What are allergies?
Medical scientists are still researching to find the exact cause and nature of allergies, but may not have all the answers for years to come. From a Western medical point of view, allergy is an over-reaction by the immune system.
In NAET, allergies are viewed from a wholistic perspective,
based on Oriental Medical principles. An allergy is a condition
of unusual sensitivity of one person to one or more substances
which may be harmless to the majority of other individuals.
In the allergic person, the allergic substance, known as an
allergen, is viewed by the brain as a threat to the body's
well-being.
Therefore, for our purposes, an allergy is defined in terms of
what a substance does to the energy flow in the body. When
contact is made with an allergen, it causes blockages in the energy
pathways called meridians, or we can say, it disrupts the normal
flow of energy through the body's electrical circuits. This energy
blockage causes interference in communication between the brain and
body via the nervous system. This blocked energy flow is the first
step in a chain of events which can develop into an allergic
response. Allergies are the result of energy imbalances in the
body, leading to a diminished state of health in one or more organ
system.
