A member asked:
What tests will tell me exactly what my food, environmental, and chemical allergies are? and how can i deal w/ the die-off from a recent reaction?

Difficult: Allergies can be hard to treat as everyone may have some component of an allergy to one thing or another. There is a blood test called the immunocap that tests for either (or both) respiratory allergens or food allergens. If truly with allergic issues, best to see an allergy and immunologist who specializes in this field. Best wishes.
