Carrot allergy: the body reacts to certain proteins

The doctor discovered that Britta is indeed allergic to carrots. After all, almost 22 percent of adults are like her. The cause is usually a cross-allergy to birch pollen. This means that the body was originally allergic to certain proteins in the pollen. As birch trees and carrots are similar in their protein structure, the body can no longer distinguish between the two and reacts to both. Ergo: You develop an allergy to carrots relatively suddenly. Those affected must then avoid the allergen for the rest of their lives or be desensitized to it. However, the injection therapy is lengthy and takes around three years. In the acute phase, allergy sufferers are often treated with corticosteroids. However, this has considerable side effects and can weaken the bone structure and immune system.

Very few people know that there is a third way of treating allergies. A carrot allergy can also be treated in this way. This is a natural healing method developed by the physician and scientist Dr. Karl Eugen Theurer. His approach: the body itself has the best antidote for healing. His method, the Allergostop® procedure, is autologous, i.e. the body's own blood preparation. It should also be able to treat an allergy to carrots.

The patient's own blood becomes a vaccine against carrot allergy

Blood is taken from the patient at the height of the allergy. A serum activator is then added to the antibodies in the blood, which converts them in such a way that they are able to cure the allergy. The diluted solution can be injected as the body's own vaccine. The special thing about the procedure: It can be administered by a doctor or alternative practitioner, even while the allergic symptoms are present. There is no need for the time-consuming allergy test in advance. The procedure is well tolerated, can even be used on children over the age of six and shows very good results after just four to eight weeks. 80 percent of food allergy sufferers no longer had any symptoms after the treatment. Britta could also get her carrot allergy under control in this way. All that is needed for treatment is the new Allergostop® kit, which must be ordered from a doctor. The only downside is that the method is not covered by statutory health insurance. The costs amount to 300 to 500 euros.
