Descrizione
Food Intolerance?
Food Sensitivity?
Food Reactions?
Could food be making you ill? How can you tell? Are you troubled by: Dairy? Wheat? Gluten? Nuts? Soy? Additives? Dr Ford's 30 years experience helps you get to grips with food allergy.
Unfortunately, many doctors have little knowledge of food reactions. Often, people with unexplained symptoms are told "there's nothing wrong with you." Food allergy symptoms can be diagnosed and treated. Why wait?
For example, Katrina writes on facebook:
“I took my eldest boy (now 23 mths) to the hospital when he had problems when 4 wks old: he was failing-to-thrive (not growing) and had feeding problems. But the pediatricians at the hospital didn't believe in allergies. Two weeks later we went to see Dr Ford. It turns out that Tomasz has multiple food allergies - no wonder he screamed when feeding and wasn't putting on weight!”

What this book is about
This book has been written to help you get to grips with food allergy. In fact, to solve your food allergy problems, and to answer all of your questions.
The central question is: How do you recognize food allergy symptoms - could food be making you ill?
So here is a complete set of guidelines/ information to help you to get diagnosed and then manage any food allergies. I want to help you and your children get better, quickly.
Often, people with unexplained symptoms are told, hopefully, wait until you grow out of it.
However, food allergy symptoms can be immediately treated. So why wait?
For example, Katrina writes on facebook:
I took my eldest boy (now 23 mths) to the hospital when he had problems when 4 wks old: he was failing-to-thrive (not growing) and had feeding problems. But the pediatricians at the hospital didn't believe in allergies. Two weeks later we went to see Dr Ford. It turns out that Tomasz has multiple food allergies - no wonder he screamed when feeding and wasn't putting on weight!
Denise says something similar
Also most doctors say they will grow out of a food allergy by the time they are 2 or 3. Not true in my son's case, and I had to fight tooth and nail to get my son tested. The head pediatrician insisted my breast milk had no nutritional value what so ever. Turned out the mucousy poos and constant rash was caused by a dairy and egg allergy, and this was the reason why he didn't put on any weight for nearly 3 months. Luckily I stuck to breastfeeding, as it helped heal his gut along with eating the right foods. My son is now 29 months old, thriving and growing :-)
And this is what Jessica said
I love the doctors who say the little guys 'can't be allergic until they are 2-3 yrs and have lived through the different seasons.' So much for that: my son was diagnosed with a laundry list of food and environmental allergies at 10 months. My daughter's list is shorter, but she was just over 15 months. Food allergies certainly can trouble little babies.
Doctors not trained in allergy
Unfortunately, many health practitioners and specialist have had no training in allergy. Although the science of food allergy is robust, many doctors choose to not believe
in food allergy. In medicine and health care, science and facts should be the guide to diagnosis and management. Not a 'belief' in an illness. As a pediatrician, could I also say that I do not believe in heart disease! Clearly, such a statement would be met with ridicule.
We have created a series of self-management eBooks:
Food Allergy: Food (for newly diagnosed food-allergy children)
Food Allergy: What? (this book: concepts, symptoms and problems of food allergy)
Food Allergy:Test & Treat (details about blood tests, medications and anaphylaxis)
Eczema! Cure It! (Find the triggers for eczema, then switch them off)
Going Gluten Free:how to get started (for families new to the gluten world).
