Enzymes…a closer look

Alpha-Gal, histamine, allergies, food sensitivities, product sensitivities, fume sensitivities, and this list can go on. I suggest you go back and read the posts I have written on these subjects. I will explain the possible core of why these things happen and my personal protocol.

The subject is very sensitive, as these things change our lives, and the lives of everyone around us. The subject is for enlightenment, encouragement, empowerment and hope. The process I lay out can create long-lasting options, easy to tweak and change as the body changes and improves.

Enzymes are the components that keep us alive. without them we would not live. The best book on this subject is Enzyme Nutrition, the food enzyme concept. I suggest you read this book.

A little background

June 2016 I had a tick bite on my thigh; it bothered me for a couple weeks. In February 2017, I had logged more and more reactions to beef and mammal products; these included fumes, live animals, and body fluids from my spouse if he ate mammal meat. By April 2017 officially tested for AG mammal allergy.

From August 2018-October 2018, I had a healing of AG and lyme; this included 40 days of oxygen hyperbaric therapy, eating super clean, and anointing. The months of October 2018 to September 2020, I had other issues came to surface unrelated to AG; these included higher reactions to bug bites and stings, non-mammal food issues, and hormone changes. Dairy and other mammal products were safe for me in these months. At the time, I kept mammal meats out of my diet; overcoming the fear of eating mammal meats is tough.

September 3, 2020, I tried SAAT for AG because the test showed it still in my system. Oct 2020, I broke out in hives all over my body. After a week, I figured out the hives were high histamine, mast cell-related and monthly cycle related (perimenopausal). I feel strongly I had a reverse reaction to the acupuncture triggering my histamine release and the mast cell complication. Acupuncture and SAST is not bad; for many people, it can create a new kind of monster in the system. I went in for the SAAT histamine and mast cell needles mid-November 2020; this was a 28 day program. I never had improvement.

NOW

I decided to do research that was solid with decades of backing. and find a sustainable solution.

The gut is hit hardest by AG, lyme and the histamines. Building the gut was crucial. I know the basic process of gut building kept me from having the severe symptoms that many have; living a very healthy, organic life helps greatly in these situations. From all my research into Lyme over the years I knew there was a connection to AG. The best resource for Lyme is Buhner. AG symptoms are in several of the Lyme and Lyme coinfections. I believe AG at its core is a histamine/lyme co-infection issue, due to the sugar protein it comes in on from the tick. I have written on this in my past blogs.

Moving on

Enzymes and adrenal balance are at the core of AG and lyme takes hold, becomes serious, or not. I decided to run full force. I did not want to live with this any longer. The first step was balancing the system.

Hair mineral analysis is a test I use with my clients to check the mineral and nutritional balances in the body. Using diet and nutritional support to provide essential compounds for healthy function can be foundational to a good treatment plan. Making sure that the balances are in check ensures the body will function at its full potential. With AG, minerals will deplete very rapidly. Part of mineral supplementation is actual adrenal (bovine) enzymes; with AG bovine is a NO. Using vegan adrenal supplement, minerals and vegan digestive enzymes begins the process of restoration. Quercetin, NAC, Probiotic, and digestive enzymes is the key to calming the histamines symptoms associated with AG. After 1-3 months, the next step can begin.

Transition to DAO enzymes continues the path of calming the histamines and mast cells. I used one a day for a week. I added one per day every few days until I got to two capsule three times a day; these are taken at every meal. I continued to take the list in the previous paragraph. After a month on DAO I began to add the actual bovine supplement for adrenal support, replacing the vegan version. The supplements I take are from the lab I use for the mineral analysis. They are made to be individually matched. Building the minerals, calming the histamines and adding the enzymes back into a depleted body feels so good. The enzymes Then comes the fun step.

I began to pick one histamine or mammal product a day, adding it back into my diet. It was amazing how it all came together. In the Enzyme Nutrition book, healing issues of this nature is all about building slow and steady. He describes how to take in small portions, wait a few days, repeat. Each person must take the path as their body leads them. I have over done it, cut back, and keep on moving forward at the pace needed. If I have had a small reaction, I just take extra Quercetin or NAC and Oxygen. OH! Oxygen is super key to all of this; let’s say a bit about that.

Chlorophyll (Chloroxygen) has been a daily liquid since I was diagnosed with AG and lyme. Take this daily for sure! Oxygen wipes lyme out, and a lot of other bad things. Read my oxygen article.

The best part is taking the first bite of meat. I took that first bite after four years. It was small and tasted so good. A couple days later I took another bite. All the while, I continue to take the enzymes, minerals, and DAO (beef) and lists in previous paragraphs, three times a day with meals. I am still in the process, taking small steps. It will be lasting and it will work better than any other way. Nutrition, gut health, stress management are important, but there is one more.

Yahweh was the one who gave me all the guidance and all the resources. I never did any of this on my own. Fear is a liar. AG can be done away with inside our bodies. You do not have to live with this. Now take action 🙂
