Home Remedies to Treat Food Allergies

1. Avoid Food Allergens

A key part of relieving the symptoms of food allergies is identifying the foods responsible for the distress and eliminating them from your diet.

• To identify food allergens, write down everything you ate or drank in the 2 to 3 days prior to allergic symptoms appearing. Then, look for foods that were new to your body. Avoid such foods completely until your condition improves.
• You can re-introduce the food allergen slowly into your diet, but only after you recover completely. If the allergen causes symptoms again, it is best to avoid that food completely.

Before buying any kind of food, read the labels carefully to look for ingredients to avoid. Also, when ordering food in restaurants, ask for the ingredient list.

2. Apple Cider Vinegar

Due to its antihistamine and other medicinal properties, apple cider vinegar can help fight many of the symptoms of food allergies.

It helps restore several nutrients in the body, which in turn regulates the body’s immune response. Moreover, it helps restore an alkaline pH in the body.

• Add 1 tablespoon of raw, organic, unfiltered apple cider vinegar to a glass of warm water.
• Mix in 1 teaspoon each of raw honey and lemon juice.
• Drink this 2 or 3 times daily until you feel better.
