Elizabeth has been having allergies for as long as I can remember. Her triggers could be dust, cold air, food or at times unknown causes. Throughout her childhood, I used to force her drink cod liver oil. It did reduce her common colds. Then at one point when she was about eight, I bought spirulina powder imported by my cousin's good friend. I used to spend hours filling in capsules for her easy swallowing. That helped for a few years until she kept putting on weight. After taking her off spirulina for a few months, her allergies returned. You may be laughing at me by now, why not buy capsules in the first place? The reason is that pharmacy capsules don't work. I guess it has to do with the purity of the content. Shortly after we stopped spirulina, the supplier migrated to another country, ending my first workable solution.
A month back she switched food supplements. Since then she found herself going through healing crisis. Her allergies came on more frequently. She had mild rashes now and then. From past experience we know that this is a necessary stage before she will improve. After reading through more information, she decided to go through the detox. In five days, she will replace her daily three meals with liquid meal replacement. In between the liquid meals, she will take snacks of raw fruits and vegetables. In the process of this regiment, she will probably lose some weight. Looking at the BMI, she does not need to lose any weight.
On November 1, her first day of detox, she had diarrhea. Today is Nov 2, she had blocked nose in the morning, loose stool when she visits the little room, and runny nose in the evening.
