N A E T (Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Technique) is remarkably effective. According to some European research, N A E T treatment results in marked improvement or cure in 80% to 85% of all cases studied, and that is consistent with the results we see in our office. The results seem even more amazing when one considers that the testing and treatment is totally painless and non invasive.

Health Problems that respond well to N A E T

Just a few decades ago, scientists discovered an intestinal condition that resulted in a porous intestinal lining. They named the condition Leaky Gut Syndrome, or just LGS for short. This porous intestinal lining, or LGS, allows food molecules that would normally be too large to pass through the intestinal lining to get through. Once these abnormally large molecules get through, they trigger a natural defense reaction whereby the body builds antibodies to identify the larger molecule as an invader, and attack it. The result of this antigen/antibody reaction is what we call an allergy/sensitivity, and any tissue in the body can express an allergy/sensitivity resulting in many of the common health problems prevalent today.

Once this LGS begins, a cascade of events occurs that results in increasingly more allergy/sensitivities, and the body becomes increasingly sensitive to not only food chemicals, but to environmental chemicals and airborne irritants such as pollen, dust, and mold. Even though specific nutritional and lifestyle modifying actions can be instituted to heal the Leaky Gut itself, the body still continues to make the antibodies it built in its' initial response. Therefore, the body remains sensitive to many dietary, environmental, and airborne chemicals that were not a problem before the LGS began.

Alcohol abuse, as well as many prescription and non-prescription drugs initiates LGS. Among the most common of these are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) like aspirin and ibuprofen, antibiotics, steroids, birth control pills, and vaccinations. Vaccinations can be a problem because many of them are preserved in a mercury solution. Mercury is one of the most toxic chemicals on the planet, and a child's body can handle just so much before it results in a toxic body burden.

The mercury in vaccinations has been implicated by some of the current research as a primary contributor to disorders like ADD/ADHD and Autism. Another initiator of LGS is silver dental fillings/amalgams that are composed of about 50% mercury. In many people, these amalgams release mercury slowly over the years and result in a chronic poisoning.

It has been theorized that all of the above initiators of LGS produce the porous gut condition by creating an imbalance between the naturally occurring yeast and bacterial residents (flora) of the intestines. This imbalance in the gut flora is termed dysbiosis, and it is dysbiosis that is the actual cause of the porous gut. In dysbiosis, yeast proliferate, and often migrate from the intestines to the urogenital area, so those who have suffered with urogenital yeast infections are suspect for LGS.

LGS is usually accompanied by sugar craving. Yeast needs sugars, simple carbohydrates, for its food source. When the body is in dysbiosis, the yeast secretes chemical messengers into the bloodstream that make the individual crave sweets.

It is important to take steps to help heal the damaged intestinal lining. Abstaining from simple sugars in the diet and supplementing the bacterial population that has been thrown into negative balance does this. It's called probiotic therapy, and consists of taking bacterial agents by mouth in pill or powder form. Additionally, probiotics should always be taken during and after antibiotic therapy, vaccinations, etc., to avoid dysbiosis and the Leaky Gut Syndrome.

Additionally, it is important to reverse the antibody/allergy patterns that have been established as a result of the Leaky Gut. This is the role of Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Technique (N A E T). Devi Nambudripad, R.N., D.C., L.Ac., Ph.D., M.D., postulated over a dozen years ago that most allergy/sensitivity started in the gut with food allergy/sensitivity and then cascaded into airborne and environmental allergy sensitivities. As more time passes, this theory is proving to be correct in most cases.
