Not only can naturopathic medicine work as well or better. It can spare children from needing stronger and more problematic drugs as they get older. Eczema, asthma, and allergies are sometimes referred to as the allergic triad. In all three conditions, the body has an allergic reaction that’s triggered by the over-production of histamine. Normally, histamine, a chemical compound produced by immune cells, aids in digestion, the sleep-wake cycle, and in cuing inflammation to fight infections. When histamine is out of balance, the immune system can overreact to certain foods (like peanuts, dairy, fermented foods) and environmental allergens (like pollen, dust mites, pet dander) which are typically harmless. That’s when a person has symptoms such as runny nose, sneezing, watery eyes, itchy skin, and sneezing. Pharmaceutical drugs, especially steroids, are often prescribed for eczema and, at times, asthma as well. But steroids suppress the entire immune system, meaning children can become more susceptible to colds, flu, and other viruses. Some antihistamine drugs, such as Benadryl, taken over a long period of time, have been linked to cognitive decline as people reach 65 and beyond. Our doctors know how to help kids thrive and enjoy their childhood without the drugs. Their approach is always to first determine the cause(s) of a child’s allergies, asthma, or eczema. Why is their immune system attacking substances that normally it wouldn’t? Once they have the answers, a healing food plan is tailored for each individual child. To further treat symptoms and promote overall strengthening, the doctors may prescribe medical grade natural remedies. These are laboratory certified, health-promoting vitamins, minerals, nutrients, supplements, herbs, peptides, low dose immunotherapy, and other healing remedies from the U.S. and all over the world.
