allergy as an exaggerated response that results from low immunity. As the root cause of an allergic reaction is low immunity, homeopathic treatment aims to build specific immunity against known allergens and also develops general immunity against unknown allergens.

Clinical study: A study of 200 patients suffering from allergic hypersensitivity illnesses, including asthma, eczema, and other allergies including food allergy showed that homeopathy treatment for allergies was as effective as conventional treatment for allergies. Where most patients who were treated with conventional medicine experienced an aggravation of their allergic symptoms after stopping the medicine, only one-third of the patients in the homeopathy group experienced such an aggravation.

It was also seen that only one patient on conventional treatment experienced improvement of symptoms after stopping medication, compared to improvement in two-third of the homeopathy patients.

Patients in the homeopathy group reported a larger improvement in their general state of health and also experienced more positive change in their psychological well-being.

Here's how wheat allergy treatment in homeopathy helped Riya enjoy her favorite foods again

Riya was 7-year-old when she visited our clinic with her mother. Every time she used to eat foods made of wheat, she had difficulty in breathing and diarrhea. It became very difficult for Riya's mother to make her understand 'why she can't eat certain foods which kids of her age eat'. Riya was on anti-histamine pills for 2 years but nothing really worked for her condition. On recommendation of a family friend, her mother consulted our homeopathic doctor at the nearby clinic. The doctor took her detailed consultation and recommended an appropriate homeopathic remedy for her condition. The frequency and duration of her allergies decreased considerably over a period of 1 year and in next few months, she was not only disease-free but started relishing her favorite foods.

2 simple steps to better avert and manage wheat allergy:

  • Be cautious when eating out: While it can be difficult to ask a lot of questions about cooking methods and to trust the information you get but it's one of the primary treatments for wheat allergy. If you can't be certain that a food is wheat-free, it's best to bring safe food from home.
  • Watch for cross-contamination: Because wheat can get into a food product when food is being prepared or served in a place. This can happen on kitchen surfaces and utensils — everything from knives and cutting boards to a toaster or grill. Fried foods often have the potential to be cross-contaminated, because they can be fried in the same oil as foods that contain wheat.
